"Você tem tirado dinheiro da caixa?"

Translation: Have you been taking money out of the box?

[Ross2121]

I wrote cashier and was wrong. I am the English speaking native here. This sucks

[vam1980]

'the cashier ' = o caixa, 'the box' = a caixa... (I saw 'dinheiro' and instantly made the same mistake...)

[rmacheshire]

My translation "Did you take money from the box?" was rejected.
Duolingo´s translation is "have you been taking money out of the box?" Duolingo´s version suggests that money was taken several times, and I am not sure that the Portuguese present perfect tense has this implication.
If it does not, my translation would be better than duolingo´s. Any comments from native speakers?

[Danmoller]

Portuguese carries the "more than once" meaning with this tense.

[jackson.graves]

In this context, "caixa" is more likely to mean "cash register" than "box."

[izobelbaker]

Jackson,
da caixa (from de box).
Do caixa = from de the cash register

[lesliewilman]

A shop cashier has a "till" not a box. "He got his fingers caught in the till." = "He was detected taking money from his employers." (UK version of Eng.)

[izobot]

'have you taken money out of the till' should be accepted

[deactivated user]

It would have to be "Have you been taking..."

Present perfect with an active verb lacks the requires repetition needed here.

Can caixa mean ATM?

[standelf]

Yes, but it is masculine: o caixa eletrônico.
Você tem tirado dinheiro do caixa eletrônico?
