Hi, Pete.
Your guess was not accurate. While I taught some Euphoria at the
Kennedy University in Buenos Aires, the students do not know Pascal but
instead C and C++. And I didn't gave them homework to translate
from a language to another, but insted to try writing original programs
in Euphoria.
Moreover, Buenos Aires is located in Argentina, where people speak
Spanish and not Portuguese. Both languages being very similar, I usually
have no difficulty understanding and even writing and speaking brazilian
Portuguese, especially considering that I took my holydays in Brazil during
many years, and even attended to a Portuguese course...

Oi Paulo, onde você mora?

Best regards to all.
