What are the differences between the portuguese spoken in Brazil and the one spoken in Portugal?
I imagine it must be similar to what happens with the spanish spoken in Latin America and the one spoken in Spain, but I'd like to know differences between them, with certain examples if possible, last nite I was watching a football game and after seeing a portuguese and a brazilian player talk to each other I wondered what differences would there be between their "portuguese"... thanks in advance :D* Sept 18th *
Thanks Cherry and Mister Wright for your responses, I can see there are differences... do any of you know if there's a change in the way they pronounce the same word, for instance in spanish you can tell the diference between latin american and spanish people because latin americans don't lisp.

Non Nationals or Foreigners
A brief question for english native speakers, I translated a couple of days ago a small sign with the entrance fees to a museum, there are two types of rates one for nationals and the other one (and here is where my question enters) for non nationals, i submitted it like that, but yesterday someone asked me which one was the right term, non nationals or foreigners, which one's the right one or more proper to use?it happens there too? oh well here in Guatemala, i saw it here. "foreign - nationals" I really started to wonder if writing "non nationals" might have come out all wrong, like rude you know. [to Jura, the previous additional detail was for chpr1] Latin America and third world countries have a tiny little detail... tourism represents the second biggest income for their economies, the first one is represented by the money immigrants send from the u.s and other first world countries, so given that situation tourists usually pay higher rates but not higher like "woah that's crazy expensive" but they do pay a little more and it usually benefits the community and the local people, i dunno about the rest of latin america but that's what happens here in G town.

Die Bibel... a quick question for German speakers
how would you translate this "Die Bibel/ ober bie ganze/ reilige Schrift/bes/ ulten Unv Reuen Leftaments"? i'm quite sure the person who sent it to me typed some of the words incorrectly, so any help would be highly appreciated.

Phrasal verbs... OH GOTT phrasal verbs!
I'm looking for someone to practice phrasal verbs, because so far i consider i'm quite good at speaking in english, and have a good level of fluency, the bad thing is... I COMPLETELY SUCK AT PHRASAL VERBS, maybe it's because i'm too literal and try to translate unconsciously each word, but well it's not like i don't know any phrasal verbs, i just need to find someone who can explain them to me, and practice using phrasal verbs...
