Mostly, I've been wondering why does Portugal even exist and how in the 7 hells they speak a different language even though they were the same country as Spain for ages! Anyways, good luck learning Spanish dear old carioca. Some people in Spain speak a different language or dialect that looks a lot like Portuguese. Galego, I think. I remember meeting some of them and being perplexed. What was that, something even closer to Portuguese than Spanish? lol Oh, and before we go off topic: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
