But I don't know how to make this happen. They are on my PC.

Any help? They are very cute, short, and worth it.

"comer" means walk
"tudo" means some form of you
"que" means what


I don't know "voce" or "puder", though.

And I'm glad you guys liked them.

Actually, "comer" means "to eat".

Unless we're not talking about spanish here. I don't recall the pointy hat being on any spanish letters. (Just watched the video).

I put "Tudo que voce puder comer" into Babelfish, and got "Everything that voce will be able to eat" in return. Putting "you" in and going English to Portuguese gave me "voce" with the circumflex over the "e" back. So it's Portuguese and means "Everything that you will be able to eat", as near as I can figure.

The whole thing is "Todu que voce puder comer. Por R$30,00."

Okay, I think it's portuguese. Close to Spanish.
"Everything that you will be able to eat" (literally) and a price.

Or, "All you can eat. For R$30,00" (how much ever that is).

"Toda terca, no almoco" -- "Every Tuesday, at lunchtime" (or close to this)

Guess the bear is on his way to a Portuguese restaurant. :)

R stands for reals, I think, so the bear is in Brazil. Right now, I'm figuring out how much that meal costs in various currencies. This is fun.

It's snowing in Brazil? Or did is the polar bear just starting out for Brazil? Maybe he still has a long way to go. Is this his favorite restaurant or what?

Well, I couldn't figure out what currency Portugal uses (the euro? better look it up, I guess), so I thought it was Brazil.

Maybe it's just a really good restaurant though.

I looked it up. Portugal uses the euro. So I still think it's Brazil.

Oh, I believe you -- probably a good guess. I'm just wondering what the polar bear has to do with all you can eat -- much less for a restaurant in Brazil. (That's a mystery to be answered by the makers of the ad)

Oh, sorry.

I wonder too. Maybe it's just a polar bear because it's kind of cute, and it's an animal that probably eats a lot, since it's large.

Oh. Duh. They must have used that clip as if to say the bear just ATE at the restaurant. He's just finished, and can't move. :smack:

That would be all you can eat for about $11.58 American.

I've been to Brazil, both Rio and Salvador. When in Rio, we ate at a churrascaria named Porcao, world famous apparantly. The meal ran about $25 there in 1996.

They brought us grilled meats and side dishes until we were stuffed. Sausages, turkey wrapped in bacon, leg of lamb, steak, chicken, shrimp, prime rib - we ate it all and had seconds.

When we left, I felt like the polar bear.

This video is even funnier now that I know that it's an ad for a Brazilian restaurant. I just got back from a week in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Just about any restaurant you go to they will feed you until you beat them with a stick and yell at them to go away.

Like Mr. Moto, I felt like the bear every night coming back to the hotel room.

Heh. I felt the same when I went to the USA. I remember ordering a starter and a main dish. I recall thinking that the side salad alone would have been enough for me and that the main dish would have fed a family of 4. One of my colleagues ordered pie at the end, and it looked large enough to cause gravitational disturbances in nearby planets.

I liked the penguin video. That guy was happy! It was funny he was doing a mad one and his pals were just going about their business.
