What is 'river cobbler' when translated from English to Portuguese?

∙ 14y ago
Comedor de fundo do rio, peixe-pangá and sapateiro ribeirinho are Portuguese equivalents of the English phrase "bottom feeder." Context makes clear whether the explanation as "feeder of the river bottom" (case 1), the Portuguese equivalent as "fish (in the genus Pangasius)" (example 2) or the literal but unused translation as "riverine cobbler" (instance 3) suits. The respective pronunciations will be "KO-mee-dor djee FOON-doo doo REE-oo," "PEH-shee-pun-GA" and "SA-puh-TEH-roo REE-beh-REE-nyoo" in Cariocan Brazilian and in continental Portuguese.
