सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Brazilians are very informal. Even in business, 'Eu sou o [Nome]' is common, whereas in other cultures, the last name is preferred. In Portugal, dropping the 'Eu' is a sign of native-level fluency. Saying 'Sou de Lisboa' sounds more natural than 'Eu sou de Lisboa'. Introductions often involve family lineage. 'Eu sou filho de...' is a common way to establish identity.
