Well, I can say that Verdurian has lots of 'stolen' Portuguese words in it, such as:
<p>Verd. AVO / AVA 'grandfather/grandmother' ==> same meaning in Port. AV� / AV�
<br>Verd. E (ESAN verb) 'is' ==> same meaning in Port. �
<br>Verd. ELREI 'queen' ==> Port. EL-REI 'the king (of Portugal)'
<br>Verd. SECLOR 'century' ==> same meaning in Port. S�CULO
<br>Verd. BREVE 'short' ==> same meaning (talking about time) in Port. BREVE
<br>Verd. ALTE 'high' ==> same meaning Port. ALTO
<br>Verd. MACRE 'thin' ==> same meaning Port. MAGRO
<br>Verd. ANELO 'ring' ==> same meaning Port. ANEL
<br>Verd. BAST�N 'stick' ==> same meaning Port. BAST�O
<br>Verd. METAN 'to put' ==> Port. METER 'to put into'
<br>Verd. DAN 'to give' ==> same meaning Port. DAR
<br>Verd. SYEL 'sky' ==> same meaning Port. C�U
<br>Verd. CUON 'dog' ==> same meaning Port. C�O
<br>Verd. URS 'bear' ==> same meaning Port. URSO
<p>And the most important 'stolen' words:
<p>Verd. VERD�RIA 'deep green plain' ==> Port. VERDURA 'vegetable'
<br>Verd. VERDE 'green' ==> same meaning Port. VERDE
<p>Of course there are much more, but it'd be impossible to list them all here.
<p>Cheers,
<p>Gustavo Pereira
