DBpedia lookup takes as input an entity name and returns a set of candidate
entity URIs for that name. This can be accomplished via the /candidates
interface of DBpedia Spotlight.
See:
http://spotlight.dbpedia.org/rest/candidates/?text=Berlin
It does not return all of the fields (e.g. categories) and the XML format
is different. But it basically does the job.
Answering your question, as far as I know there is no deployed lookup for
Portuguese. But you can download the source could and build it yourself in
your own machine. Or you can try to convince someone from
dbpedia-portugu...@lists.sourceforge.net to deploy it under pt.dbpedia.org
Cheers,
Pablo
