What makes me different from others is that I know my job and how to do it well. I use all feedback that I receive and use it to better myself. I am very confident in my job and do it to the best of my ability every time. I am also very fast-paced and I love learning new things every day for myself.

| Diremos dêstes assuntos em outros tantos paragrafos, definindo, todavia, primeiro, o que entendemos por ortografia portuguesa. | We deal with these issues in many other paragraphs, defining, however, first, what we mean by Portuguese orthography. |
| «ORTOGRAFIA PORTUGUESA» é o sistema de escrita ou grafia representante comum de todos os dialectos do português falado; a sua base é a história da linguajem portuguesa considerada como língua e como dialecto. | The "PORTUGUESE ORTOGRAPHY" is the common representative writing or spelling system of all dialects of spoken Portuguese; its basis in the history of the Portuguese language considered as a language and as a dialect. |
| Considerada como língua, estuda-se a linguajem portuguesa no ponto de vista de língua fundamental ou língua mãe, de que, por evolução própria, se teem derivado outros modos de falar no tempo e no espaço, depois de assentada a evolução glotolójica realizada em Portugal durante mais de um século já desde D. Dinis, e principalmente durante os reinados de D. Pedro I, D. Fernando I e D. João I. | Portuguese as a language is studied from the point of view of a fundamental language or mother tongue, from which, by its own evolution, other ways of speaking in time and space have derived, after having settled the glottal evolution carried out in Portugal for more than a century already since D. Dinis, and especially during the reigns of D. Pedro I, D. Fernando I and D. João I. |
| Considerada como dialecto, estuda-se a linguajem portuguesa como evolução glotolójica neo-latina ou románica. | The Portuguese language, considered as a dialect, is studied as a neo-Latin or Romance glottal evolution. |

| Die Geschichte Deutschlands beginnt nach herkömmlicher Auffassung mit der Entstehung des römisch-deutschen Königtums im 10./11. | According to the conventional view, the history of Germany begins with the emergence of Roman-German kingship in the 10th/11th century. |
| Jahrhundert, wenngleich sich damit noch lange keine „deutsche Identität“ entwickelte. | Century, although a "German identity" did not develop with it for a long time yet. |
| Die deutsche Sprache ist seit dem 8. Jahrhundert als eigenständige, in eine Vielzahl von Dialekten unterteilte und sich weiterentwickelnde Sprache fassbar. | The German language can be grasped since the 8th century as an independent language, subdivided into a multitude of dialects and evolving. |
| Die Bewohner des Reiches waren vor allem Nachfahren von Germanen und Kelten, im Westen jedoch auch von römischen Siedlern und im Osten von westslawischen Stämmen, den sogenannten Wenden oder Elbslawen. | The inhabitants of the empire were mainly descendants of Germanic tribes and Celts, but in the west also of Roman settlers and in the east of West Slavic tribes, the so-called Wends or Elbe Slavs. |
| Das römisch-deutsche Reich entwickelte sich im Frühmittelalter aus dem Ostfrankenreich, das wiederum infolge der Krise des fränkischen Reichs im 9. Jahrhundert entstanden war. | The Roman-German Empire developed in the early Middle Ages from the Eastern Frankish Empire, which in turn had arisen as a result of the crisis of the Frankish Empire in the 9th century. |
| Das Herrschergeschlecht der Ottonen konnte im 10. Jahrhundert die westliche („römische“) Kaiserwürde erlangen und legte die Grundlage für das seit dem späten 13. Jahrhundert so genannte Heilige Römische Reich. | The ruling dynasty of the Ottonians was able to attain the western ("Roman") imperial dignity in the 10th century and laid the foundation for what has been called the Holy Roman Empire since the late 13th century. |
| Ottonen sowie die nachfolgenden Salier und Staufer stützten sich in unterschiedlicher Ausprägung auf die Reichskirche. | Ottonians, as well as the subsequent Salians and Hohenstaufen, relied in varying degrees on the imperial church. |
| Die mittelalterlichen römisch-deutschen Kaiser sahen sich in der Tradition des antiken Römischen Reichs (Reichsidee), wobei es wiederholt zu Spannungen zwischen den Universalmächten Kaisertum und Papsttum kam. | The medieval Roman-German emperors saw themselves in the tradition of the ancient Roman Empire (imperial idea), although there were repeated tensions between the universal powers of the emperorship and the papacy. |
| Bereits gegen Ende der staufischen Dynastie (12./13. Jahrhundert) verlor das Königtum an Macht. | Already towards the end of the Hohenstaufen dynasty (12th/13th century), the kingship lost power. |
| Die römisch-deutschen Könige waren aber ohnehin nie absolute Herrscher, vielmehr wurde der Aspekt konsensualer Herrschaft des Königtums im Verbund mit den Großen betont. | However, the Roman-German kings were never absolute rulers anyway; rather, the aspect of the consensual rule of the kingship was emphasized in conjunction with the great powers. |
| Im Gegensatz zu den westeuropäischen Monarchien England und Frankreich, entwickelte sich im römisch-deutschen Reich nie eine zentralisierte Reichsherrschaft. | Unlike the Western European monarchies of England and France, a centralized imperial rule never developed in the Roman-German Empire. |
| Die Macht der vielen Landesherren nahm im Spätmittelalter weiter zu, die Goldene Bulle Karls IV. legte eine kurfürstliche Wahlmonarchie fest. | The power of the many sovereigns continued to increase in the late Middle Ages, and Charles IV's Golden Bull established an electoral monarchy. |
| Diese Form einer dezentralisierten Herrschaft, die durchaus auch Vorteile hatte, begründete letztlich die Tradition des deutschen Föderalismus. | This form of decentralized rule, which certainly had its advantages, ultimately established the tradition of German federalism. |
| Im Spätmittelalter kam es außerdem zum Aufstieg des Städtewesens. | The late Middle Ages also saw the rise of urbanism. |
