Portuguese citations of a dois passos
- 1890, Aluísio Azevedo, O Cortiço, Rio de Janeiro: B. L. Garnier:
- Não obstante, as casinhas do cortiço, à proporção que se atamancavam, enchiam-se logo, sem mesmo dar tempo a que as tintas secassem. Havia grande avidez em alugá-las; aquele era o melhor ponto do bairro para a gente do trabalho. Os empregados da pedreira preferiam todos morar lá, porque ficavam a dois passos da obrigação.
- Nonetheless, the slum's little houses, as soon as they got finished, they rapidly got filled, leaving no time for even the paint to dry. There was some eagerness in renting them; that was the best place in the neighborhood for the workperson. All the quarrymen preferred to live there, as it was two feet away from their workplace.
