Folha (abreviação)


Explanation:
Buenas tardes, Eduardo. A mi me parece que eso es una abreviacción para folha, presumiblemente generada por sistema informático. Fíjese que, en verdad, hay una F mayúscula seguida por una L minúscula, y no una I mayúscula. Así, pienso que la frasis está incompleta, después de ou<b/>, por algún límite de caracteres en el sistema informático u algo del género.

  -> Sorry if I was not able to make myself understood correctly. I'm sure of the problem - because I work on public information systems in Brazil -, but not the solution, obviously. You said the same. By the way, it's a L. You can copy and paste to make sure.

Explanation:
This is quite possibly the start of another word that has been cut and there is no way to guess what it might mean.
It could be an abbreviation but again there is no way to know what it might be. The only thing to do is to leave a translator's note or ask the client
