Talk:Cape Verdean Portuguese

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wow, there's a good article here on the version of Portuguese spoken in Cape Verde! It needs some expanding, though, but good work so far. To the user Ten Islands, it's amazing that you know Portuguese and English. To contribute to Wikipedia in two languages is something that should be applauded. Kudos to you!

[edit] Sources

As a native speaker, I can say that most of what’s here is true. But I’d like someone (especially the author of the Portuguese version) to help me with some sources. Ten Islands 05:33, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] question

Is there perhaps a split in the Cape Verdean Portuguese dialect: between the way people from the northern islands speak and the way people from the southern islands speak?

[edit] contradictions

This article contradicts itself. On the one hand, it says that Cape Verdean is one dialect of Portuguese with no divisions. Later, it divides Cape Verdean Portuguese between that spoken in the northern islands and that spoken in the southern islands. Either two divisions need to be distinguished, or the part about CV Portuguese being a uniform dialect needs to be taken out. learnportuguese (talk) 01:02, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

I tried to clarify that part. How is it now? Waldir talk 13:45, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
