is also used in the Atlantic islands of Madeira
and the Azores, both posessions of Portugal.
The ex-posession of Macau off mainland China also uses European Portuguese.
Brazilian Portuguese and European Portuguese
The difference between the two written forms are very small and only relate to slight differences in spelling regarding accents, eg: sinﾃｳnimo, where the Brazilian has a circumflex accent; sinﾃｴnimo, and where the Brazilian spelling often lacks c or p before c, ﾃｧ, or t, for example: Brazilian fato with European facto, meaning "fact".
The written Portuguese in Macau (China) is very similiar to European Portuguese.
European Portuguese is used in these African countries (see right), although
for lower skilled workers, it is mostly mixed with Creole.
See the Portuguese speaking countries in Africa:
Angola, Cape Verde, East Timor, Equatorial Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Sﾃ｣o Tomﾃｩ and Prﾃｭncipe and Mozambique.
