How I write Brasil using Kanji?

伯剌西爾

You know that Brasil isn't written using kanji (Chinese characters) in Japan, right? I just showed the above kanji to my Japanese husband and he had no idea what it said.

Brasil is written in katakana in Japan, like this: ブラジル

The kanji in the above answer will not be understood by most Japanese speakers.

Lots of countries have names in kanji (米国 - USA, 英国 - England, etc.) but I believe that they are not commonly used. 伯剌西爾 for Brazil is correct and the kanji is picked because of their phonetics as they map on ぶらじる.

However, as Sira pointed out, the reading of the kanji is not readily understood by all Japanese. :-)

Though we rarely use full kanji for the country names,
people know it means Brazil when we see the letter 伯
as a country name.
The same goes for 独(Germany), 西(Spain), 仏(France), 豪(Australia),
蘭(Holland), 露(Russia)...etc.
