Shadows in the East/ discussion

[Elvellon]

Close enough, I understand you perfectly. Standard Portuguese is less musical than Brazilian Portuguese and more formal but, despite the differences, we can understand each other quite well. (Think of the “potato” and “potáto” diference in english)

In Portugal we say “não há problema [nenhum]” (there is no problem [at all]) or “isso não é [um] problema” (that is not a problem). The Brazilians use the “não tem problema” to say the same thing, despite the fact that a literal translation would be ([he/she/it] haven’t any problem). Anyway, we are quite familiar with Brazilian Portuguese around here.
