Or if that URL is too long: http://tinyurl.com/b2q9zx I'm not sure how the Portuguese newspaper word them. I know a few death words from the handwritten book of deaths (obitos) in the Azorean churches: falceu = died viuvo/viuva = widow/widower mais ou menos = more or less (after their age) (not sure I spelled all the Portuguese words right) You can gets the dates, months, years from the URL above. You'll probably recognize a name as a name. Not sure if this is what you meant by looking for phrases.
