Should be at least 3 for each judge (meaning 11 jurors per match). Who's to say the real fun is not going to be in the lower bracket? I can trade you my two Round of 16 matches for two of your lower bracket matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kungshamra71 892 Posted July 28, 2020 #953 Share Posted July 28, 2020 9 hours ago, Cobi said: I just checked the dictionary and apparently the word "Saudade" appeared in the 1780 edition of the Spanish dictionary, translating literally the definition from the Portuguese dictionary: "Voz portuguesa, que segun su diccionario significa finísimo sentimiento del bien ausente, con deseo de poseerlo. Han usado algunos autores castellanos de esta voz." It was eliminated in 1817 and included again in the 1992 edition as a synonym of "morriña". To be honest I had never heard or read this word before in Spanish. It's fascinating to see that Galician/Portugeuse make a distinction between "saudade" and "morriña" when both words describe so similar emotional situations. I think the main difference between the two is that morriña (which doesn't exist in portuguese) is more sad deep feeling than saudade. But given the similarities between the languages (portuguese and galician) it's no surprise there are such similar terms Cobi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,971 Posted July 28, 2020 #954 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Does “morriña” mean mourning in English? I never learned that word in Spanish. “Sport has the power to change the world.

I never learned that word in Spanish. more like a melancholic sad feeling caused by missing your place/town/land. never knew it existed also in spanish, i thought it was only a Galician word.
