Just a short (and pedantic) comment: in Portuguese (or at least in Brazil),
the correct way to abbreviate the word "primeiro" is 1.º
If you write 1° (without the point), this should be read as "um grau" (one
degree). That said, not many people use these concepts correctly, and more
often than not you will find 1° representing "primeiro".
I know that the link in the wikitionary also says that 1º is the correct
abbreviation for primeiro, but I think they got it wrong there.
Take care,
Gilberto
