New Brazillian's Team on the Game !

Actually we don't. However, I guess the problem caused by it is not that serious due to the similarity of these languages.

Although there are much more people who speak english than people who speak spanish in Brazil, I guess that a mix of these languagues can be done in order to express something with at least a little of meaning. In other words, I guess we can comprehend each other even this way, speaking different languages. It just depends on the people you are aimming, they should have learned either english or a bit of spanish.

Welcome to the FIRST community!!

It is wonderful to see more international students. The more students and mentors that join FIRST, we learn more about our world and how wonderful it really is.

I wish your team and all teams good luck this coming season!!

on a side note...
My friend though who has gone to school in Brazil said that many know English, Spanish and Portuguese and learn even another language. it is simply amazing especially since most American students only know one language entering high school unlike the rest of the world.

To true.

If you speak three languages, you're trilingual.
If you speak two languages, you're bilingual.
And if you speak one language, you're American.

I wish you the best of luck in competition and just want to know.... HOW did you get all the money to come here??!! Hee hee, we're having trouble getting enough just to travel the state! Anyway, I'm Devon from team 1412. Pleased to meet you, and again, the best of luck.

hah... I actually can speak Spanish, but I´m going to Spain in January... missing the FIRST season too! But, starting at the beginning of April I´ll be able to help... if that helps at all
