Latin Languages l Portuguese, Italian, Spanish Speakers, Can They Understand Each Other?

[@nicolopassaro4987]

As Italian, I've worked with two girls one Spanish one Portuguese. They wanted to speak in English or Spanish and I've told them: "Girls, if we speak in our mothertongue languagues, I trust we understand each other perfectly." It was so. Sometimes, we've spoken Spanish all togheter and when I answerd to them in Spanish or Portugues they tried to answerd me in Italian. That's real inclusion: when you are able to speak many languages, not just one. We have brother/sisters languages so... Let's speak in Italian, Spanish, Portuguese when we meet each other, guys!

As a native Russian speaker, Brazilian Portuguese doesn't sound like Russian to me, which I can't say about European Portuguese.

Yes, I guess there's no thing like or next to Brazilian Portuguese in the world. Even European Portuguese. It's very common that Portuguese media needs to be subtitled for Brazilians.

I've seen stories from Hispanics saying that Russians who speak Spanish have a Brazilian tone, many Russians in Brazil report that they sometimes think they hear someone speaking in Russian but they don't understand anything, Russian and Portuguese have a very similar resonance, both have many phonemes in common, this makes the muscular structure of the vocal apparatus similar

I speak neither Spanish nor Portuguese as a native speaker, but I think there is a big difference between European and Brazilian Portuguese. In Portugal, many vowels are swallowed, so it becomes a lot harder to understand.

[@serfin01]

It depends of the accent. Spoken Portuguese can be harder to understand than Italian due to the phonetical system of Portuguese language. In fact, the most mutual intelligibility languages among the big Romance languages are Spanish and Italian, not Portuguese and Spanish.

I’m surprised that Ana understood a lot of what Sofia said. She understands more than Sofia on the other way around with Brazilian Portuguese. I’m Italian and I travelled once in Portugal and I tried to speak with locals in different part of Portugal, and when we both spoke slowly we almost completely understood each other, at least by the context. To my ears, Brazilian Portuguese sounds a little bit harsh to grasp, maybe just because I’m less used to it, who knows…🤷🏻‍♀️ I think it is easier for Italian people, when we hear single words in Portuguese, we can easily focus on that; but in a normal speed conversation, we just get lost with the sounds that are too different from ours. I can’t really say that much about Spanish because I’m currently studying it, so I’m not completely blind with it. Let’s say that I started to learn Spanish right after I realized how close was to Italian, so that would have been a shame to not learn it properly! 😅 When Andrea described the giraffe, I immediately thought “Ouch, Sofia is gonna getting the false friend there”, because “largo” in Spanish means “long” but in Italian means “wide”. But she must have learned it at some point that is a false friend, brava! 👏🏻👏🏻 When I reach the point of good knowledge of the Spanish language I would start learning Portuguese as well, at least the basics of it, it’s definitely worth it! 🇵🇹🇧🇷 Anyway, we have three beautiful languages here, and three great girls to represent our countries! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Curiously, (or not) "largo" in portuguese has the same meaning as in the italian, which is wide.

Even though Spanish and Portuguese are closer, most Spanish people will understand Italian more, because Italian is very well articulated and clear, unlike Portuguese, with lots of nasal sounds and vowel swallowing. Of course, if its written, Portuguese is much easier

You are right. As native Spanish speaker, European Portuguese sounds to me like a Slavic language and it’s pretty hard to understand. However, Italian sound clear and well articulated as you said earlier.

[@lArmstrongl]

Articulation and clarity are subjective's questions, but it's true that portuguese has too much phonemes than the others so people don't arrive to understand and a lot of phrases sounds not so clear. For exemple, Portuguese has 5 differents r sounds, but Spanish and Italian just 2, and so on and so on. It's the reason that brazilians understands better than they are understoods. Theremost Ana doesn't swallow any vowel because basicly do that it's excepcional in Brazil.

@@lArmstrongl Generally speaking Spanish speakers understand better Italian than Portuguese. Same regard to Italian speakers who understand better Spanish than Portuguese. The different ways to pronounce some consonants by Portuguese speakers depend on where they are located, not only the vowels swallowing phenomenon, implicates a lower understanding of the Portuguese language compared to Italian one.

[@lArmstrongl]

@@serfin01 You mean the Spanish speakers mostly from Spain ? Like we’ve to consider that Spain and Italie related physically, culturally, etc. Also one subjective question. Being easy to understand doesn’t mean that one language would be more clear than another and talk about subjective aspects shows that. About the R, one native uses at least 2 types of R, but he knows the others at point to recognize them more or less clearly. Also anyway, this subjective perspective doesn’t change the fact that 5 types of R can make hard to understand Brazilians. Anyway someone can thinks that this language or another one is more articulated etc but this isn’t a objective point of view.

[@ivanovichdelfin8797]

@@contreirasf Había entendido mal tu comentario. Es cierto que muchos hispanohablantes reclaman no entender el portugués, pero mi opinión es que más que una falta de capacidad es una falta de actitud. Muchos hispanohablantes escuchan portugués y en lugar de tratar de entender bien y asociar cada palabra al español, escuchan muchos fonemas desconocidos y se rinden. Todos los hispanohablantes podemos entender el portugués sin haberlo estudiado, lo que pasa es que algunos (si no es la mayoría) no se esfuerzan en tratar de escucharlo y asociar cada fonema con el respectivo en español. Yo soy hablante de español nativo y nunca he tenido prpblrmas para entender el portugués. Quizá al principio no llegaba a entender todo lo que decían (diría que entendía entre un 0 y un 100% depende del acento). Hay un acento de Portugal que no se si es el de Lisboa o cuál, pero que no entendía nada de lo que decían y de hecho pensaba que era un idioma eslavo (rumano o albanés o alguno de esos) y resulta que me dijeron que eran de Portugal. Me quedé sorprendido al saber que era portugués (porque ya había tenido contactos previos con portugués de otras regiones de Portugal y con el portugués de Brasil, a los que por contra sí que les comprendía muy bien, algunos incluso al 100%. Probablemente ese contacto que tuve con portugueses que como te dije pensaba que era un idioma eslavo, hubiese entendido mucho más si me hubiese esforzado en escuchar cada palabra y tratar de descifrar lo dicho en la oración. Los hispanos que dicen ser incapaces de entender el portugués es básicamente una tapadera e indirectamente están diciendo "no quiero esforzarme a entender vuestro acento". No temas en hablar portugués con los que dicen que no te entienden. Si quieres puedes probar utilizar un portugués que opte por vocabulario en común y más al estilo portuñol si es necesario para facilitarles la asimilación de los fonemas.

As a Spanish speaker, I found the Portuguese girl's pronunciation to be very exotic (different) than what I am used to. Portuguese is more understandable for us Spanish speakers when it is written. Portugal portuguese omits many vowels and some consonants, thus making it harder for us to understand. Brazilian portuguese is a bit easier but still mildly hard. Portuguese is very similar in written form but not phonetically -- it's much closer to Catalan and/or Occitan. Italian spoken by the Italian girl sounded familiar, very recognizable. It almost comes off like a dialect of Spanish -- phonetically. I just didn't like that her voice would trail off towards the end on some sentences but I still understood because the previous consonants/vowels were pronounced. Spanish and Italian are very similar phonetically but so-so close in written form.

Amigurumi is a Japanese word and its means "crocheted stuffed toy". However, I never thought of the possibility to link "amigurumi" with "amigo", that's cute n_n This could be actually useful for me if I have to teach the word amigurumi to my students in Japanese class since we are native Spanish speakers XD XD I have studied Portuguese, but wow, Anna spoke fast, I didn't also catch the "vinte e oito" (she's going to be 28??? I thought she was as most 24!!). I'm surprised how Andrea speaks so slowly, but that's maybe because Costa Rican Spanish is incredibly fast. When I was to Japan for a teachers training program, the Spanish and Argentinian teachers sometimes didn't understand what I said because how fast I talked.

[@evaldograsso3298]

Na história da diversificação das línguas latinas, o espanhol e o português vieram por último. Eram as fronteiras mais distantes do Império Romano a oeste. Por isso, o Português assimilou mais palavras espanholas do que o contrário, e um nativo português (brasileiro) tem mais facilidade em entender o espanhol, do que o contrário. Quanto ao italiano, é mais complicado. O latim se pulverizou em inúmeros dialetos, que só foram unificados no século XIX adotando o idioma da Toscana. Tenho alguma dificuldade em entender a Sofia pelo seu sotaque de Vêneto, mas é bonito o sotaque veneziano. O Português foi a última língua que surgiu no Lazio baseada no Latim (Última flor do Lacio , inculta e bela!).

[@lancasterclan]

Castelhano/Espanhol é galego do oeste. Tanto o castelhano quanto o português são oriundos do Galaico-português. Sendo o português muito mais próximo do galaico-português do que o castelhano. O Português na verdade, é o galaico-português gramaticado, oque nunca ocorreu com o galaico-português. De modo que o português não pegou nada emprestado do castelhano. E sua similaridade advem desse tronco comum o Galaico-Português.

Repetindo então, o português não pegou nada do espanhol, oque existe em comum, e que confere similaridade é provirem de um tronco comum, sendo oportuguês muito mais próximo, ou mesmo dizer, que é o próprio Galaico-português gramáticado.

@@wandson5410 For Spanish speakers, some Northeastern accents would be more understandable.
