forró
Forró is a couple dance and a genre of music that originated in northeast Brazil and has evolved to include many different musical beats and dance styles. In the beginning, forró was associated with the working class. However, it is now very much international.
Oh, and by the way – it’s pronounced “faw-ho” because the double “r” in forró is pronounced “ho” in Portuguese.
