A language is a dialect with an army and navy

For example there is less difference between Serbian and Croatian (which are considered seperate languages) than between Dutch and Flemish (which is considered a dialect).

Brazilian Portugese has notable differences, more than Serbian and Croatian at least. Also a lot more than between Dutch and Flemish.

Well, is still Portuguese, no matter what. Therefore, calling it just "Brazilian" is still wrong. 


I firmly believe that getting upset over something like this is the pinnacle of human absurdity. You know what we're talking about, I know what we're talking about, everyone knows what we're talking about. There's no confusion over the language in question, and it even identifies what country the speaker hails from. But SOMEONE has to get upset over it, because "OMG, IT'S NOT MEXICAN, IT'S SPANISH".

You know what? Don't care. If you said they spoke American, I'd know what you were talking about, and the fact that you accurately corrected me shows you knew what I was talking about.

 

Political correctness is ruining this world.
