Some more modern Portuguese loanwords derive from Brazilian Portuguese rather than European Portuguese, although in some cases both variations can be used, e.g. BP ''xícara'' and EP ''chávena'', both meaning "cup", become ''shíxher''(<small>Cápa</small>: [[Help:IPA|[ʃík‖ʼɛɾ]]]), "cup" and ''sháfna''(<small>Cápa:</small> [[Help:IPA|<nowiki>[ʃɐ́ɸnɐ]</nowiki>]]), "glass(container)". | |||
