Volkswagen Brazil and Chevrolet Brazil are independent companies

They also have a Gol, which is 75% of a Golf?

Google says it isn't portuguese for golf (that would be "Golfe." Ouch!)

Wait, what is golf in Spanish?

Google says "Golf."

It doesn't matter what it is supposed to be, some Spanish-speaker will use the English name, like when I order a steak, egg, and cheese burrito.

"¿Quieres decir `Steak'?"

Neither K nor S clusters exist in Spanish--like Español and related words.

Which is why native Spanish speakers would ask "You espeak Espanish?"

Wait, "Gol" is "Goal" in Spanish.

Google says it is in Portuguese, too!

So, in Brazil VW Brazil has a Goal.

Cool.

Anyway, the video is a little informative, but mostly loud and annoying. Kids nowadays!
