[TimorLesteStudies] Diferenças semânticas entre trabalhar e linguagens oficiais/Semantic differences between official and working languages

[Estevao Cabral]

Dear all,
 
Two final points of clarification: Tetum is a co-official language with Portuguese in Timor-Leste.
 
1. No mention of Tetum has yet been made in the discussion so far. Yet Tetum is an important unifying language in multilingual Timor-Leste.
 
2. Bahasa Indonesia has been a working language along with English since 1999.
 
I hope this resolves matters!
 
Estevao
