Are you sure that ''PRETEND'' is the correct verb???

Isn't INTEND the correct verb for PRETENDO???

yeah. Pretend in Portuguese is "fingir".

example: Eu quero fingir ser um ator / I want to pretend be an actor.

Intend means "pretender"
Eu pretendo ser um ator - I intend to be an actor.

Gotta?

This makes no sense--unless you mean that after 2015, you will stop speaking more than twenty languages.

An ambitious goal might be "to speak twenty languages _by_ 2015", meaning "before 2015 is in the past." Can it be that this usage of "até" is special to Brazil?
