Cada macaco no seu galho...


You shouldn’t always take the words in Portuguese ‘ao pé da letra’ – which means ‘literally, by the book’.


The expression " cada macaco no seu galho" means that everyone should care for their own job.


If you translate by book, you can read something like " each monkey in your branch" which it was a BIG mistake, a meaningless expression in english.
