Platform and export notes
European and Brazilian Portuguese differ in more than accent
Vocabulary, pronoun placement and some spellings diverge between PT-PT and PT-BR, and the 1990 orthographic agreement is applied unevenly in practice. Pick the target variety before review rather than after.
Brazilian Portuguese dominates the content volume
Most Portuguese-language video is Brazilian, so a generic "Portuguese" setting usually serves PT-BR content. If the recording is European Portuguese, expect vowel reduction to make the audio harder to transcribe than the Brazilian equivalent.
Accented characters and encoding
Portuguese uses ã õ ç á é í ó ú â ê ô à. Export subtitles as UTF-8 so the nasal vowels and cedilla survive; a wrong-encoding export is the usual cause of broken Portuguese caption files.
