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

No

While the word "queimada" shares a common origin and can be used in both dialects to describe something that has been burnt (as an adjective) or the state of being sunburnt, there are significant differences in usage and meaning:

• Meaning (Game): In Brazil, "Queimada" is the standard, proper name for the popular game known in English as Dodgeball. In Portugal, while the word exists, it is not used to name this game. A Portuguese person would likely refer to it as "jogo de apanhar" or simply describe the activity.
• Usage (Wildfires): In Brazil, "queimada" is frequently used to describe large-scale forest fires or wildfires. In Portugal, the term "incêndio" is much more common and natural for large-scale disasters, whereas "queimada" in Portugal often specifically refers to the intentional act of burning land for agricultural purposes (slash-and-burn).
• Usage (Idioms): In Brazil, the expression "estar queimado" is a common way to say someone is blacklisted or has lost their reputation. In Portugal, while "queimado" is understood, a person would more naturally say "estar mal visto" (to be poorly regarded).
• Vocabulary (Contextual): When referring to school breaks, Brazilians use "recreio," while Portuguese people typically use "intervalo."
