意思
To become or cause to be quiet.
文化背景
Brazilians are generally expressive. Asking for silence is often done with a 'shhh' sound and a hand gesture (finger to lips). In casual settings, people might say 'Fala baixo' (speak low) instead. In Portugal, 'fazer silêncio' is used strictly in formal or semi-formal settings. In schools, it is a very common command from teachers to students. Similar to other Lusophone countries, silence is requested in formal gatherings or during traditional ceremonies as a sign of respect for elders.
Politeness counts
Always add 'por favor' when using this as a command to avoid sounding bossy.
Avoid 'Ser'
Never say 'Eu sou silêncio'. It makes no sense in Portuguese.

The 'Shiu' factor
