Brazilian Portuguese: "Por gentileza, empilhe as cadeiras ao final do dia".
If colloquial or more informal translations are desired:
- "Empilhar as cadeiras não faz cair a mão" (roughly "you won't lose your hands if you take the time to stack the chairs")
- "ô mossss, empilhascadêra fazenofavô?" (A very informal transcription from "Mineiro" (people from the state of Minas Gerais) accent for "Hey girl/boy, [can you] stack the chairs, doing [everyone] a favor [please]?"

So I went with “ô mossss, empilhascadêra fazenofavô?” and my friend told me the Brazilian students in her class “lit up!” They were so happy that they wrote a response: “Pó dexa, cumpadi” and apparently recorded a video together talking about how they came across their dialect in an English class at a little school in Australia. Thank you for making a bunch of people smile this morning!
