Mario Freitas Sep 28: Yes A note explaining briefly what it is, is essential in the first occurence, as we do with most foreign and untranslatable terms anyway.
philgoddard Sep 28: Gabriela You haven't given any context, but it may be appropriate to add a few words of explanation as Mario implies. Readers won't know what coalho cheese is.
