One rule states that toponyms and all words with an indigenous origin, i.e. those from the Tupí-Guaraní languages , should be written with a cedilla (ç) instead of a double s . Juçara in Tupi-Guarani means "tree trunk". Palmeira juçara (port. WP), a palm plant ( Euterpe edulis ), whose spelling evolved over the years changed from yeï'sara over Jícara, jussara and finally juçara. However, the rule is widely ignored in Brazil. @1@ 2
