Portuguese term or phrase: filezinho
Can anyone help me with the slang meaning of this word?

From a song by Aline Muniz (Da Pá Virada)

Sou filezinho, fui criada por artista
Simpatizante da vida naturalista
Eu sou a nora que a minha sogra quer
E passo o fim de ano olhando a maré do meu apartamento que é duplex, cobertura lá na zona sul

That's interesting, Kevin! Is there anything to do with Discourse Analysis?
Thanks for sharing!

cutie


Explanation:
Talvez com menor conotação sexual. Penso que uma sogra gostará de ter uma nora bonitinha, mas não uma nora espampanante que outros homens cobicem... ;)

Notes to answerer
Asker: I also came across that website but wasn't sure if it was reliable! Good to get confirmation from a native, thanks.

Asker: PS. I am translating an article that refers to the words of this song, so it is for work!

agree  Mario Freitas: Agora, traduzir a letra de uma música assim é dose para leão. Qual seria a finalidade? Acho que a pergunta tem como base uma mera curiosidade.

  -> Grato, Mario! O Kevin já matou nossa "curiosidade" - é para trabalho sim. Aliás, depois da nota que ele deixou, lembrei-me que na área de Humanas é relativamente comum analisar letras de músicas populares (em análise do discurso, p. ex.). É interessante!
