Lesson 1:5 wrong flags?

Couldn't help but notice Brazilian flag listed as Portuguese, and American flag listed as English. Nitpicking aside, what are the terms for them? Is it as simple as Braziliano and Americano? Also wondering what British and European would be.

The flags are not prompts for the names of countries, they are prompts for the languages spoken. The prompts for countries are the map-outlines of the countries themselves. Confusing, I know, but that's how it is.

Notice when the American flag is shown, the response is 'el inglés' and not 'Inglaterra'.

Assumed it was a language thing, definitely confusing. I can't be the first person to find that odd. - fontanero, MAY 5, 2010
