HARDLY Oh, Gee! You are right. It means "tão pouco". Tks for yr warning and care.

airmailrpl May 18, 2007:
"how HARDLY, instead of HOW HARD -" "How hardly" would be incorrect in this context !! It would mean "tão pouco" - which is not what the writer meant in his sentence
Teresa Cristina Felix de Sousa (asker) May 18, 2007:
how HARDLY, instead of HOW HARD Talvez eu não tivesse entendido uma coisa tão diferente, se estivesse escrito HARDLY.
Agradeço a todos.
