How would you translate this into (Brazillian) Portugeuse?

How would you translate this into (Brazillian) Portugeuse?
What to expect in Brazil? I just found out that I have been accepted for a scholarship and will be an exchange student in Florianopolis, Brazil for 6 months. Can someone tell me, or give me an idea of what to expect? :P What is considered impolite, what are the people like, etc... and what is the school system like? Is it comparable to Canada, at all? I am very confused.

Ask ten people and you will get 10 different countries...... Do the research yourself and choose one or two that are close.... If you are a college student that shouldn't be too hard. Cheap is relative...it's how much you want to do and spend.
2 :
add to those countries you chose ,Egypt, Saudi, Dubi , Turkey, China it is really good thing to visit other countries and see the differences between you and others good luck in your travels ...
3 :
i highly recommend traveling to europe, even though south america is definitely cheaper. it's an easier cultural adjustment and virtually everyone speaks english. i loved germany, munich is one of my favorite cities. you should check out efcollegebreak.com they have ridiculously cheap summer tours for college students--and they travel basically all around the world. the tours are also great because it's so many destinations on one tour so you don't necessarily have to pick just one country. you can also use my EF College Break Campus Manager Code, TRILI9452 and get an extra $50 off any trip...it's pretty sweet.

Do you think a geography teacher should teach geography if she spells "Hungary" wrong?

Do you think a geography teacher should teach geography if she spells "Hungary" wrong?
There was a question on the board involving "Hungary", or according to her, "Hungry". Also, one day on the board there was a question about Brazil. However, a Brazilian student corrected her and said it is annoying when people spell it with a "z" and not as "Brasil" Who is correct?

Brasil is how people who live in Brazil spell their country. People in Spain spell their country España. What is correct is depends on the language you are speaking. Spelling is an important part of Geography, but it really isn't the most important part.
2 :
If you're in an English speaking country Brazil does have a z. In Portuguese and Spanish, it's Brasil. Hungary (the country) is the correct spelling not hungry (need for food).
3 :
I'm hoping that the geography teacher was just being careless when she spelled Hungary. If not, she may not be the best person to teach it, which actually happens more often than you think. I'm an education major and while I am no genius, I do believe you should prepare before you teach in order to avoid mistakes. As for Brazil/Brasil, I don't know. I always thought it was correct to spell it with a "z", but maybe that's how Americans spell it, while the people who are native to the country spell it another way.

its hungary wow what college did dat bitch graduate from? and in brazil they spell it brasil and in U.S. be spell it brazil. but if you ever go to brazil spell it brasil there and dont disrespect there country or theyll jump you
5 :
Everybody makes mistake not a big deal.The best thing you can do is to correct them Brazil is correct.

Suck it. Bitch

Are there any universities in Brazil located around or even inside of Rio de Janeiro that is English spoken??


Are there any universities in Brazil located around or even inside of Rio de Janeiro that is English spoken??
Although the country consists of Brazilian Portuguese, I was just curious as to see if there were any schools there that taught students curriculum's in English rather than Portuguese. Possibly U.S.A schools that also had schools here or something of that nature. A family member would like to go there for college, and was just wondering if they had any schools like this. Thanks, -Jason
