Is the word igualmente the same in Brazilian and European Portuguese?

Yes

The word "igualmente" is identical in meaning, spelling, and grammatical function in both Brazilian and Continental Portuguese. It is an adverb that translates to "equally" or "likewise." The only differences between the two dialects are pronunciation:

• Vowel Reduction: In Brazilian Portuguese, unstressed vowels (particularly the "e" in the middle of the word) are often much more reduced or nearly silent depending on the regional accent.
• Phonetic Rhythm: The cadence and the way the "l" is articulated differ slightly due to the distinct prosodic patterns of each dialect.
