Default you gotta watch out Vendor!

Brazilian newspapers yank content from Google News, blame lack of compensation

http://www.theverge.com/2012/10/21/3...tt-google-news

Every site on the internet works hard on SEO, but the Brazilians don't want to be listed?

What are they angry about? google reposting a title and a few sentences at the beginning. And the French are doing the same too?!

I knew it was Portugese, but I thought it was still two words.

Apparently sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't. I thought only English did that.

It depends about the meaning and what are we talking about. Together is used to explain cause and reason, ask bout , etc. Separately is used when using nouns like reason, motive, etc.

Latin derived languages...

Well, Old English was derived from Old German, with a little Lating left over from the Roman Occupation, though they fought that. Then the Saxons invaded and brought more German with them. Then the Normans came along and some French got thrown in.

Modern English is truly a mess.
