  6. I was looking up the meaning of the #Brazilian #Portuguese idiom “mas que nada”, as heard in the #SergioMendes song

    In the song, the context is like “whatever! Get out of my way, let me pass, because the samba is animated; what I want is to dance the samba”

    I found this informative link about the song and its composer #JorgeBen. He knew a guitarist named Rosinha who said the phrase all the time, so he wrote it into the song:
    thebestofbrazil.info/specialfe

    That site makes it sound like a playfully dismissive phrase, and translates it as “Oh, come on now!”, “Get off it!” or “Puh-leeze!”

    Genius translates it as “What the hell”

    Someone on Quora said it was a way to change the subject, like “Forget about it!”

    A Quora bot called it “an emphatic interjection meaning roughly ‘no way,’ ‘come on,’ ‘don't be silly,’ or ‘not at all,’ depending on context. It often downplays or rejects what was just said, expresses surprise, or signals dismissal.”

    In Australia we might say, “Come off it!”, “Get ya hand off it!”, “Yeah RIGHT!”, “Get faaarked!” or even (my favourite) “Rack off!”

    Someone on Reddit said:

    “In the way that is written, means something like ‘just nothing’ or ‘don't mention it’ in an informal way of speaking, in a sense that someone was grateful for something and a person answered this with an informal ‘you're welcome’.”

    Which made me think… in Australia, could it also mean “no worries!”

    But I don’t think that’s the context in this song

  21. I was high, looking for some trippy astronomy videos and I stumbled on this group. Incredible mix of traditional music and hip hop. Love those reed flutes. Looks like a hell of a party! It's a Spanish version of Rod Stewart's "Do you think I'm Sexy" (actually Jorge Ben's "Taj Mahal" which Stewart admits he "nicked")
