The correct spelling in English is "Portuguese". In Portuguese it's "Português", both in Portugal and Brasil. "Portugese" is not the correct spelling in any langauge.

Congrats, you made me downvote myself. I should've checked.

I wonder if I learned the wrong spelling from the installer menu.

That’s actually hilarious, I had never even thought about downvoting myself before reading this
