in reply to a message by Charlesingram
My guess is that, being unfamiliar with the language, you probably misheard the first syllable of the name - it sounds like [zhé] in Brazillian Portuguese.
Another explanation is that the people you met were Spanish-speakers (immigrants? tourists?) and not actual Brazillians.
Florence Maud- Mary Valentine - Ada Imogen - Clementine Everly - Alexandra Esmée| Benedict Henry - Lucan Frederick - Augustine Wolf - Emory Patrick - John Eliot
