According to the convention, i guess that would be
debian-amd64-portuguese. The glitch is: there's no
debian-user-english, for instance.

I speak portuñol if that counts as anything :) i can understand most
spanish. I speak portuguese from Portugal natively and i also speak
esperanto fluently.

I was under the impression mandarin uses one symbol per idea, whereas
"japanese" uses phonetics, but i've never studied either (maybe
japanese, some day, after russian).

Grow a thicker skin. I don't like it when i see commercials with a
bunch of foreign (i.e. english) words when they could use plain,
simple portuguese but "english sounds cool". It's our fault really,
not the anglosaxons'. I don't need to say briefing when i can say
"reunião" or "sessão de esclarecimento". It's longer? Gee, what's the
rush?
I prefer movies with subtitles.

I agree when you say the "computer folk language" is english, it is so
for me as well. I do find it ridiculous to use something like:
escrever("Olá mundo!") - at least the 'escrever' part, unless this is
pseudo-code, in which case i don't see any harm in it. I don't think i
could easily use a programming language with reserved words in
portuguese, i'm too used to english as my computer language.

Yup. Still, one of my pet hates is still the fact Unicode is not
widely adopted and i get ISOs and ASCIIs more than i'd like.
