This had to be deliberate.

Given it sounds unfortunate in Portuguese too, I also think so.

Aww, but he's such an eager bottom. 😏

I was expecting fuckery regarding diacritics*, but this is way worse.

*such as writing ⟨Ç⟩ with the bottom of the cedilla on the same level as the letters, instead of below them. Or an extra-short ⟨Ã⟩ to give the tilde some room. Both look disgusting.
