Cultural Note
In Brazil, 'lindo/a' is used very freely and enthusiastically — 'que lindo!' is an exclamation of admiration for anything beautiful. In Portugal, the usage is similar but less effusive. Calling your partner 'lindo/a' is one of the most common compliments in both countries. The superlative 'lindíssimo/a' adds emphasis.
