Answer 3

Hi !!!!

  My name is Vanessa and I live in a city called São Paulo, in Brasil. This city is 45 minutes from Rio de Janeiro ( by plane ).

The correct way to write  Brasil is  with " s " . And people here call themselves " brasileiro/brasileira " . And  you are right, if it is a woman, you say   " ela é brasileira "  - (she is brasilian)

and for man, you say      " ele é brasileiro "- ( he is brasilian ).

female- it ends with a

male   - it ends with o

Portuguese is a little complicated...there are many different words that you may think it writes like this way because it sounds like this, but it actually writes in a different way...

I like Portuguese very much, it is a beautiful language. It is the same spoken in Portugal, only with different accents and sometimes,different expressions .

I hope I could help you !

Have a lovely weekend !

Vanny
