5. 1. Which is the capital of Brasil?
b) Brasilia
In the 1950s plans were
considered for moving the
federal capital from the east
coast to the interior; the
interior was sparsely populated
and it was hoped that moving
the capital to the region would
help populate the area. The
new capital, Brasília, was
inaugurated as the federal
capital on 21 April 1960 after
being purpose built at great
cost of 2 trillion U.S. dollars.

b)Portugues
ePortuguese is the official language of Brazil, and is spoken by more than 99% of the
population. Minority languages include indigenous languages, and languages of more recent
European and Asian immigrants. The population speaks or signs approximately 210
languages, of which 180 are indigenous. Less than forty thousand people (about 0.02% of
total population) actually speak indigenous languages in the Brazilian territory . Language is
one of the strongest elements of Brazil's national unity. The only non-Portuguese speakers
are members of Amerindian groups, and pockets of immigrants who maintain their heritage
languages. Within Brazil, there is no major dialect variation of the Portuguese, but only
moderate regional variation in accent, vocabulary, and use of personal nouns, pronouns, and
verb conjugations. Variations are diminishing as a result of mass media, especially national
television networks that are viewed by the majority of Brazilians.
