Cultural Tip
In Brazil, the English word ‘streaming’ is fully integrated into everyday tech language, especially among younger speakers. ‘Navegar’ is almost always understood as ‘to browse the internet’, not just ‘to sail’. Keep the tone slightly formal when you’re talking about product specifications, but you can drop the verb ‘permitir’ in casual conversation (e.g., ‘Dá pra fazer streaming e navegar’).
