Guides for research recorded in Portuguese.

Each guide answers a question that comes up between the recording and the article: which Portuguese is in the files, or what the Brazilian ethics committee will ask. Our team checks each one against its sources before it goes up, and a guide built on rules that change says when it was last read against them.

  1. Brazilian or European Portuguese? What it changes in a transcript

    How to tell which variety a recording is in, the spellings the 1990 agreement left double, words that change meaning, and forms of address.

  2. One study, two ethics reviews. How the Brazilian one works

    The review a CEP gives a study led from outside Brazil under the 2024 law: which committee, how long it takes, the consent form in Portuguese, and reimbursing participants.
