Remarks

  1. Note on spelling : Portugal and Brazil carried out spelling reforms for several decades (cf. Maurício Silva: Reforma Ortográfica e Nacionalismo Lingüístico no Brasil. Revista Philologus , Volume 5, Issue 15, pp. 58-67, 1999, archived from the original ; accessed on April 18, 2018 (Portuguese). ) With the aim of a globally uniform orthography . 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 . However, the rule is widely ignored in Brazil.
