Amazon adjusts prices based on the local VAT (Value Added Tax) rates applicable in each country. While the base price of our product is set in euros (€), each Amazon marketplace applies its own country’s VAT, which can vary significantly (e.g., Germany vs. Sweden).

Additionally, when the price is shown in other currencies (such as USD, GBP, or SEK), slight differences may also occur due to current exchange rates and currency conversion fees set by Amazon.

So, if you notice a variation in price between marketplaces, it’s typically due to local tax regulations and currency fluctuations.

No — but AI helped us a lot!
The book was designed, written, and compiled by two human authors — Katarzyna, a linguist, and Vanessa, a native Portuguese speaker. Since the book includes over 4,100 examples, some were inspired or suggested by AI.
We also used AI tools during the editing stage to support grammar and style checks. All AI-generated suggestions were carefully reviewed and approved by the authors to ensure authenticity, accuracy, and clarity.
