    From his name I assume he is brazillian and he is the portuguese language community manager. Yes there is a beef between PT-PT and PT-BR for this specific reason. Since there are a lot more brazilians than any other portuguese speakers pretty much every portuguese localisation is in PT-BR, which one might argue is INCORRECT portuguese (#notbiased). It's a bit like the english and "american" except the portuguese have barely any international representation so most companies don't bother to make us happy. 😢

    9:31 to answer your question Levy yeah there is kind of a beef, mainly because even tho we brazilians didnt "create" the portuguese language, we are much greater in number than the people from portugal, so we sorta became the main portuguese speaking country, and they usually dont like that lol

      Yeah, it's frustrating for me as a Canadian with a European Portuguese background to not have access to apps like duolongo or babbel to try and learn my language because they dont teach it. They only teach Brazilian Portuguese

      @@Lere it does sound unfortunate in this case, but Im sure itd still help learning the language either way, and then you could consume portuguese content to be able to differentiate

      @@Lere Yeah, looking at that point of view, it probably sucks. PT-PT and PT-BR are different enough that at least those big apps should absolutely have both even if I understand smaller media only having one as it's still intelligible

    9:20 yes there is beef between Pt Br and Pt Pt, its actually two different languages. I (brazilian) understand more spanish than pt pt because the guys stole our gold and are mad we want it back

    There’s a “fake beef” between European and Brazilian Portuguese. It’s just good fun.
