Crioulo no Brasil??
edit
Queria conhecer a fonte da "informação" de que há um crioulo na área de Vitória, ainda mais que se trata de uma cidade no litoral... 187.59.120.11 12:08, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
- It is about a creole spoke by Amerindians in Southern Bahia... Furthermore, in the next change of the image, please add a creole for extreme northwestern Amazonia: Nheengatu is also a Portuguese creole. Lguipontes (talk) 21:45, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
Optimistic map
edit
This map seems to me way too vast. It suggests I can speak Portuguese to people in Sydney or Los Angeles, whereas I dare to bet 99% of the people in those places does not speak one word of Portuguese; and the large Portuguese immigrant community in France seems to be concentrated in Clermont-Ferrand, which is off course utter nonsense. Could anyone remodel this map to reality? (Accurate exemple:
Namibia & South Africa
edit
Why is there no discussion before deleting such rather big parts entirely from the map? Everyone knows the fact that in both countries there are significant Portuguese-speaking groups: For instance, in Namibia in 2011 they were estimated to be 100,000, or 4–5% of the total population and an obligatory foreign language: http://www.namibian.com.na/index.php?id=28&tx_ttnews[tt_news]=85817&no_cache=1 (insert full link!). Admittedly, rather not on a nation-wide level thus not making that language a means of communicatin for all citizens, but still you must put a green square on these two (-> why not "transfer" the two silly ones on Hawaii and somewhere in the North Atlantic on a level with Washington DC?). 217.81.149.147 10:27, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
