even in language sites, many menus say "Latvian/Lettish", but for some strange reason none says "French/Französisch", "English/Englische" or "Polish/Polnische", which would be the same thing

Sounds like a cuss word. Spanuguese sounds nicer.
Portuñol is actually the term used in Brazil when we spot someone that obviously does not speak Spanish... Then words like "pierto" come along as a freaky alternative for "cerca", due to the fact that it means "perto" in Portuguese...
As far as I know, if someone speaks clear and regular informal Spanish without throwing many slangs, Brazilians can understand it well.

You are absolutely right about ducks and geese, Edward, but wrong about my whereabouts. After just five months in Sao Paulo we had to return to the US (my husband is switching from one government agency to another), but we will soon be posted abroad again... we are keeping our fingers crossed so that it can be Sao Paulo (or other city in Brazil) again, but we will not know until June 7. I will let you know... | | | Vom Thema belegte Seiten: < [1 2] | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Brazilian Spanish Trados Studio 2022 Freelance |
