Hi Tim, I’m in doubt about a thing:

Do you happen and By chance are similars or not? Or by chance is just used at the end of sentences.
If yes, could I use both of them?

Thanks a lot!

  Yes, you can use “by chance”. It’s just another way of saying it. “Do you happen to” is a ready-made phrase (frase pronta).

Olá Tim.

“I might happen to stop by there” pode ter o mesmo sentido se traduzíssemos
“Qualquer coisa, dou uma passada lá!” ou “Passo lá quando der” ??

  Essa frase literalmente diz: Pode ser que eu “por acaso” passe por lá. Você está dizendo que é possivel que você irá passar por lá, mas sem ser planejado. Então a sua primeira tradução é uma boa opção.

Hi Tim! What’s good?

So, could you make a video explaining the subtle difference between take a hint, take the hint and read between the lines; like, when person who realize something tha wasn’t said.

Thank you.

  Sure, Otávio. Sure, we’ll try to do that. They are very similar, but basically it is this: A “hint” is equivalent to a “indireta” in Portuguese. When you “read between the line”, you can read “nas entrelinhas”.
