As I think about it now, I must do a slight retraction.
My reply to ?uest's post was intended to be neither sarcastic nor patronizing. He asked a legitimate question, but one I felt I had already answered. So I wanted to know if he was responding to my original post, or if he had read my answer to Spirit's question and wanted further clarification.
The implication in my post was that I felt it highly likely that he wouldn't like the answers I gave previously. But I wanted to know if he read it, or if I was starting from scratch.
E eu pensei que o Portugues era engraçado. Obrigado.
