What is an Error?

An error is a deviation from what is correct.

But what’s correct?

There are many types of errors.

“An error is a state or condition of being wrong in conduct or judgment.”

“the crash was caused by human error”

This phrase in Portuguese was the inspiration for this.

Petronio posts it on WhatsApp.

“Era uma vez um homem sabio que, vendo que sua esposa havia cometido um erro aproximou-se dela e disse: disse nada pois era um homem sabio.”

Once upon a time, there was a wise man who, seeing that his wife had made an error, approached her and said: (he said nothing because he was a wise man.)

Minha Resposta…

Melhor o “sabio” falar alguma coisa para não ficar com ressentimentos… ou, isso depende da coisa erro…

Mas algumas vezes quem fica mal pode ser a própria pessoa que cometeu o erro, mesmo que o “sábio” nao diga nada. Hehe

My answer…

Better the “wise man” to say something so as not to be resentful… or, it depends on the error, wrong thing…
But sometimes the person who feels bad can be the person who made the error, even if the “wise man” doesn’t say anything. Hehehe.

Talking more about the “error”.

Once upon a time, there was a wise man…

The error depends on the “meaning” you give for the specific situation.

The error can be the beginning of a great understanding between two people. I remembered the word “serendipity”.

The error may not be an error.

One sees the error as an error and the other sees the error as a non-error, that is, a hit.

The error may be intentional or not.

The error can be unknown. The error could be a discovery.

An error could result in failure or is a victory in a certain way.
