Experienced Portuguese linguists for your event
Planning an event in Leicestershire or elsewhere? You have come to the right place.
Creating, producing and running events is not for the faint-hearted and you will need a steadfast and experienced partner by your side.
We have learnt over the years that there can be so many facets to organising a successful event, and that for any event to be successful, you need all the elements to be truly accessible. This might mean ensuring your event is accessible to the Deaf, hard of hearing, blind and partially sighted, but if you are planning an event for a global organisation, then your content will need to be available in the relevant languages. We cover a large range of languages including Portuguese so just let us know how we can help.

While you’re here… some quite interesting facts about the Portuguese language.
Portuguese is a Romance language spoken by about 220 million people mainly in Portugal and Brazil (Brasil), and also in Angola, Mozambique (Moçambique), Cape Verde (Cabo Verde), Guinea-Bissau (Guiné-Bissau), São Tomé e Principe, East Timor (Timor-Leste), Equatorial Guinea and Macau. There are also communities of Portuguese speakers in Goa, Daman and Diu in India, and in Malacca in Malaysia. Portuguese is a descendent of Latin, which was brought to the Iberian Peninsula by Roman soldiers, settlers and merchants from 218 BC. The earliest records of a distinctly Portuguese language appear in administrative documents dating from the 9th century AD. In 1290 King Denis decreed that Portuguese, then simply called the “Vulgar language” should be known as the Portuguese language and should be officially used. A reformed Portuguese orthography (nova ortografia), in which words were spelled more in accordance with their pronunciation, was adopted is Portugal in 1916. A slightly modified form was adopted in Brazil in 1943 and revised in 1970. A new orthography which aims to unify the written Portuguese of all the lusophone countries was adopted in Brazil in 2009. Dates have yet to be set for its adoption in the other Portuguese-speaking countries.
Where is Portuguese most widely spoken?
