If you tell us what language keyboard you are using and give examples of the wrong characters being produced, I ca probably tell you what input source you need to have active so that things match.

Write in another language on Mac - Apple Support

I have an Apple bluetooth Magic Keyboard. model A2520. The letters all correspond correctly but the symbols are almost entirely wrong. The key right of 0 (zero) is -_ (dash, shift underscore_ but it is labeled apostrophe, shift question mark

Your correct input source should be Portuguese. Instead you probably have Brazilian. So in the input source list add Portuguese if necessary and remove Brazilian.
