What Does This Mean?
Brazilian Portuguese gaming sense of the verb "carregar", used mostly as "carregar o time": to play far better than the teammates and so win the match largely through one's own performance. The ordinary dictionary meaning is to load or carry something; the gaming sense follows the English verb "carry".
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
""Eu carreguei o time inteiro nessa partida", escreveu o jogador no chat."
LORE & ORIGIN
In everyday Portuguese "carregar" means to carry or to load. The gaming sense matches the English verb and noun "carry": English Wiktionary defines the verb as contributing far more than teammates to a team's success or making up for their weak play, and the noun as a player seen as largely responsible for winning. No Portuguese glossary opened for this entry defines "carregar" in this sense, and no dated first use is documented, so the Portuguese sense rests on the English entry and on observed use. This entry covers the verb; the English noun is a separate entry.
