Brazilian Portuguese to English Translation Services

Professor Winn, your humble site author, is pleased to offer Brazilian Portuguese > English translations in the business and finance, medical, legal, technology, and international relations fields.

Brazil is the largest Portuguese-speaking country in the world (estimated population of 185 million dwarfing Portugual's 10 million) and the largest economy in South America (nearly $1.5B GDP) - a powerful combination for international commerce and English, its lingua franca.

The Portuguese language is interesting in Brazilian history. Portuguese has not always been the dominant language. When the first Portuguese colonists arrived in the country in the 16th century, Portuguese was not the dominant language. At that time a simplified version of Portuguese,Lingua Geral, was the lingua franca. It was a version easily used by the native population as it was based on local languages.

By the end of the 18th century, Portuguese gained ground helped by in no small measure by the arrival of 1.5 million Portuguese settlers in the following centuries. Of course, by this time the Portuguese language in ascendancy had borrowed heavily from the languages that it had supplanted as well as from neighboring tongues, thus forming the basis of modern Brazilian Portuguese.
