Also, in Portuguese, the N word is the politically correct way to refer to African people and their descendants.

No, they prefer to be called "pretos"(black) instead of negro (in portuguese its a pc word). It all depends on the demeanor used.

Maybe some prefer that... but the pc word is negro.

I'm not from the north, so I don't know what other meaning they have for nêspera...
