PT-PT and PT-BR are almost similar. If a reader from Brazil reads a message from Portugal, he will be able to understand. There's no "too much confusion in it", because in the portuguese Wikipedia we mix the variants, and there's no confusion. There's only one Wikipedia for the variants of portuguese, it's not the same as you told about "Javanese and Indonesian", because these two languages apparently can't be mixed, as I presume after seeing that they have two different Wikipedias for them. Portuguese from Portugal and Portuguese from Brazil can be mixed. Portugueses, Galician and Spanish, can't. These are similar, but different languages, not variants of the same. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
