Translate English to Brazilian Portuguese
Send source_lang EN and target_lang PT-BR and the API returns Brazilian Portuguese text. Here is what makes this pair different from the others.
English
A translation should read as if a person wrote it.
Brazilian Portuguese
Uma tradução deve ser lida como se uma pessoa a tivesse escrito.
Example output produced by the vizvuz Engine and cached — not a hand-written translation.
English
English is the shortest of the supported languages in almost every measurement, which is why interfaces designed in English tend to break when translated into anything else.
Script: Latin · Family: West Germanic
British and American spelling, date order and vocabulary differ enough to matter; choose EN-GB or EN-US explicitly instead of bare EN.
Brazilian Portuguese
Portuguese differs enough between Portugal and Brazil in vocabulary, verb usage and pronoun placement that translating for one audience and shipping to the other is noticeable immediately.
Script: Latin · Family: Romance
Choose PT-PT or PT-BR explicitly; bare PT resolves to PT-PT and will read as foreign to a Brazilian audience.
Formality in this pair
Você, o senhor and a senhora carry different weight in Brazil and Portugal; formality: more chooses the polite form for the selected variant.
