What does Punta Luna mean in Portugeuse?

Question

In Spanish, it is the name of a place in the Dominican Republic. Somebody said it means something else in Portugeuese..what is it?

Answer 1

It is definitely spanish. We don't have these words in portuguese. ...  maybe the way it pronounces it, might mean something different.... like "peruqueiro" is "hair dresser in spanish and in Porutuguese means someone or somewhere that sells wigs....

Answer 2

Punta Luna is Spanish not Portuguese.  So you can translate from Spanish to Portuguese as many did above.

Someone was probably pulling your leg because if you take away the "n" from Punta you will get a different word (in both Portuguese & Spanish)

Answer 3

It is beautiful moon or best night.

Answer 4

Punta Luna não é português e sim espanhol!!

Isso não tem no Brasil

Eu sou Brasileira e nunca ouvi falar nisso!

e muito menos tem haver com o Rio de Janeiro!!

Acho que você confundiu hahahaha!

Mas dá nada não!!!

Beeijos! ;)

Answer 5

Ponta da Lua (Portuguese) or Moon Point (english)

Answer 6

It means either Moon Point or Point Moon. Kinda hard to tell since they swich there word around. I speak portugese. =)

Answer 7

Sounds like "Moon Point" to me.  The Babel Fish translator doesn't recognize "Punta Luna" in Portuguese; it doesn't recognize either word at all.  It translates "Moon Point" into "Ponto Da Lua."  In Spanish, it would be "Punto de la Luna."  However, when spoken aloud, perhaps it sounds more like the Portuguese word for "w***e," which in Spanish translates to "p**a."

Answer 8

No, it means the same thing as in Spanish....Moon Point. And it's not Portuguese.

Someone's either pulling your leg or has some other 'vocabulary' going on...David has the right idea.

Answer 9

I don't recognize "Punta" as a Portuguese word - it is close to Ponto - meaning pip, dot, full stop, jot, matter, point, prompter, punt, speck, speckle, spot, stitch, stop, pinpoint

Also similar to Ponte - meaning causeway or bridge

The Portuguese word for 'moon' is lua.

So, I'm going to say it means nothing in Portuguese - but then it has been a while since I lived in Brazil.  Perhaps it is a slang term.  I'll stick with it being Spanish.

Answer 10

i guess you mean portuguese.i don`t speak spanish very well but i think it`s " punta de la luna",it makes more sense to me.    portuguese:ponta da lua.english:moon point .
