In both Brazilian and North American tech culture, the term 'bug' is extremely prevalent and often preferred over 'code error' in informal settings. However, 'code error' is used in more formal documentation and educational contexts. In Brazil, developers frequently code-switch between Portuguese and English terminology, with 'bug' being universally understood in tech communities.
