I am aware that Brazil entered the war late, but still served the Allied cause. I specially want to hear from Brazilian women, Jewish Brazilians and Brazilians indigenous Indian Ancestry or German heritage. Too often history portray Anglo whites as the only persons who contributed to WWII victory. Persons who have WWII memories to share are now society's elders. I've lived in the US for more than 32 years, but I travel often to Brazil.
People use foreign words to name their businesses and restaurants, dishes or food cards.
The magazines use foreign words or sentences. The worst part is most people don't even know how to pronounce those words correctly or they misspell them. On T-shirts especially, they are misspelled or often make no sense. In the late 60s I was reading a Brazilian magazine and came across the word alunissar . I applaud the National Movement in Defense of Portuguese Language and Mr. Aldo Rebelo for their fight.
