Looking for Brazilian players to discuss the game and its nomenclature

Hello, everyone!

I'm a novice at the game, and excited to get deeper into it.

As I was getting familiar with the game and its community, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that many of the, let's say, old guard places (FIBS, DailyGammon, and this very forum) were still up and running, and that I could once again use a simple forum to read and discuss with other people. So, thanks for having me here!

I started working on translating GNU Backgammon to Brazilian Portuguese last month, and I'd like to, if at all possible, use/preserve whatever vocabulary the Brazilian backgammon old guard have/had, while also knowing how Brazilians refer to game analysis concepts (if they use any translate forms for things like "equity", winning by "backgammon", etc. or if they just use the English terms), but I've found little backgammon material in pt_BR and I don't know or have access to other players from here.

So (and I apologize for asking for things in my very first post), if there are any Brazilians active around here, I'd like to get in touch with you and discuss your language of the game; or, if you know any Brazilian players, I'd appreciate if you could pass this thread or my e-mail to them, or pass me their name or contact, so that we could get in touch with each other.

Thanks a lot!
