The word “brasileiro” is used to define who is born in Brazil since the 16th century, when our country was discovered. At that time, the term “brasileiro” was used to refer to the brazilwood dealer. Strictly speaking, we should call these people brasilense or brasilês, but that was not what prevailed. The suffix -eiro, present in the brasileiro term, does not indicate origin or naturalness, but the word has become more palatable for general use.
