Bulls don't pull carts. Oxen ( former bulls ;-) do.

I speak Portuguese. I think you'll be happy to hear that the expression "Não coloque a carroça à frente dos bois" does literally mean "Don't place the wagon before the oxen". The portuguese word for "bull" is "touro", not "boi", like the original poster suggested.

This thread makes me smile with all the languages being tossed around. Shows how diverse we as a community are. Even if we do use English as the common tongue, we're here representing many more backgrounds.
