Portuguese/English false friends (5)

【电灯泡】
这个词有两个意思，一个是指灯，另一个是指在不合适的时间出现的人。

比如：
Lisa:  嗨，Lily,今晚我男朋友约我一起出去吃饭，你和我一起去吧。

 Lily:  额...还是算了吧，我就不要去当电灯泡了。你们两人去就好了，路上注意安全。

The word has two meanings. One refers to a lamp and the other refers to a person who appears at an inappropriate time.

For example:
Lisa: Hi, lily, my boyfriend asked me out to dinner tonight. Come with me.
Lily: Well Forget it. I'm not going to be a third wheel. You two just go. Be safe on the way.

LECTURA COMPRENSIVA.


ESTE CUENTO NOS HABLA DE: El Expreso de la Medianoche: Un Enigmático Juego.


El Orient Express, un tren de lujo que serpenteaba a través de la noche europea, fue escenario de un macabro juego. Un rico banquero fue encontrado sin vida en su compartimento, acuchillado. La puerta estaba cerrada desde dentro, y cada pasajero parecía tener un motivo para el crimen.

El detective, un hombre de mirada penetrante y métodos poco convencionales, se vio envuelto en un laberinto de mentiras y alibis. A medida que la investigación avanzaba, descubría que cada pasajero guardaba un secreto oscuro y que el asesinato era solo una pieza de un rompecabezas mucho más grande.

Una carta anónima, escrita con una tinta invisible, revelaba una conexión entre el banquero y una sociedad secreta. Una joya robada, con un grabado antiguo, parecía ser la llave para descifrar un enigma centenario. Y un testigo clave, un niño autista con una percepción extraordinaria, describía visiones crípticas que desafiaban toda lógica.

A medida que el tren se acercaba a su destino, el detective se encontraba cada vez más cerca de la verdad, pero también más lejos de la cordura. ¿Era el asesinato un simple acto de venganza, o formaba parte de un plan mucho más elaborado? ¿Y quién era realmente la víctima?

Загадки! 

With both a European and Asian side, Istanbul really is where East and West meet. Here are some of the city's top tourist attractions.

Sultanahmet
Many of Istanbul's most famous buildings are in Sultanahmet on the European side. Tourists can enjoy the beautiful Blue Mosque, built by Sultan Ahmet I in the 17th century. Or they can take a trip to the city's past in the Hagia Sophia — which has been both a Christian church and a mosque before being made into a museum.

Spice Bazaar
While the Grand Bazaar is the most famous Istanbul market, the Spice Bazaar offers a more fun and colorful shopping experience. Almost any spice can be found in the Spice Bazaar, as well as Turkish candies — and the shops will let you try a little bit of everything!



Kadiköy
The Kadiköy neighborhood on Istanbul's Asian side is popular with young people for its pubs, cafes and music venues. Chat with artists and writers in the tea garden of the Nâzım Hikmet Cultural Center, which celebrates the life of one of Turkey's most famous poets. After that, shop for antiques on Tellalzade Street.



The Bosphorus
The Bosphorus is between Istanbul's two sides. There are many Bosphorus boat tours to choose from, including ones with meals and entertainment. For the best price, take one of the city's public boats — tickets cost less than $1, and they offer the same sights.



Food
Istanbul is famous for its food. Enjoy some meze — many small plates of food — with fish and the local spirit, raki. Or buy a simit — a round bread covered in seeds — from the street sellers. Don't forget to try a cup of Turkish coffee or a glass of black tea with lots of sugar.
