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).

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.
