Pooh and his friends on spelling

Pooh e seus amigos na ortografia

Pooh said to Piglet: ‘It’s all right, Piglet. Spelling is easy once you get started.’ 

Pooh disse ao Piglet: "Está tudo correto, Piglet. Soletrar é fácil depois que você começa."

Piglet nodded. ‘Getting started is the worst bit.’ …

Leitão assentiu[concordou]. "Começar é a pior parte."

Christopher Robin jumped onto the tree stump and made an announcement. 

Christopher Robin pulou no toco da árvore e fez um anúncio:

‘Friends, the Spelling Bee has been cancelled, because spelling is diffi cult enough at the best of ti mes, and impossible in the rain.’

"Amigos, o concurso de soletração foi cancelado, porque soletrar já é difícil o suficiente, mesmo nas melhores épocas, e impossível na chuva." 

• David Benedictus, Return to the Hundred Acre Wood, 2009, Ch. 2, ‘In which Owl does a crossword, and a Spelling Bee is held’. Adapted. 

You can’t help respecting anybody who can spell TUESDAY, even if he doesn’t spell it right; but spelling isn’t everything. There are days when spelling Tuesday simply doesn’t count.

É impossível não respeitar quem consegue soletrar TERÇA-FEIRA, mesmo que não escreva direito; mas soletrar não é tudo. Há dias em que soletrar "Terça-feira" simplesmente não conta.

❑ TEXTO 3: Read this text. 

The Internet is in its early days, so its influence on English spelling has hitherto been very limited.

A Internet está em seus primórdios, então sua influência na ortografia inglesa tem sido até agora muito limitada.

Some of its services (chat, texting, Twitter, social networking) have popularised some old abbreviations (such as c for see, u for you, 2 for to) and introduced a few new ones (such as lol), but these are largely restricted to the technology context in which they arose, and are only occasionally encountered in the wider orthographic world.

Alguns de seus serviços (chat, mensagens de texto, Twitter, redes sociais) popularizaram algumas abreviações antigas (como c para ver, u para você, 2 para para) e introduziram algumas novas (como lol), mas estas são amplamente restritas ao contexto tecnológico em que surgiram e são encontradas apenas ocasionalmente no mundo ortográfico mais amplo.

Novelties, whose long-term effect on the language remains to be seen, include minimalist or zero capitalisation in messages (no sentence-initial capital, the use of i for the pronoun I), the use of repeated letters (I’m sooooooo happy), and the replacement of normal letters by other symbols, as seen in @command, Micro$oft, AO£ (‘AOL’), d00dz (‘dudes’), and c%%l (‘cool’). 

Novidades, cujo efeito a longo prazo na linguagem ainda não foi visto, incluem o uso minimalista ou zero de maiúsculas nas mensagens (sem maiúsculas no início das frases, o uso de i para o pronome I), o uso de letras repetidas (estou tãããão feliz) e a substituição de letras normais por outros símbolos, como visto em @command, Micro$oft, AO£ (‘AOL’), d00dz (‘caras’) e c%%l (‘legal’).

We are used to apostrophes in names (O’Malley) but not usually exclamation marks (Yahoo!).

Estamos acostumados com apóstrofos em nomes (O'Malley), mas normalmente não com pontos de exclamação (Yahoo!).
