De Espanha nem bom vento nem bom casamento.
(From Spain, neither good wind nor good marriage)
This is due to the cold winds from Spain affecting the coastal climate here and the marriage part is due to the part of our history where Spain inherited Portugal through a royal marriage.

Há mouro na costa
(There's a moor on the coast)
Used when you mean to say someone is falling in love.

Also isn't there a saying about Portugal and oranges in Turkey or something? I have no idea what this is about but a Turkish guy who studied here kept referring to us as oranges

>>53480586

In the UK we say " Are you American?" when we see someone getting shot.

Arabic word for "orange" is bortuqal, since Turks have no culture of their own they probably took that word from Arabic.
