mazines don't have middle pages, they have middle-fold pages, but in Portugal this is just center fold pages. A printer's term.

That's true. All her questions are Portuguese from Portugal, and paginas central are not main pages, if you have a 24 pager, they are the middle pages, aka centerfold.

centerfold

My comment:

But of course that might be literal and unliterary. I wonder how one refers to the middle of the magazine in a literary way?
I wonder if this phrase is even literary on its face.
Hmmm.

Looks like BASIC Portuguese to me.

Ha, ha! Very funny! A literary journal isn't exactly Playboy or Playgirl magazine! This is the most hilarious thing I've read or heard all day!

No, what's funny is that you think a REVISTA is a literary journal without much more context. That is what is really funny. centerfold is a technical term. Ask any printer or layout person.
