Here's a bit of trivia:

Census Today a census is a complete enumeration or counting of a population. The Latin root of the word is censere which probably was derived from the Greek cosmos for order. The original meaning was of one who judged, assessed, or estimated and was used in judging the degree of wrong and assessing the penalty (tax) to be paid. It is clear from these combined activities that our word for censor (one who judges the acceptability of materials) and censure (expression of blame or disapproval) are both related. The first attempt at a census might well have been the ecclesiastical census of England in 1547. In 1694 an act was passed calling for a complete census of the English people, but it was never completed. Up into the 18th century some people objected to the census on religious grounds, protesting their fear that the "Sin of David" would bring God's wrath upon them (see "Sin of David")

So.....the English words "censure" and "censor" both derive from the same Latin root. But they don't share the same meaning. Perhaps they do in Portuguese: but not in English.

The link is to an interesting list of word origins -- for those of us that are obscure enough to enjoy things like that.
