What structural vocabulary appears in Spanish, Portuguese and Japanese institutional or scholarly screenwriting teaching, and how far does it differ from Anglo-American three-act teaching?

Screenwriting courses outside English read here mostly use the Anglo-American toolkit: a Valencia course teaches turning points, inciting incident, climax and the hero's journey; a Brazilian article summarises Field, Chion, Comparato and McKee, including three acts; a Japanese syllabus lists kishotenketsu and hako-gaki (box-writing) as a basic lesson without defining them. No primary craft manual in Korean, Hindi or Arabic was found (thin result). Curator qualifications: Documents read 2026-10-22; bibles are studio-owned works hosted by a third party: short quotes only, no redistribution. Comparato escaleta and Logos/Pathos/Ethos details not separately located. Limitations: Documents read 2026-10-22; bibles are studio-owned works hosted by a third party: short quotes only, no redistribution. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
