Translating your document from or into Portuguese

Not every translation from or into Portuguese has to be a sworn translation. You may want to have something translated from or into Polish for personal use. Think for example of a website, blog, brochure or even a love letter. We work exclusively with certified native Portuguese translations who are happy to help. Because we fully guarantee the quality of our translations, we also dare to attach consequences to this, should your translation into Portuguese not be correct.

The history and context of the Portuguese language

Portuguese is a language spoken by more than 250 million people. From Brazil to Mozambique and from Portugal to Macau in China. In short, it is a global language spoken on virtually every continent. Originally, of course, Portuguese comes from the country of Portugal. The fact that Portuguese began to spread throughout the world can be attributed to Portuguese explorations in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.

Because of the strong Catholic faith, many marriages were solemnised on foreign soil, causing Portuguese to spread even faster. Today Portuguese is the sixth language of the world and all countries where Portuguese is the main language are united in the Community of Portuguese-Speaking Countries. By the way, all the member countries have been a colony of Portugal, which is a direct linkt to the Portuguese explorations. Interestingly, Portuguese was spread mainly by sea.

Places like Goa in India, Macau in China and Malacca in Malaysia are strategically located areas where Portuguese still leaves its mark. This while a completely different language is spoken in the immediate area around it. Countries where Portuguese is the first language are: Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Guinea-Bissau, Sao Tome and Principe, East Timor, Cape Verde and Mozambique, all located near the sea on the routes of explorers such as Vasco da Gama, perhaps the most famous Portuguese person.
