Koreia f

1. (rare, proscribed) Alternative spelling of Coreia

The Portuguese Language Orthographic Agreement of 1990 recommends the use of nativized forms of placenames (instead of unadapted borrowings) if these are already established in the language. As such, the form Coreia is preferred.

Alpes-de-Haute-Provence m pl

1. (rare, sometimes proscribed) Alternative form of Alpes da Alta Provença

The Portuguese Language Orthographic Agreement of 1990 recommends the use of nativized forms of placenames (instead of unadapted borrowings) if these are already established in the language. As such, the form Alpes da Alta Provença is preferred.

Andréia

1. (Brazilian Portuguese spelling) Pre-reform spelling (used until 1990) of the given name Andreia.

This given name is spelled according to defunct orthographic norms; however, it still sees modern use as an archaistic variation, because the Orthographic Agreement of 1990 does not regulate personal names. Archaistic given names are widespread in Brazil (but less common in Portugal), and, in this context, letters in the name that were traditionally silent may be pronounced.

Luiz

1. Pre-reform spelling (used until 1943 in Brazil and 1911 in Portugal) of the given name Luís.
