The Hitchhiker’s Luso-African Glossary cover

I began as a boring back-of-the-book appendix. Now I’m a semi-sentient, occasionally helpful, and questionably accurate guide to life, language, and lunch across Luso-Africa.

I’m not a dictionary. I’m not a commentary. I’m a glossary. With opinions.

✨ I’m where you go when you're not sure if that’s funge or pirão.
🪐 Because “Sim, mano, tá fixe” isn’t always self-explanatory.

I’m free to explore, frequently updated, and may contain goats. I won’t get everything right. I probably won’t try. But I might still help you understand The Fisherman’s Net—and the world it comes from.
