"Do you know the way?"

Translation: Você sabe o caminho?

[msbraz]

Shouldn't 'Você sabe o rumo?' also be correct?

[Paulenrique]

Yup. Thats also correct. rumo is a more restrict word, i mean, it doesnt sound good in every context. Caminho is way, like a path, or with a symbolic connotation. Rumo is not used that much and most of time it takes the meaning of "inner way", "decisions we need to make",... those things...

[cazort]

So could the translation "Tu sabes o rumo?" be valid (it was marked wrong here in the multiple choice) in a situation where you were asking someone for some sort of spiritual guidance or something similar?

[Paulenrique]

Yes, it is also applicable this way.

[msbraz]

Cool, thanks.
I'm guessing you meant connotation ;) (symbolic conotion)

[Paulenrique]

Thx :) typing on my tablet is always hard!! :)

Você sabe o caminho?

Is Você sabe o jeito? wrong?

[Paulenrique]

Yes. Caminho is literal, path. Jeito, forma, maneira means "the way to make sth work".

Obrigado!

"Rota" should also be accepted

Why is direccao wrong when it is given as one of the translations?
