EU-PT and BR-PT Translations

As I prepare to leave the province for the city, two items have particularly caught my attention: my self-inking stamp, essential for my certified translation projects, and my electric shaver.

It's not uncommon to encounter products with information translated into various languages, including Portuguese (below).



Specifically for Portuguese translations, many the manufacturers translate the user's manual from English into Brazilian Portuguese.

Others translate it into European Portuguese (below).


But it was my first time to see a product (my shaver) whose user manual is translated into the 2 variants of Portuguese, the European standard "Portuguese | Português" and "Brazilian Portuguese | Português do Brasil" pertaining to the same product (see below).




Good job, Philips!
