@croissant-au-chocolat meu professor me falou que tipo... Cuba e Portugal não tomam gênero. Assim, "moro em Portugal" vs "moro no México"... É verdade? ����

@languageek ahaha é sim! and don’t ask me the logic of that one XD

there are others though! I just checked and saw this list: ‘ Portugal, Angola, Moçambique, Cabo Verde, São Tomé e Príncipe, Macau, Timor, Andorra, Israel, São Salvador, Aragão, Castela, Leão ‘, and a few others can you say say both ways. (here if you want to check it! it’s in pt-pt, but it’s a pretty good place to check stuff about the portuguese language!)

Have you guys ever been to Ostrava? :) because I'm going to live there for a year as a volunteer from Germany! Do you have any recommendations regarding how to learn Czech?

Hi! We haven´t unfortunatelly (even though I really want to go), but our lovely friend insomniatum has spent some time in Ostrava and as far as I know she loved it there :) Sounds like a great experience! A volunteer for what? As for learning Czech - there is this great post by languageek with various useful links that could help you learn Czech. My personal advice though - it´s complicated so be patient :D Good luck with everything!!

Edit: And I also wanted to mention prvni-slova which is very useful as well :)

I was on a triple date with a bunch of Brazilians, and they were saying how Portuguese from Portugal is so chic, and how Brazilians speak Portuguese incorrectly. I was thinking about the "incorrect" and "correctness" of a language, and if everyone speaks a certain way, even if it's "incorrect" from the standard, wouldn't become correct? I mean, it's part of the identity of the language; for example, if they say "tu quer comer alguma coisa" versus "você quer comer alguma coisa" or "tu queres comer alguma coisa." Being incorrect in terms of a population of people speaking a language is relative, isn't it? It appears that way to me anyways...
