Talk:água mole em pedra dura tanto bate até que fura

This is amusingly ambiguous: is "bored" the adjective "uninterested", or the past tense of "bore (a hole into)"? - -sche (discuss) 01:33, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Hm, I do think it would be clearer, though. (Compare, hehe.) Or would it be appropriate to rephrase the literal translation to "until it has bored (through it)"? Also, what is meant by the first part, "in hard rock"? Makes me think of a geode. :b Is it perhaps on hard rock (like a drip) or over hard rock (like a river)? - -sche (discuss) 02:09, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Damn! I never know when to use on and when to use in. Not the first time I committed this mistake. — Ungoliant (Falai) 02:27, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
