Please

But should I say And “A few Japanese live in this city” or “A few Japanese people live in this city?

Hi Fernando, I think you can say it either way. "Portuguese people" is slightly redundant, so I don't think it is necessary to use "people." As long as you use "Portuguese" as a noun, then it will refer to people of Portugal. Let me know if you have questions.

many people
