You idiot he was referring to Brazilians

>>73764827
I think he was talking about Brasil.
We aren't called monkeys in general, Moors yeah, but not monkeys.

Only spoken tho.

Not sure if related, but sometimes I tried to comunicate in Portuguese with spanishs in Spain and at least 30% of the times they tought I was speaking Italian with them.

>>73763903
Spaniards understands us more than we understand their language, and that's true for every Romance language. The reason is that Italian is the closest to Latin, both in terms of number of words, and how much the words evolved phonetically. Even Romanians can understand Italian a bit.

>>73764226
>Nice. Is there other instances of languages being so similar that this happens?

I can read Dutch Wikipedia articles without much effort. Understanding them is a different thing.

Id say I could be fluent after 3 months living in Swampland

>>73764388
Why are Italians so racist? More racists even than Americans.

>>73765516
You could probably understand catalan better, it's like some weird missing link between Spanish, French and Italian.

>>73765846
wtf sounds nothing like Spanish, how much does a non Catalan Spaniard understand?

>>73765846
Catalan is just more Spanish-sounding Italian.

10/10 language

>>73765846
I literally understood nothing

>>73765653
Inferiority complex

>>73765939
I'm not catalan and I understood everything.

>>73765961
Uh? Weird.

>>73765653
we just don't care

>>73765846
This, as a spanish and catalan speaker it's quite easy to speak in made up italian

I dunno, lots of people in Catalunya doesn't speak catalan(immis from Andalucia, Aragon, Murcia etc) and we get along fine. Lots of time people switch between catalan or castilian depending of the contest (I use castilian to insult, and catalan for every day stuff for example). Outside catalunya only a very obnoxious Independentista would use Catalan (unless it's in Valencia/balears).

>>73765846
I didn't understand anything
But I once read an article in catalan and it was basically italian without the last syllable

>>73766035
>Uh? Weird.
It's probably something weird with the pronunciation

>>73766219
>>73766236
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjeAl6RQILM This one better?
It's a lot easier to understand Italian/french in text form for me, but at least I get +50% of what an italian is singing if I try to understand.

>>73765846
very nice but i didn't understood nothing

>>73765630

It's hard to get lyrics, words are stretched and pronounced in unnatural ways to fit the rhythm. I have a C2 in English, I can watch English TV just fine but I usually have troubles with most songs

what do you guys understand?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nsgyay6xPbE

>>73766325
Songs are much more difficult to understand
Maybe give us some TV news

>>73766325
No
Spoken spanish is far more understandable
Hell, even french is more understandable

>>73766398
Godverdomme

>>73763903
I wouldn't say to the point of holding a conversation, but yes we can kinda understand each other in some basic things like "where is the nearest market?"

>>73766517
General meaning of the sentences.

>>73766517
Understood 60% of it, almost all the words have their equivalent in spanish but their placement it's a bit akward.

>>73766517
Yes

Bretty well, better than expected.

>>73766678
it's a funny-trash translation of a japanese song, it's meant to be a bit awkward

>tfw French bastardized my language so that there's no mutual intelligibility with any other language

Closest thing was watching the Dutch PM debates and occasionally catching 5 or so words that made sense and then it became gibberish again.

>>73763903
I don't care about any of this.

What about English though? Could I learn some else easily?

>>73767118
Double kike

English speakers, watch this and tell me what you think. Close your eyes so that you aren't biased by the subtitles. I feel like I could understand some. Still, not at all comparable to Italian and Spanish, German and Dutch, Swedish and Norwegian etc.

Io le monstra un vetulo qui sedeva in un angulo. Immediatemente Pythias, in su capacitate de edil, crita a ille con voce multo aspere: "Non mesmo mi amicos e nostre hospites estranie tu sparnia, tu qui a un tal precio valuta ti ridicule pisces e qui reduce per le caritate del comestibiles le flor de Thessalia a un imagine de solitude equal a un rocca. Sed tu non essera impunite. Io te facera saper de qual maniera le improbos debe esser corrigite sub mi autoritate." E post jectar le contento del corbe super le solo, ille ordina a un official marchar super le pisces e fullar omnes. Contente de su severitate mi amico Pythias me consilia vader via e dice: "Me suffice, car Lucio, iste grande vergonia del vetulo." Consternate per su actos e multo stupefacte, io vade al banios, private per le forte mesuras de mi providente condiscipulo e de mi moneta e de mi cena.

1. Very well. The singer it's meh, the voice isn't cute.
2. Surpisingly well, some parts I didn't understand tough. Good singer, powerful voice but like 1, not cute.
3. Very well. Singer is meh, but cute.
4. If she is calling Cthulu I wouldn't know. Cuuute voice tough.
5. Spanish/catalan with lots of sh and h, I understood better than italian but I have a granfather than was Portuguse. Singer is good, voice cute.
6. Dang, worse than I tough. I can read some BD but perhaps I understood 1/5 words. Singer isn't bad, cute voice.

I'll be quite honest with you, BR portuguese divided itself, with many regional terms, expressions and accents. Hell, most people can't understand Rio's portuguese lmao.

But yeah, you'd probably have more luck with european portuguese because br portuguese is way different in pronounciation and "word placement".
