Hi dear teachers,
Please, Could you help me translate this sentence into Portuguese: `An ethnically diverse, faith-based world brotherhood whose Prophet spoke against racism more than 1400 years ago.`
Thanks a lot

I am a Portuguese native speaker, but do not teach Portuguese. Below please find how I would translate:
Uma irmandade mundial etnicamente diversa, baseada na f�, cujo profeta falou contra o racismo h� mais de 1400 anos.
Let �s see what other people say
Enjoy your Carnival!

Hi!
Although I �m not that good at translations word by word, since I don �t use them to teach English or Spanish, and usually don �t join threads about translation, I tend to agree with yours. It sounds perfectly acceptable to me.
Have a nice day.
