Cabral's explanation

Read the full text in our reader

— Agora, não impede— disse Cabral, que continuava a refletir,— não impede que nos casos de maior formalidade, atos públicos, cartas de cerimônia, etc; se empregue o título inteiro: protonotário apostólico. No uso comum, basta protonotário.— Justamente, assentiram todos.

Now, it does not prevent, said Cabral, who continued to reflect, it does not prevent that in cases of greater formality, public acts, letters of ceremony, etc., one employs the full title: protonotary apostolic. In common use, protonotary suffices. Exactly, they all agreed.
