Brazzil

The word "forró" was actually shortened from "forrobodó" which came from the English "for everybody". This orginated and was incorporated into Brazilian Portuguese during Operation Rainbow when American soldiers during World War II were stationed at an air base in Parnamirim-RN (near Natal). The airmen would regularly throw dance parties and invite the locals, especially young women. A Brazilian movie on the subject was made in the 1990s. Some American culture invariably rubbed off in the northeat as well. In fact, it has been alleged that the Brazilians started decorating and displaying Christmas trees after observing this being done by the American airmen.

Oh yes, John Person city has remained quite peaceful all over these years. Much more so than neighboring, crime-riddled Recife where you'd risk your life if you went out for a little swim. Sharks dão cada mordida da porra nos banhistas.Eu quero que macacos (ou tubarões) me mordam se eu entrar n'água. De anágua.

Isso dito, dito isso.
