Brasil is the correct... Brazil is what Americans uses because fits better the sound of the word "Brasil". We live on Brasil... not Brazil (this word didn't exits in Portuguese). |
Brazil is the English Language form of the Portuguese language name Brasil, just like "Estados Unidos" and "França" are the Portuguese forms for the English name "United States" and French name "France". So there´s nothing wrong using "Brazil" when we´re talking in English.
