| to market, to market to buy a fat pig; home again, home again, jiggety-jig. saltitando (animadamente?) Explanation: Segundo o dicionário referenciado, jig como nome quer dizer: a. Any of various lively dances in triple time. no entanto, li a canção infantil inteira, e não me parece que o significado seja dança (mais à frente, temos "jiggety-JOG"). Como verbo, dá este significado: To move or bob up and down jerkily and rapidly. "Jiggety" quereria dizer algo como "animadamente" ou "freneticamente", e "jig" neste contexto parece-me "saltitar". Fica ao seu critério incluir o advérbio de modo Reference: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/jig Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_market,_to_market |
