In Brazil<\/a>, when we generate an expense through an online purchase, shopping even utility bills, we may choose to pay these with a credit card online or print a “boleta” which can be paid at the “banco.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boleta = bill<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banco = bank<\/p>\n\n\n\n

today, I went to pay a boleta at the banco. The name of the banco was “Caixa Economica” which roughly translates to “saving box.” What a creative name for a banco!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bank usually closes at 2 PM, so I had to hurry to get there on time. When I arrived, I walked in and passed through the X-ray security door. Then I went to get my “senha.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Senha = password, key etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My senha was “caixa 378.” So I sat down and looked at the screen flashing the “senha” of whose next. Soon mine appeared: Caixa 378: guiche: 24. That means that the person with senha 378 has to go to teller 24. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I got up and went to the teller and I successfully paid the bill and received a “recibo.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recibo = receipt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note, when we go to a bank in the English world, we may retrieve a “number” which places us in an organized line. We have different words for several concepts that are named by the same word “senha” in Portuguese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Example: password = senha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

number (which allows entry to somewhere) = senha.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
