I have been learning the portuguese from Brazil and the portuguese vocabulary in the book is different. i saw a number of words for vegetables, herbs and spices that don't match Either the Google translate for Brazilian portuguese OR for the portuguese of Portugal. so perhaps this is using an older vocabulary. also, some translations are just wrong. in the transportation section esquerda is translated to english as "right", when it means left. in the index for this volume one part has polish and english, rather than portuguese and english, at the top of the page. there is no indication that the portuguese is strictly from portugal anywhere i searched in the book. the book isn't bad, it's just not what i was expecting.
