:Why is the note about bretões/canhões duplicated? Lgrave 15:32, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The anthem words are only the first stanza and chorus of the poem. There is no explanation for that. It just is like that.  As to the duplication of words, it's a matter of poetic license. Jacobino--83.132.92.156 00:36, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

message: This page contains two contradictory dates.  I believe the correct date is 1910, but I'm not positive...
:towards the top of the page, it reads:
:*by the new Portuguese Republic in 1910 as the national anthem
:in the history section, it reads:
:*In the following year, 1911, a law proclaimed "A Portuguesa" as Portugal's national anthem

replies: text: Not so much an error but a bad choice of words. The anthem was adopted by the Republic in 1910 but only in 1911 it was officially and legally established. It's clearer now.Jacobino--83.132.92.156 00:36, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: The Portuguese word pátria is literally translated as "fatherland"; the compound word mãe-pátria is the correspondent to "motherland". Nevertheless, "motherland" is also a meaningful translation of "pátria". Parutakupiu talk || contribs 15:56, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The Ministry of Defense Midi file does not work.  When I click on it, the midi player just jumps to the end.  I hear nothing at all.  That's why I deleted it; it's a dead link. Inkan1969 21:03, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh! Ok, then. Sorry! But then... what is the point of keeping the image? The Ogre 13:34, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  That's the format I've seen used in other anthem pages, like for the Singapore National Anthem.  I just assumed that was the correct format.  Go ahead and change the image if you want. Inkan1969 02:45, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
