Portuguese term

frente à reralidade que se aplicam

Portuguese to English Other Education / Pedagogy
Good afternoon everyone! I need help with the translation of the following context. I just don't understand what the person means by "frente à reralidade que se aplicam". I am pretty sure that the word "reralidade" was a typo and the person meant to say "realidade".

By the way, this is a survey about an "Editora de Livros" (Publishing company/Publisher)


"Contente com a qualidade, um pouco reflexivo a respeito dos valores dos produtos frente à reralidade que se aplicam."


Thanks!!

Hi Beta! Yeah, I agree. They just accidentally added an extra "r". Thanks Beta! :)

"reralidade" Hello dear Mary,
I'm with you. I'm pretty sure this is a typo.

in terms of the reality they face

It looks like a typo to me too.

As for the translation, it would help to know what the implied reality is - are the books deemed too expensive for the market? Does it refer to people not buying books?

If it's about the market the products are aimed at, you could say 'in terms of the target market' or if it's more general, 'in terms of the current reality/current realities'.

rather reflective of products' real values

Sounds like marketing mumbo-gumbo. I wonder if you can't just pare it down.

...in terms of current realities.

Perhaps:

´´Pleased with the quality, a little pensive with respect to the products´ values, in terms of current realities´´.

The ´current realities´ being the current economic climate.
