It is portuguese, written by a six year old girl. I think what she wanted to say was, I am going to have a circus with just snakes -which is strange and funny statement by itself. What she wrote is- I am making/doing circus with snakes.
Sorry I didn’t see that there are two comments that pretty much translated it already.
Carlos – living somewhere else you mean the you are living in the traitors country >Spain. Just kidding my wife is from Spain.
Technically I’m American, both of my parents are from Viseu, Portugal. I love Portugal I used to go there for 3 months every summer vacation til I was 18 years old. I went a couple of times after that but I haven’t been there for 5 years now.
Fernando,last time I was in Brazil I was 15 years old in São Paulo/Rio de Janeiro, for Carnival. I have to go back there to I made alot of friends from Brazil over the years.
Hi Tina,
I´m from Recife, Brazil. And I think what the portuguese little girl wanted to say was that snakes also can play on Circus. And the photo shows that a child´s imagination and creativity walk side by side.
I love swissmiss.typepad.com!
When my middle boy had just started making attempts at writing I found a note from him on the kitchen table telling me he had gone to YSBRS house. It took me a while to realise he had gone to Jesper’s.
I’m portuguese too and an old reader of your blog.
The one thing no one said is that the blog from where you took that image belongs to Rosa Pomar that makes the most wonderful dolls. Just check them out, you’ll love them.
And thus… Swissmiss becomes a meeting point for Portuguese and portuguese speaking readers.
Thats the internet for you :D
Yaeh.. I’m in Portugal too. Lisbon (guilty)
Joining the choo choo, albeit a little late, so as to raise my hand and be counted as yet another Portuguese (although born and bred in the UK) who also enjoys your blog!
Swissmiss is an online garden Tina Roth Eisenberg started in 2005 and has lovingly tended to ever since.

It says, with its share of cute spelling mistakes: “I am making circus with he snakes”

that’s portuguese and what the young author intended to say was:
“I’M DOING CIRCUS WITH THE SNAKES”
what he has actually written was:
“I AM DUING CIRE CUS WITHE SE NAKES”
precious.

Cool to “know” other portuguese readers! :)
Jan 26th, 2009 / 12:09 pm
Cool!
And if I could especulate about the child, I would say its from Portugal or any other portuguese speaker country but Brazil…
The correct sentence in Portuguese:
“ESTOU A FAZER CIRCO COM AS COBRAS”
Also correct, but in Brazil:
“ESTOU FAZENDO CIRCO COM AS COBRAS”
