Category:Portuguese adapted borrowings from taxonomic names

Portuguese loanwords from taxonomic names formed with the addition of an affix to conform the term to the normal morphology of Portuguese.

To categorize a term into this category, use {{af|pt|type=adap|mul-tax:source_term|-affix}} (or {{af|pt|type=abor|...}}, using the same syntax), where source_term is the taxonomic name term that the term in question was borrowed from and affix is the Portuguese affix used to adapt the taxonomic name term. An example is Polish adresować (“to address”), which would use {{af|pl|type=adap|fr:adresser|-ować}} to indicate that is was formed from French adresser with the addition of the Polish verb-forming affix -ować.
