we suffer, but we enjoy life Explanation: that's the first thing that came to my head, before even seeing Antonio's response; which after reading, makes sound as if they enjoy suffering, which I believe is not the case ...or: we suffer, but we live well we suffer, but we live life! we suffer, but we live a good life we suffer, but we enjoy ourselves we suffer, but we take/have great leisure we suffer, but we really recreate = intransitive verb: to take recreation |

we suffers, but we is happy Explanation: There are intended grammar mistakes in the original which must be captured. The phrase is famous as someone posted in the discussion box, and the idea behind it is that this is a sentiment expresed by simple/uneducated folk. |
