Wikipedia

  1. Mineiro

    Mineiro (Portuguese pronunciation: [miˈnejɾu] (listen)), Mineirês, or the Brazilian mountain dialect (Portuguese: montanhês), is the Brazilian Portuguese term for the characteristic accent spoken in the heart of the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais, and also in its capital, Belo Horizonte, and its historical cities (Ouro Preto, Mariana, Sabará, Diamantina, Tiradentes, São João del-Rei etc.). Ten million people, about half of the state's population, speak it. This dialect is often hard to understand for people outside the region where it is spoken due to heavy assimilation and elision. The first scientific study of the dialect was the Esboço de um Atlas Linguístico de Minas Gerais (EALMG), "Draft of a Linguistic Atlas for Minas Gerais". The work was done in 1977 by the Federal University of Juiz de Fora.The term is also the demonym of Minas Gerais.
