Cirio said: My bad, of course I don't know more about Brasil than someone who lives there. I was basing what I said on my experience whenever I traveled there (I've been to Brasil 4 times now). Usually I'd get around speaking English in the cities, but in rural areas I was actually able to get along by speaking Spanish. I was surprised at how many people understood the language. That's why I assumed most people in Brasil speak Spanish (also since it is surrounded by Spanish speaking countries). |
It's Portuguese... a lot of words are the same in Portuguese and Spanish... people here don't speak Spanish... when I travel to Argentina I talk in Portuguese and they understand too... Mexico same thing... the languages are similar... you were talking in Spanish and we in Portuguese and it is perfectly possible to understand.
