Tbat said, "carrinho de feira" is a very Brazilian thing and dates back to the 50's.
Marlene Curtis Jan 26, 2009:
That is exactly what a "carrinho de feira" is, for use at street markets . They are privately owned and small (I used to have one in Rio and loved it); The supermarket ones are much, much bigger and bulkier, you wouldn't use them at street markets and I don't think you can buy them either.
Amy Duncan (X) Jan 26, 2009:
Hi Marlene, the carts in the picture are the shopping carts I've seen both at street markets and in the supermarket (brought there by individuals, not the ones owned by the supermarket).
Marlene Curtis Jan 26, 2009:
That's the meaning he is, I think, trying to convey.
Marlene Curtis Jan 26, 2009:
Hi Amy: Just look at the photos at http://www.hiperbrink.com.br/CARRINHO DE FEIRA DOBRAVEL.jpg . These compact shopping carts are used exclusively at street markets in Brazil and are very popular.
Amy Duncan (X) Jan 26, 2009:
You really need to put some context! I have never heard of a specific term in English for a cart that you use for shopping at an outdoor market. There are two kinds of shopping carts: the larger ones with four wheels that you see that supermarket, or the folding ones that people buy to take shopping anywhere. They are both called "shopping carts."

Cara, já procurei isso antes e não encontrei. Tive que usar algo como "market cart" e explicar isso entre colchetes.

Grata Maria José!
agree Donna Sandin : I think you need the element of "street market" here. Which can also be called a "farmers market"
