Portuguese vs. Spanish - Joanna Rants

Brazil and the rest of Latin America have a language barrier. In this episode Joanna tries to learn Portuguese to bridge that gap!

@Juliana Silva The secret for peaking Spanish is you have to have all muscles in your mouth strung like ready to sprint. Portuguese is spoken with a relaxed mouth, kind of like you went to the dentist and got a shot of anesthesia. Spanish requires everything to sound like you're hammering things, like your mouth is a wooden springboard. Rigid and dry. Kind of like German. Of course I'm Chilean so I don't follow this rule, but it's what I do when I want to get myself understood by foreigners despite my Chilean accent.

[@leoskilldivision6504]

Gênero feminino de Barato é Barata, porém, Barato sozinho, significa uma coisa, Barata sozinha, significa outra . ''. Gênero, por sua vez, representa as flexões que se atribuem às classes de PALAVRAS.'' www.portugues.com.br/gramatica/genero-das-palavras.html Resumindo. Barata é a flexão feminina da palavra Barato, que não exige flexão quando falada sozinha, como é uma alteração do gênero da palavra em essência, não podemos pegar o significado dela e atribuir para seu significado normal, sem explicar a norma gramatical e suas aplicações. Então sim, quando alguém fala a palavra Barata sozinha, ela se remete ao inseto. É claro que uma palavra pode significar muitas coisas, mas é porque elas interagem com as regras e aplicações em frases.

I don't know exactly the reason why for that, i think it's because Quebec is a province and not a country, which canada's majority is anglophone, so it can't be considered the whole canada as latin, but anyway, quebec is in latin america because it can't be part of anglo-saxon america. I also think the're not usually called latin because of the life style which is a little bit different, but basically they are it, since they speak a language from latin.

[@SuperGirlLucy]

As a native Spanish speak, I actually find Portuguese from Portugal easier to understand because I feel their accent is "softer" in a way, I feel they pronounce "better" (which makes sense since they're in the peninsula, therefore close to Spain), like they pronounce their letters more. As for Brazil, I find their accent much more difficult to understand, you hear those "chis" (like igualmente) Joana was talking about and those Ls sounding like Us, it's crazy...

[@davilopes5925]

@@SuperGirlLucy honestly it's a bit odd for you to say such thing as Portuguese people tend to pronounce the vowels with the back of their mouths, a bit more throaty, hence the common interpretation (by foreigners) that portuguese PT sounds a bit slavic. Portuguese BR is a lot (and I mean A LOT) heavier when it comes to emphasising the vowels, specially in the northern regions (where I come from). Btw the closest you can actually get to a Spanish cadence / rhythm / accent in Brazil is in the south, where they roll the R letter a lot more, like a Spanish speaker does.

Hi, Joanna! Spanish is my second language. When I began studying Portuguese in 2016, it was a big challenge for me. I bought so many books in Portuguese and I bought so many movies with the audio in Portuguese. I live in South Florida and a Brazilian bakery opened close to where I work in 2016. Since then, I have been going there to have conversations with the Brazilian employees of the Brazilian bakery. In 2018, a Brazilian radio station called Nossa Radio, 1400 a.m., aired and I have been listening to it. Today, I can read, write, and listen to Portuguese. Just like the guitar, you have to practice. Speaking 3 languages is not easy, but it is worth it. Hablar tres idiomas no es fácil, pero vale la pena. Falar três línguas não é fácil, mas vale a pena. ☺🎼🎵🎶🎸🌎🌍🌏🇺🇸

I'm from the US currently living in Rio, Spanish is my second language, Portuguese my third, and I couldn't agree more with everything said here!! 😂😂 The two languages are no doubt extremely similar, but I have to be super careful I know what I'm saying and not just relying on my Spanish when I speak Portuguese...for example I've made the awkward mistake of using "molestar" (Spanish: to annoy, Portuguese: to MOLEST) instead of "perturbar" !! "Eu não gosto dele, me molesta muito.." whoops 😬 not to mention the plethora of conjunctions in Portuguese..and don't even get me started on the subjunctive!

Ok here I go... Can't say how much I thank you for this video!!! I'm from Venezuela and I've been living in Brazil for 3 years, already know how to pronounce every vowel with the (~) on top (it took me a while). I still don't know the fucking difference between the sound of Avó and Avô (que es la misma vaina que abuela y abuelo en español, pero aquí lo quisieron complicar puej), also in spanish we don't pronounce the V and B sounds correctly!!! It's basically the same sh*t for us!!! In Portuguese that's is so f*cking important. There are some words that pronounced incorrectly can mean a total different thing, like when you say Casa but you don't make the f*cking "S" sound correctly, you might be saying that you're going for a HUNT.... Seriously WTF!!! (the correct sound of that S in CASA, is pretty much like the sound of a f*cking mosquito close to your ear). Ya vi que venden cucas en el mercado y casi me meo de la risa, y que la que cantaba aquella Música "ilari-lari-je, jo jo-jo-jo" era la famosa XUXA, solo que nunca nos los dijeron y yo juraba que esa verga era Nubeluz. Vaso es donde pones las plantas, copo es vaso, copa (donde bebes vino) se dice "taça", y a la taza de nosotros pa' beber café aquí le dicen Xícara, ahh y nunca digas que estás llena de picaduras (porque te jodieron los mosquitos), ni llames a la gente vagabunda por jodedera.

I mean, probably you've been learning the paulista brazilian portuguese, but dude, this country is so big there are words we ourselves don't even know, understand or get from other parts, and a hell lot more accents (like, the vocal accents, not the signs) which may sometimes get in the middle of understanding some shit.

Maybe, you could focus in the design of the acents. In "avó", pronouce the "o" very open, cause the "o" is free from his chains, he's flying away, with the acent. In "avô", the poor "o" is being supressed by the evil "

We've been together for 4 years now but when we first met OMG! translator app for everything! I learned Portuguese by asking André literally everything and jotting it down on a notepad . My most used phrase was "Como se fala?" meaning "How do you say?" as I pointed to an object. Here's what still kills me about Portuguese vrs Spanish, GENDER. Some examples like, "arbol" is feminine in Portuguese, "a árvore" . "Mensaje" is "a mensagem", " el Lente" is "a lente", " el color" is " a cor" - - - só on and so forth! I swear Im always messing up cuz it's all the contrary!

Is your last name your maiden name or your husband's last name? I ask because Brazilians would most likely find it funny, no disrespect.

nós temos algumas diferenças referentes a Gêneros dos substantivos, mas pelo menos sabemos que eles existem. imagino que pra quem fala só inglês seja mais complicado, porque pra eles não existem os gêneros.

Nat Porras i'm sorry but your last name means literally jizz in plural

Joanna, yo soy de Galicia, una region en el noroeste de España. El caso es que galicia está justo al norte de Portugal y tenemos una lengua llamada gallego que suena como una mezcla de español y portugués. El gallego y el portugués nacieron ambas de la misma lengua, el gallego-portugues, y fueron evolucionando de formas separadas dando lugar a dos lenguas que si bien se parecen muchisimo (algunos expertos incluso las consideran como dos dialectos de una misma lengua) tienen sus diferencias. Podrias dedicar algún video a hablar del tema.

[@philippholschervanderhilto7477]

Ramon Vilaverde Fernández I already know about galician have been a long time, but then, I met a Galician woman and I was amazed how close are Galician and Portuguese, sounds like Portuguese with Spanish accent

Galego é uma língua-irmã maravilhosa!!

[@caioalmeida7452]

Aprendi galego na escola aqui no Brasil, e toda vez que escrevo galego (RAG) me sinto muito sexy quando troco o G pelo X, como em "imaxina", "xoven" e "xunta". Considero que o português e o galego são dialetos da mesma língua, porém gosto de cada característica que faz do galego diferente, uma versão um pouco mais castelhanizada do nosso português ❤.

Never related to a video more in my life. Brazilian and came to live in the US when I was six - only to learn hella Spanish in immigrant communities and have everyone be like 😲 at my Portuguese.

[@ablurida]

As a French/Argentine who lived in Brazil as a child, this was very entertaining to watch. I did not realise how much French helped to learn Portuguese, to understand the notion of 2 letters = 1 sound. Portuguese from Portugal might be easier to understand for Joanna because the Rs and Ts are close to Spanish, but it's not as sexy imho. Best accent is Santa Catarina, 'it's like buttah'.

[@Shornaal13]

Maybe that's why BR_PT comes easy to me, since I'm FR and know ES already. Didn't think of looking at it from this angle. :)

[@david_contente]

Portuguese and French have Celtic roots, that's why they sound similar.

[@hokonotpotlol9010]

They are romance languages so they are pretty similar

I was mind fuck when i learned that portuguese is more close to french, and italian to spanish, since we paraguayans and brasilians are neighbors, we usually have no problems understanding most of it
