skated Explicação: Michael I believe, *derrubaram* in this case is a slang meaning not to do something that you are supposed to do, or purposely evade work, in order to cause disruption or not to be caught (in this case, they were doing something wrong). From Common Terms Used in Law Enforcement skate: To evade being caught or being charged with a crime; to evade work Referência: http://www.ci.berkeley.ca.us/police/Publications/dictionary.... |
