There doesn't appear to be a localized version of FM for Portuguese.
The closest you're going to get is Spanish, which is not very close.

However, with FM10 you can use Custom Menus, and replace all menu items
with Portuguese translations. You can name fields anything you want.
Using Error trapping and writing custom dialogs for errors will make it
appear to users that the solution is entirely localized.

Using Portuguese as an indexing language, so it sorts properly, is also
a choice in the application.

But, for the developer, you'll still be working mostly in English.
