Backlog is a term heavily adopted in Brazilian tech and startup culture, where Agile and Scrum methodologies are widely used. It's often used without translation in business environments. In traditional or non-tech sectors, Portuguese equivalents like 'acúmulo de trabalho pendente' or 'pendências' are preferred. The word reflects the growing influence of English business terminology in modern Brazilian corporate culture.
