Specifies the aspect or perspective being considered in a discussion.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Brazilian offices, using 'em termos de' is a way to sound 'executive'. It's part of a dialect called 'Faria Limmer' (named after a financial district in São Paulo). Portuguese academics value precision. 'Em termos de' is used to strictly define the scope of a thesis or research paper. In PALOP countries, the phrase is common in news broadcasts and political speeches to discuss national development. Tech YouTubers in Brazil use this phrase constantly when comparing gadgets, making it a staple of the 'unboxing' subculture.
The 'Article' Rule
If you are talking about a general concept (Quality, Money, Time), use 'de'. If you are talking about a specific thing (The money we have, The time of the meeting), use 'do/da'.
Don't Overuse
Using this phrase in every sentence makes you sound like a corporate robot. Mix it up with 'sobre' or 'quanto a'.
