Umseting - Enskt-Portugisiskt - Looks like my watch is broken,what time is it now...

Preciso de ajuda aqui... Eu não sei o significado de " roughly " em português, então não sei se está correcto... Se estiver apenas tenho a dizer que ficaria melhor:
" O meu relógio parece estar partido..."
" Não me surpreenderia...porque o tens manuseado torpemente..."
" Eu já sabia...mas esperei um pouco...Que hora é agora no teu relógio?"

" O meu relógio parece estar partido..."
" Não me surpreenderia...porque o tens manuseado bruscamente..." (roughly quer dizer "bruscamente, rudemente, toscamente)
" Eu já sabia...mas eu esperei um pouco...Que hora é agora no teu relógio?" Nesta tenho dúvidas porque "to expect" não é esperar no sentido de aguardar, mas sim de ter esperança e "esperei um pouco" fica um bocadinho ambíguo.

broken -----> quebrado, não funciona (não partidocomo se fosse em dois)

torpemente ----> bruscamente

but I expected a little -----> I supposed you'd be a little more careful

Para mim não há erro algum.

Eu acho que o Guilon tem razão.

Que achas da maneira em que está editado agora?

Please, English oracles, we need your help here,

What does this mean:

"I already knew...but i expected a little..."?

It's hard to say because we don't know what's been cut out. I would say it means that something went counter to the speaker's expectations, because it says "but".

Maybe it was something like "I already knew (the answer), but I was expecting a little (time to think about it)."

Hi all

Or "I already knew (that you would break it) but I was expecting a little (more care)...

As Kafetzou says, its too difficult to guess what was cut out.

Thank you very much, that helped more than you can think.

Sweets:

Acho que a tradução ficaria óptima com apenas uma pequena mudança:

"mas esperei um pouco..." "mas eu estava à espera de um pouco..."

K and T have the gist of it

I already knew...but i expected a little..."?
As has been said, this could be about anything, but the English is ok for most things.

I already knew ____________, but I expected a little ____________________.

Fill in the blanks guys...it doesn't require much more than that. The real question, it seems to me, is do we want to allow a fill in the blank translation?

Agora, já a posso aceitar?

Eu acho que sim

Hi, sorry to arrive so late in the game!
The Japanese says literally:

I guess it looks like my watch went and broke!
Of course, right? Because you treated it with violence!
Yeah, I know, but I went and expected (it to be a little tougher)! By your watch, what time is it?

I guess he himself translated it into English?
It's a common expression in Japanese (i.e. to leave out the "what you expected" part).

Anyway, now you know, sorry again to be so late...
