Usage notes

edit

As opposed to most country names in Portuguese, Portugal is normally used without the definite article, e.g.: de Portugal 'from Portugal', em Portugal 'in Portugal', a Portugal 'to Portugal'. However, it does take a definite article when it has a modifier, as in o Portugal do século XIX '19th-century Portugal'. This peculiarity applies to many other coutry and place names such as Angola, Moçambique, Cabo Verde, São Tomé e Príncipe, Essuatíni, Macau, Timor-Leste, Andorra, Israel, Aragão, Castela or Leão, as well as to most city names.
