Continued thread

Cape Verde's small population considered “white” was in turn divided into Portuguese-born officials and into those born locally, who the metropolitan #Portuguese derisively referred to as brancos da terra, and degredados, soldiers and civilians exiled for criminal or political reasons. The latter categories could include those of black #African and mixed descent, since in the Lusophone world “whiteness” was determined by political and economic power and by the ability to exhibit European cultural markers. Next to these “whites” there was a group of often mixed-race pardos, both free and enslaved. The lowest category, pretos, was made up of blacks who could be enslaved or freed, converts to Christianity and born on the islands or from numerous societies in western #Africa. By the end of the 17th c. at the latest, the Cape Verde islands had developed a distinct Creole identity. (2/7)

Perhaps you are a longing for a #SilentSunday, in this case this week’s #BlackHistoryMonth #emdiplomacy take offers you a relaxing weekend read:

Today we focus on #CapeVerde which were discovered by the #Portuguese in the middle of the 15th c. In 1466 the islands received trading rights in West #Africa. Cape Verde provided a stopover on the transatlantic slave trading route. Moreover, plantations were established there. However, #earlymodern Cabo Verdean society was decidedly mixed. (1/7)

Today is International Mother Language Day (#IMLD) — a worldwide annual observance held on February 21 to promote awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity and to encourage #multilingualism.

I grew up in a monolingual #Spanish-speaking household but was exposed to #English and the #Galician variety of #Portuguese at an early age. Upon moving to Barcelona as a teenager, I adopted #Catalan.

The fact that I majored in #Translation may not come as a surprise.

How many languages do you speak?

As I near retirement my wandering eye is looking around for a place to live out the remaining days of my life. As a #procycling fan, Europe has always been on my bucket. It would seem that now is the time for me to move forward.

For a variety of reasons I am looking strongly at #Portugal as a leading contender.

If there are any expats or natives who would bit of spare time to chat with an open minded American, I would surely appreciate some advice and information.

I have started my journey by trying to learn #Portuguese , so if you are in the #LanguageLearning community and have ideas or resources for European Portuguese, I would really appreciate it. Brazil seems like a lovely place, but that is not where I want to go at the moment. 😉

If you see this and could take a moment to boost so maybe this can get a little more visibility, I sure would appreciate it!

I am currently convinced that the #Portuguese make the best desserts in the world. I will give bonus points to the French for crème brûlée (plus the Catalonians for their equivalent) and to the Italians for tiramisu. But damn, every dessert from #Portugal is great.

Doesn’t hurt to have it accompanied by amazing #Fado singing.

Hi! Renata here. I'm a Brazilian English-Portuguese (and Portuguese-English) translator based in the Greater Rio de Janeiro area. I'm autistic, and my brand new goal in life is to work with more neurodivergent business owners. I specialize in audiovisual content and health & wellness, and I've been at it since 2017. This is my account to talk biz, sometimes in all seriousness, at times not. If you're a neurodivergent entrepreneur, I'd love to connect 😍
