Gordon, You need to post the record. As I said, without seeing it, it's literally "at the foot of." If you want it in context, you need to post the record. All I can assume is he was at the end of a street or the base of something. That's literal. As Gonçalo said, it can mean "near to." So it

"ao pé de" can be literally translated as "at the foot of", as Cheri explained. But "ao pé de" is a Portuguese expression that means "near to". That is a translation that is closer to its meaning. O João está ao pé da padaria. João is near the bakery. Cheers Gonçalo On Thu, 27 Sep 2018, 21:43

Gordon, I'd really need to see the whole record. Is the apostrophe after the "e" on "Pe" really an accent of "Pé?" That means foot. "Ao" means "on the" or "at the" (it's a contraction). So "at the foot of Ladeira" is how I kinda interpret that without seeing it in context. D. is Dona. It's a
