Not really. Apart from the spelling, I prefer to read books/articles in English than in my mother language (Portuguese). No declension, little conjugation, loads of monosyllables AND it's an European language, so you an often guess the meaning of new words |
Brazilian-Portuguese I am told that when Brazilians speak "Portuguese" in Portugal, the Portugese over there say it's not Portuguese.
I'm just acting like a big know it all really. lol I have a lot of latin friends lately. One of them is really into all the different latin cultures. He's traveled a lot and he knows all the different accents and whatnot. I've been learning a lot from him actually, it's cool. He's from Honduras and has family in Italy too. Most people think he's colombian because of his accent, but I love listening to him imitate the different spanish accents. It used to baffle me that anyone could tell a difference, but it's the same thing as us Americans being able to tell someone from Georgia apart from someone from Minnesota.
lol I just had to double check what thread this was. Sorry for the hijack
