There's no such language.
Google/Wikipedia tell me it's Portuguese :(
It's Portuguese.
It's Portuguese, but if you want to be specific, you can say Brazilian Portuguese, since Brazilian Portuguese is different from Portuguese from Portugal.

Portuguese politics time:
There's a Orthographic Agreement that needs to be signed and enforced in order for a language to be considered "Portuguese", most countries of Portuguese expression besides Portugal haven't signed it for decades nor do they enforce it yet the Portuguese government keeps updating the Agreement and changing the languange (there was one recently) because otherwise "Portuguese" would loose its current standing.
So while officially it doesn't exists due to assnine decisions of the Portuguese government Brazilians do not speak Portuguese but Brazilian. Even the Brazilian government recognises it by not signing the Agreement.

Like with PT and PT (BR), that would be fine (if the point above wasn't an issue) as it is the problem is that there's been an uprising of places that use PT when they mean PT (BR) and while it normally wouldn't be a problem it's leading a lot of people to consider that Brazilian is actually Portuguese.

Some Brazilians themselves will even tell you in conversation that they speak Brazilian while others still say they speak Portuguese.

You can own a language like that? Who gave them the authority?

They can't. No matter how much the Portuguese shake their impotent fists.

A more correct delineation would point out that Brazilians speak their own dialect of Portuguese in a similar fashion that Americans speak a different dialect of English than the British.

Ok, my portuguese is pretty bad, I need to use PayPal if I don't live in Brasil?

I would use Paypal anyway, just as a tip. I know my bank charges a decent fee to process international payments, and the prepaid card I use does as well. Paypal is a flat $9.33 if you're in the USA.

Brazil's official language is Brazilian Portuguese - not Brazilian, not Portuguese. For most people, and normal day reference, people just say they speak Portuguese since it's just a set of specific Portuguese dialects used mainly by Brazilians even though pronunciations/words of Portuguese/Brazilian Portuguese are now quite different.

You don't say the language of Brazil is Brazilian, because that is technically wrong and should not be taught to people as such.

Sooo... Is there an Australian English? Or Irish English? I have trouble understanding them sometimes at the office. And I am super fluent in American English.
