    Can Anyone Help with a Portuguese Nursery Rhyme?

    Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

    Cyndi wrote asking about a rhyme from her grandmother…

    Lisa,

    My grandmother always said the same nursery rhyme. She has recently passed away and I would love to know what it means.

    Words (I am not sure of the spelling), this was not an English rhyme. It is believed to have been Portuguese, but I am not sure.

    Bo wo skee wat tin dot tin
    wa dot tin chew
    isk a diddly, diddly dee
    isk a diddly, diddly dee
    bo wo skee wat tin dot tin
    wa dot tin chew

    Any help you can give on this would be much appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Cyndi

    If anyone can help with the original words to the rhyme and/or an English translation, that would be great! Please let us know in the comments below.

    Thanks!

    Looking for a Portuguese Saying or Nursery Rhyme for a Baby Shower

    Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

    I received this note yesterday:

    Hi,

    I was wondering if anyone could suggest a nursery rhyme, song or quite from a classic children’s book that is in Portuguese. I am doing my sister-in-law’s baby shower invite and would love to put something like this on there, in her language.

    Thank you

    If anyone can help out, please comment below.

    Thanks!

    Lisa
