Professional and Accurate Localization Solutions
Portuguese is the 6th largest language, with an estimated 265 million native speakers found all over the world. As one of the most popular languages, Portuguese speakers are spread out globally, with large populations of native speakers found in Brazil, Portugal, Mozambique and other regions in Africa, as well as the United States. With such a diverse and widespread language, reaching patients and consumers that speak Portuguese natively requires culturally sensitive and targeted messaging.
As part of this, linguistic accuracy, in-depth cultural understanding, subject matter expertise, through localization best practices are all necessary components in ensuring success for any product or service entering the local market. Additionally, high-quality, consistent localization solutions for the Portuguese language requires advanced AI translation technology combined with native, in-country linguists for a quick turnaround time.

There are four main dialect groups of Portuguese, all mutually intelligible:
- Central (Beira)
- Southern (Estremenho; including Lisbon, Alentejo, and Algarve dialects)
