Olá a todos,
Ajudem-me a traduzir expressão. Trata-se de uma avalição grafológica. Eu cheguei a pensar em “as to, regarding, as regards to”. Mas não estou seguro.

CONTEXTO:

Sob o plano de aptidão e intelectual tem cuidado com as formas; mas sem afetação. Baseia-se na lógica para fortalecer suas ideias, propósitos e decisões (não toma decisões impensadas ou impulsivas).

IMO The real problem is the conjoining of a noun and an adjective, in "aptidão e intelectual" - that's what makes the text unintelligible.
Douglas Bissell Oct 19, 2011:
"Sob o plano de aptidão e intelectual tem cuidado " is horrible Portuguese. Actually it would be equally illiterate in any language.

Therefore, having concluded that the writer is illiterate, we should have an obligation to make the text "readable".
Unfortunately, we are translators, not magicians so you may as well invent any psycho-babble that sounds good as the "pseudo-portuguese" doesn't mean a thing!!
There is no grammatical "nexo" or even any logical connection.
Basically this will have to be translated RIRO (Rubbish in - rubbish out.

Pity we can't help the client. but theyb really should have looked at their original crap before sending it for translation.
