    Translation help for wedding speech Dear Italki community, I am getting married to an amazing Portuguese woman in three days. I’ve learnt a bit of Portuguese over the last few months. I want to nail my speech to her family. They speak continental Portuguese. Any translation help will be appreciated. Here is what I have: My new Portuguese family: Uncles, aunts, cousins, brother and sister. Thanks for the warm welcome I’ve already experienced, from firm handshakes and hugs, to visiting Grandpa X and Grandma Y in their village Z in Portugal. I can confidently say, your kindness goes to the roots. I could not think of more welcoming and warm people. My new Mom and Dad. You have raised children that could conquer the world, but decides to serve it instead. I often feel I am not worthy of Talia’s greatness, but I am excited about spending my life attempting to be. Thank you for all you have invested.

    A diferença entre três palavras Boa noite, Desculpe minha Portuguese. Ainda iniciante. Também é muito tarde em Inglaterra. Eu preciso de ajuda: Qual é a diferença entre três palavras: assunto topico tema Talvez uma explicação rapido em inglês? Também três frases em português com cada? Muito obrigado! (My understanding/assumption is that assunto - subject, topico - topic, tema - theme. Not sure if that is right though?)

    7de laan 3 - Emily se eerste uitstappie

    Emily is 'n karakter op 7de laan. Sy is 'n baie mooi meisie maar sy is nie werklik nie! Sy is eintlik 'n seun wat in vroue se klere aantrek aan. Hoekom? Sy bestuurder is mal en maak hom dit doen. Anders, sal hy sy hy sal sy pos verloor los! (los = leave, verloor = to lose).

    Eerste, die bestuurder ('n vrou genoem Connie) wil net enigste Emily se gesig grimeer (enigste = only as in only child, net = only as in simply/limited to). Maar dis nie vir haar genoeg nie. Dan sy wil sy hom om ook vroue se klere te aantrek aan. Dan sy wil sy met Emily na die bar gaan.

    Die eerste tyd wat hulle uitgaan hulle (wat hulle = that they. To understand this distinction, it's important to remember in English you are saying "The first time they go out", but you're actually saying "The first time that they go out" and in Afrikaans you have to include the that ), 'n man genoem Willem kyk na Emily. Willem val in die liefde met haar. Hy weet nie dat daar 'n slang in die gras is nie (Afrikaans has double negation). Willem dink dat Emily 'n mooi meisie is. Emily nie praat nie, want sy dink dat haar stem te manlik is (same as that above - in English you would say "She thinks her voice is too manly", but you're actually saying "She thinks that her voice is too manly"). Willem dink Emily 'n groot baie uitdaging is. Daarna reël Connie 'n datum vir Willem en Emily. Emily is nie gelukkig nie!

    Hoe het die datum gegaan? Jy moet tot volgende keer wag...

How can I put it? That is difficult to say. Você coloca uma questão interessante. O que você acha? Hmmm. Como posso colocar isso? Isso é difícil de dizer.

Eu estudo lá. Finança. Eu gosto de viajar. Você é de Portugal, certo? Minha primeira frase em português: Minha noiva vai pagar por tudo. Eu ainda sou um iniciante, mas como se diz "trying" em português?
