Hi, \o
There is a long list of arguments about this. As a Frenchman, I refuse to let my flag be used to exclude most French speakers.

The same goes for the Portuguese. Portugal is a country where Portuguese is the official language, but it is only the 4th most populous country (Brazil, Angola and Mozambique are more populous), so it is not appropriate to use Portuguese to refer to the language. Idem

Please, just don't.
