I'm talking about the European Portuguese version.

I didn't know your language. But yes, it's been a while since I watched the movie, and I've just watched that scene, and yeah those dialogs are slightly different. I don't remember the movie line by line so I had no idea it was different. I thought the wording of the first post was kinda weird "I watched the movie in my language, and here's the scene in English" so I was like, what? But turned out you're posting the dialog from your language translated to English, and not the dialog of the English movie. My bad.

[simba86]

yes do tell what language you are talking about!

[iluvnala]

thats not how the seen goes?

To call it flirting is really distorting the storyline.

It seems that some people's observation skills aren't perfect

Interesting translation anyhow. So flirting with someone means that you have to marry them then? The reason why they have to get married isn't really made clear here. It's fun to see how the dubs differ :3

Lol. That translation makes it sound like they have to get married just because Zazu says so after he thinks they're falling in love. =D The word betrothed is kinda crucial to making clear that it isn't just about Zazu's ideas. But I think the translation doesn't really do any harm to the storyline as the arranged marriage doesn't exactly come up in any other scene or way anyway.

This dub is famous for changing random things.

My personal favorite:

Original:
Scar - Mufasa! No! You're dead!

European Portuguese:
Sarabi - Mufasa! You're dead!

^^ And we see Scar's mouth moving...

OMG. That's.....quite fascinating
