Ordinal numbers in portuguese

[SdotVdot]

How to remove the hyphen from ordinal numbers in portuguese?

For example, the command output \ OrdinalStringnum {21} is:
vigésimo-primeiro

But it should be vigésimo primeiro.

I am afraid it is hard coded in the package, in the line ``` TeX \protected@edef#2{\@@fc@ordstr-}% ``` which one can find here (lines 770/787) ```TeX \ifnum\@strctr>99\relax \@tmpstrctr=\@strctr \divide\@tmpstrctr by 100\relax \ifnum#1>1000\relax \let\@@fc@ordstr#2\relax \protected@edef#2{\@@fc@ordstr-}% \fi \let\@@fc@ordstr#2\relax \protected@edef#2{\@@fc@ordstr\@hundredthstring{\@tmpstrctr}}% \fi \@FCmodulo{\@strctr}{100}% \ifnum#1>99\relax \ifnum\@strctr>0\relax \let\@@fc@ordstr#2\relax \protected@edef#2{\@@fc@ordstr-}% \fi \fi ``` Is this no-hyphen the same for Portugese and Brazilian ?
