Is there a universal Portuguese?
|
Portuguese is the language of almost 200 million people in Brazil.
It is also the official language in some countries in Africa (Angola, Mozambique, Guinea
Bissau, Cape Verde, Sao Tome and Principe), Asia (East Timor), and in Portugal.
Although the language as spoken in
Portugal is the rule in most former colonies, Brazilian
Portuguese is different. |
Unlike the other former Portuguese colonies, Brazil
obtained its independence rather early, in 1822, and gradually lost
touch with Portugal. Nowadays, the languages spoken in Portugal and in Brazil
have become so different that their inhabitants may have a hard time
understanding each other.

Brazilian is my business
|
Since the differences between Brazilian and European Portuguese
are even greater in technical texts, I will only translate into
Brazilian Portuguese. Translators should only translate
into their native languages. To find an European Portuguese
translator, e-mail me. |
