I am very curious about foreign people's opinions of Brazil when they really get to know the country deep inside, the diversity, the contrasts; not out of a mongrel complex, as some would brand. I wonder what people think, for example, of a buddhist temple amidst a tropical florest with Asians and non-Asians alike praying, or what would you, as an European, think of a old-fashioned kind of "portuguesized" German dialect spoken in a Germanic-styled town amid a tropical landscape, and what would foreigns thinks of the fact that this is all in the same country, a country which has the largest Japanese, Lebanese, Italian and African diasporas, etc.

I find it facilitating. And I like the instances where the cultures have been preserved though sadly this hasn’t been the case everywhere.

[@ArthurBrum2015]

@@LewisWirth If you're able, visit Espírito Santo. It seems the East Pomeranian language that went extinct in Europe is well preserved there in some six or seven municipalities (which is close to half the state) and widely spoken at streets and taught at schools. And with the language, the culture, of course.

Thanks mate

I really hate when foreign people say "I didn't expect Buddhists temple in Brazil, I didn't expect japanese houses in Brazil..." Bla, bla, bla... Man, what do you expect from a country with people from all over the world who came here to colonise? A country with so many cultures just around the next corner? Japaneses, Buddhists, Germans, whatever are very common, I don't understand your position.

[@LewisWirth]

@@viniciusg.c.lakselv1332 most western people don’t know Brazil was colonized with anything other then just slaves and Portuguese settlers. Most people don’t even know all that much about the rest of the world, period. I also feel that that with this video in particular I didn’t know what to say as much as many others. But I would say the main point for me is that there aren’t that many marks of Asian immigration around the world compared to certain other groups and there’s large interest in Asian culture, so to find out about the extensive Asian things that can be found in especially Brazil are amazing and a little surprising

Você é ateu?

[@LewisWirth]

essa é uma história muito longa no meu caso. mas posso dizer que negar a existência de um deus é uma posição que não foi provada e talvez não possa ser provada. mas não sou a favor de nenhuma das religiões abraâmicas.

[@Senhora2025]

@@LewisWirth entendi, obrigada por responder. Pensei que você fosse ateu, não sei o porquê achei isso

[@LewisWirth]

@@Senhora2025 Não, acho que sua suposição foi razoável.
Mas eu, pessoalmente, tenho pensamentos bastante complicados sobre esse tópico.
Ser ateu é negar a possibilidade de qualquer deus, o que não pode ser provado e, portanto, é tão irracional quanto acreditar irracionalmente em um deus específico sem nenhuma prova, ao mesmo tempo em que se acredita que todos os crentes em outros deuses estão errados.
Portanto, nesse sentido, sou meio agnóstico.
Mas também acredito que há valor cultural em certas religiões para certos grupos de pessoas.
Para europeus como eu, isso não é o cristianismo ou qualquer outra religião abraâmica.
Esse ponto de vista é tão sutil que, para as duas respostas mais comuns de ser ateu ou algum tipo de cristão, ateu teria sido o palpite mais próximo/mais provável

What you mean by Latin America, man? AMERICA is the official name of this entire continent since 1507, composed of 35 countries, officially discovered and named America in the South, more specifically in Brazil by the Catholics. Nobody here speaks Latin or have anything to do with the ancient Romans who never set foot in the American continent. Read some history, please. History is knowledge.

[@LewisWirth]

In Spanish and Portuguese it’s all America. In English America tends to refer first to the USA and there’s Latin America which is a cultural linguistic grouping of the counties with Latin languages in the Americas. There’s also north and South America split by Panama. But again that’s the case in English and most of the other languages in the world and since we’re speaking English it all makes sense. And again Latin refers to the Latin languages just like the group of Germanic languages. For Europe the term romantic languages is more common and for the Americans Latin. I don’t know exactly why it formed that way but that’s English for you. And I must say English quite regularly doesn’t make perfect sense

[@gabbriel66]

​@@LewisWirth You explained very well, Latin america refers to countries that have roots in Latin languages, such as in Europe: Italy, France, Romania, Spain, Andorra and Portugal. This applies to the Americas, Latin America are the countries with cultural ties to countries of Latin origin, such as predominantly Spanish and Portuguese in Brazil. Canada and the USA and some countries in Central America are considered Anglo-Saxon, since they were colonized by countries of Saxon origin, which are English, Dutch, etc. I am Brazilian and for me this is basic, I learned it easily at school, but many people here are ignorant about it.

[@LewisWirth]

@@gabbriel66 exactly though I would add Canada is more just Quebec and even that one we tend to not really count because it’s not as interconnected with the other ones but in some definitions they do include it. It’s kind of silly but that’s the most common definition I’ve come across excluding Quebec. But that’s semantics often it’s an oversimplified version because most people don’t understand the true nuance.
