How lexically similar are Spanish and Portuguese? If a Portuguese were to read a Spanish text will he be able to roughly get the idea of the text?

>How lexically similar are Spanish and Portuguese?
89%. I'm learning Spanish and it's very easy to understand written Portuguese.
>>61078086
Portuguese is a slavic language spanish is romance
>If a Portuguese were to read a Spanish text will he be able to roughly get the idea of the text?
Probably, i, as an hispanophone have no trouble doing just that. I could follow conversations (text) and read entire wikipedia articles and understand 95% of what is written; mind you, only when a traditional or formal lexicon is used, trying to read Brazilian whatsap messages is just about impossible for me.

>>61078086
It's really easy to understand spanish if you're portuguese
>>61078086
>>61078086
Spanish and portuguese are basically the same language with two strongly different accents

I'm sick. I'm not supposed to be laughing this hard.
>>61078086
Whats portuguese? I have never heard this language before, is it from some tribe in africa? Well, idk how close it is from spanish m8. But Brazilian and spanish are very similar
>>61081770
>French and Italian closer than French and Spanish
People never believe me when I say that French is easier for italian-speakers.
>>61078631
Not even us can sometimes
>>61082118
The irony it's in 16th century the Italian language was very popular in France and almost everybody speak it.They even think that French will be extinct
>>61083259
Donne moi la source.

che pecatto che non sia successo
Why do people still wanna learn Spanish instead of Portuguese?
What`s their problem?
Portugues e uma lingua de camponeses
Espanhol e uma lingue de conquestadores e matamoros
Deal with it, faggots
>>61083945
Portuguese just sounds ugly tbqhwy.
I also can't stand Occitan/Catalan to be frank.
>>61083945
Portugues: slutty Brazil and boring Portugal with gay Christiano
Spanish: all the rest of latin culture
Nobody learns Slovakian instead of Russian
>>61084136
>Catalan
same here
>>61084136
I agree that European Portuguese sounds awkward but I wasn't talking about it, friendo. So let me remake my question: Why do people learn Spanish instead of Brazilian?
>>61084153
>all the rest of latin culture
What rest? Reggaeton? You prefer that instead of Bossa Nova? Ok.
>>61084591
The Spanish speaking world is diverse with contrasts like Mexico-Uruguay, Cuba-Chile, Peru-Spain
Brazil is just Brazil.
>>61084591
And... Brazilian sounds gayish to me.
...drinking Sagres beer now...
>>61084057
are you portuguese? in switzerland you are a plague
I can understand spanish, it's more easy than french and italian. I studied spanish for 3 months, and I was able to read everything. Text reading is easy for portuguese speakers, there is many words in common, but also somo false friends.
>>61084996
They are not a plague 2bqh

>>61084885
>contrasts like Mexico-Uruguay, Cuba-Chile, Peru-Spain
lol this is literally all the same JAJAJANIÑOS shit
meanwhile you have literally brasil-portugal which is about as much of a contrast as you can get. one of the happiest yet most violent countries in the world vs one of the saddest, quietest and most peaceful countries in the world

>>61082118
Written only though. Spoken I can't understand french at all
I can't stand Spanish with its constant barrage of equally paced syllables. It sounds like machine gun fire, a very aggressive and outgoing language.
Portuguese on the other hand has more colour to it, the af/fricatives contrasting the vowels, which are themselves less open than in Spanish, almost dipthongs.

slovenia knows whats up
>>61087586
Im ok with portuguese when portuguese people speak it.
Just not when it's the Brazillians.
>>61087613
Wtf is with that Albanian shit and why is it cinnected somehow to Romanian and Slovenian? I'm Moldavian and apart from some proposed 100 words or so that are similar in both languages, the two are really fucking different. Also, if 100 words are grounds for connexion, please put us in the slavic circle cuz nigga we're full of em.

Fuck, not to be racist or anything, but why exactly is it that it seems that every single person in Southeast Asia is good at spanish?

Spaniards and Portuguese had their sphere of influence in SE Asia, specifically Philippines
>>61101303
Comos estas. I've like Dora the explorer and Spanish seems easy and fun to speak. Other languages like French seems gay and German seems too complicated.

El tagalog tiene mucha influencia del castellano
