Portugal Portuguese vs. Brazilian Portuguese? |
Travel Info i know their similar but what makes the two different? Travel Tips The accent is a very important difference and there are some small grammatical differences, as it was answered already correctly by some users. But some Brazilians here seem to forget that their Portuguese has a lot of influence of the Aborigine's language, the Tupi-Guarani. Here just 2 examples: "Mandioca" (pt, the cassava root) = "Macaxeira" (br) or "Aip铆m" (br) The Portuguese call the Pineapple "anan谩s" and the Brasilian "Abacaxi" These words really do not look the same, and I could find many more of these examples.. ;) |
