Portuguese
Portuguese differs enough between Portugal and Brazil in vocabulary, verb usage and pronoun placement that translating for one audience and shipping to the other is noticeable immediately.
Written in Latin · Romance family
Choose PT-PT or PT-BR explicitly; bare PT resolves to PT-PT and will read as foreign to a Brazilian audience.
American English
English is the shortest of the supported languages in almost every measurement, which is why interfaces designed in English tend to break when translated into anything else.
Written in Latin · West Germanic family
British and American spelling, date order and vocabulary differ enough to matter; choose EN-GB or EN-US explicitly instead of bare EN.
Formality for this pair
American English does not distinguish formal from informal address, so the formality parameter is accepted but has no effect.
