Hi " Spacerocksinc ", Anita and List:
Nice meteorite, nice picture! However, the captation should read:
Senhor , not Senór... and Fazenda, not Hacienda.
In Brasil, they speak/write Portuguese, not Spanish.
José Campos
Portugal
Senor and Hacienda are Spanish words that have made it into the
English Language. Since the caption was written in English, I don't
see a problem with the usage, However, not too many English speakers
would know what a Fazenda is!
Of course technically speaking you are correct, and they do speak
Portuguese in Brazil, although not the same Portuguese they speak in
Portugal.
Sincerely,
Mike Fowler
Chicago
