Resposta esperada

In my neighbourhood I notice two frequent uses of English: café menus using terms like 'latte' and retail windows advertising 'clearance sale.' The café terms can attract tourists and standardize beverage names, but some older residents may not recognise loanwords and feel excluded. 'Clearance sale' draws customers with the promise of discounts, yet without clear details shoppers can misunderstand conditions or assume special imports. I recommend the council require businesses to pair prevalent English terms with a brief Portuguese explanation on public-facing materials (two to five words). This preserves commercial appeal and international vocabulary while improving accessibility and reducing potential confusion for local users.
