معنی
Before a deadline or at an appropriate moment.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Portugal, 'em tempo útil' is often linked to the 'Diário da República', where all laws are published. If a citizen doesn't act 'em tempo útil' after a law is published, they lose their rights. Brazilians often use 'em tempo hábil' as a synonym. It is very common in the 'Direito do Consumidor' (Consumer Law) when discussing returns or complaints. In Angolan administrative language, this phrase is used to maintain a formal link to the legal structures inherited from the colonial period, emphasizing state authority. Common in Mozambican news (like 'Jornal Notícias') to describe government actions or international aid arriving during crises.
