Re: Presas...
It could be, but I'm not familiar with that usage, since I didn't know of that meaning in Spanish (if there's one like that in Portuguese, then it's very obscure). There is represa (and subsequently represas), though, which means dam(s), as in some sort of man-made structure preventing the water in rivers from flowing naturally.
