Great idea! There are already tables in the database for tags, comments, rating and other features. I will include this feature in the next days. And you are right about the pronunciation too, it might be really hard to guess how to pronounce certain words. I will have a look at dictionary.com and merriam webster, I know they include a small audio file with the correct pronunciation of each word. That could work for speak like a brazilian.

Any Brazilians there? Let's share our expressions, sayings and vocabulary with the world. I didn't have time to set up an area to submit new entries yet, so I'm entering them manually. In case you remember any cool expression, send me a message and I will include it (or if you would like to know the meaning of something).
