Portuguese is the seventh most spoken language in the world, for me as a postgraduate student it has been very interesting research on this wonderful language because I realized that just like English, Portuguese is crucial to access information in many of the specialized sectors that are particularly significant. in Brazil, such as finance, oil and gas, mining and information technology.
