I would say Spanish is more beneficial. More speakers in the USA and more Spanish speaking countries around the world. For the most part, Brazilian Portuguese is only helpful in Brazil.
learning both and my native language is English, and definitely have to agree with you that Spanish is easier phonetically for sure, still the sound of the Portuguese language is beautiful 😊
Coming from someone who's native English & was self taught Spanish... I would say to learn PORTUGUESE first. They're both good languages to learn but I'd recommend Port before Spanish. It'll make it easier in the long run for learning Spanish and when you begin learning Spanish your foundation will be so much more boulder than learning Spanish into Portuguese. I speak to my Brazil friends in Spanish and they speak to me in Port. They understand a grand majority of what I say but I only understand about 50-60% of what they say with a generalized idea. None the less, most of us also speak English as a first or second language so we switch to that too when needed. Either way, learning Spanish or Portuguese will open big opportunities and you will always find someone who speaks either of the two, French, German or Mandarin Chinese if you live in the US. :-)
As a non-native Spanish speaker. Reading Portuguese is easier than understand them speaking. Brazilan Portuguese is easier though. They do seem to speak more clearly in my ears.
But in Portugal the majority of people (at least in big cities) above 60 speak English and in Brazil just a little amount of people speak it.
I speak Spanish, but I find it very different to understand Portuguese
Exactly......I speak Portuguese...I only understand Spanish when it is written
Someone told me to learn Portuguese and Spanish will be very easy
I agree. I'm a portuguese speaker, and It's easier to understand Spanish.
@@mariac6280 and i prefer Portuguese💘
I really want to learn Portuguese so baaad to visit Brazil !
I had to make a choice, because I'm retired, and I don't have time to learn both. I hesitated a little, but two things made me choose Spanish. I'm better at playing Cuban music than Brazilian music. I feel at home in afro-cuban music while I always feel I'm trying to play samba. I rarely heard a European or estadounidense drummer playing correctly Brazilian music. The second reason is : Spanish is spoken in 30 countries. That also means more books, more movies, more styles of music.
Tagalog is my native, had a degree in English and am B1 in Spanish. I started studying Portuegese, why was this video just now 🤭
I learned Portuguese before Spanish, and while my Portuguese is far stronger than my Spanish at the moment, I'm able to at least hold a conversation in Spanish and I can basically understand everything I hear (barring slang).
Muchas gracias! aprendí mucho
Un montón de gracias 😍
Great video!
thank you. great video
Very informative and accurate video
If you learn portuguese you understand spanish too, but if you learn spanish you don't understand portuguese.
Love your make up in this video girl, lip + eyeshadow combo 👌🏾
Spanish is more simple and the pronunciation is more similar to the spelling so I think Spanish is the better language
Learned a lot. I want to learn both at same time. Also that top is cute!
i speak english and spanish so i want to learn portuguese my new language
Peace. I speak Brazilian Portuguese fluently and have been wanting to learn Spanish. It's been so difficult to find any resources that go from PT to ES, as you said, and it gets boring going through the introductory material for Spanish, which feels like so much time wasted on overlap, as it's basically patronizingly obvious to people fluent in PT. I'm interested now to hear about the bootcamp that you provide and will look into the service. Are these just bootcamps to learn ES or PT from scratch? Or, do you have PT -> ES bootcamps?
Hey there! I’m planning to travel to Portugal this summer, how should I start to learn Portuguese for my upcoming trip?
i am intermediate to advanced in Spanish and just beginning Portuguese...should i focus on completing Spanish first then learn Portuguese or is it a good idea to learn both together even though i am at different levels ?
ok this is my channel my mother tongue is spanish but i want have a good level of english and portuguese.
The biggest difficulty is portiguese is a way less commun language .spanish has a unlimited amount of material to practice with in online and in person courses podcasts and other materals from beginner to advanced .thst is not the case with portuguese
Portuguese has actually also a lot of resources due to the fact that Brazil has a pretty big media and especially social media presence it is very easy to find Brazilian Portuguese resources. Even here on CZcams. There are just as many resources to learn Portuguese. In fact more and more people are learning it. If you need resources, I can provide you with you plenty.
That woud be cool
@@kevinjoseph2650 Just check out the description box of some of my older videos.I always link books and more resources.
Heheheheheh....pão....she is well aware if the wrong pronciation 😅😂
I might learn turskidh and Portuguese at once.
I’m going to Brazil very soon! being a translator or any other job as polyglot is well paid in Brazil??
You might be an English teacher. I wonder if I could work as a translator abroad as well. Most part of English teachers here are Brazilian, it would be better if they were from outside. Idk I just think my English teacher is not good because I learned much more at home than she taught me.
Que rico mirarte ❤️
I need to learn both, which one should I start with first?
Spanish is easier to start with.
Sua pronúncia é boa! Muito pouco sotaque!😊
Hey your lingo travels link isn’t working
Oh sorry and Thanks foe letting me know. It’s working now!
as a korean, spanish language sounds like korean language except rr
Puedes decirme más porque eso es interesante para mi. Mi idioma segunda es español y mi primera es inglés
Which country are you from?
Germany
@@TheUrbanEveSo you speak at least 4 languages? 😮
Wow, you’re a Superwoman, love it 🥰
Portuguese and Spanish is one thing.
It really cant be said that someone speaks two languages in reference to Spanish and portuguese
Well done. Wish you all the best, but I watched your other video and your Twi needs improvement.
Thank you very much for this! I really like your videos but I feel that you're a bit oversimpflying learning Portuguese after already knowing Spanish. I learned Portuguese after Spanish and I still think that one has to study Portuguese for some time before being able to speak it fluently. You can't always rely on your knowledge of Spanish because many times the words sound the same but mean a different thing in both languages. It's true that grammair is similar but one still has to go through it because there are more irregular verbs in Portuguese and some verb tenses are formed differently and not used in the same way as in Spanish. If you don't study grammar and check up vocabulary you end up with some kind of Portuñol which is actually the case for many people who claim to be able speak Portuguese.
Thank you! Yes, they are two separate languages so you obviously still have to study Portuguese if you want to become fluent. I didn’t say otherwise. I just said that it helps a lot speaking Spanish. I teach both languages, and I always teach those students who learn both languages about methods on how not to end up speaking Portuñol. I‘ve been there myself, so I know it can be an obstacle when you are learning both languages. As for the grammar, actually all the most important and used verb tenses are used the exact same way in both languages. I never really studied Portuguese grammar because I thoroughly studied Spanish grammar, yet I became perfectly fluent in Portuguese and I‘ve seen many people like that. Spanish vs. Portuguese native speakers who have learned the other language just by practicing their speaking. The same goes with a lot of Italian-speakers who can perfectly learn Spanish in a couple of months and vice versa. Grammar is important but definitely not everything about a language if you focus too much on it. Many people study grammar in and out and still can’t speak. I see it with the vast majority of language students and learners.
100! on the part about Portunhol. lol
Any class on WhatsApp? For those who want to learn Spanish or English! I’m planning to learn both😊
Portuguese is the superior language 🇧🇷.
Not even in your dreams is it going to be superior and for many reasons.
Lol
You were able to understand _spoken_ Portuguese after having only learned Spanish? Damn!... Most native Spanish speakers I've ever known cannot understand spoken Portuguese, and still some have some difficulty reading it.
Yes, I could read it and understand most of the spoken Portuguese. Of course not all of it. I used to speak with Brazilian friends in Portuñol. They'd speak Portuguese and I would reply in Spanish. That was before I started studying Portuguese.
I think it is easier to Brazilians to understand Spanish. I've never studied, but I understand a lot of videos in Spanish 😎
@@danieljunio8463 Yes! Plus Spanish is ubiquitous. It’s easier to pick up words and hear them spoken by even Americans joking around who do not even speak Spanish. And in Brazil, there are more Spanish language stations you can probably pick up on cable than Portuguese language in Spanish-speaking Latin America, I imagine - though I’ve not been in Brazil in many yearsz
Honestly, I will never tolerate the Brazilian flag representing the language of Portuguese...
She just needs to say Brazilian Portuguese, otherwise she must use the Mexico flag for Spanish as there are more mexican people speaking Spanish than Spanish people.
@@bilie9117 but it derived from Spain no? you don’t use the American flag for english as the first people who forced the natives out of America were British
@bilie9117 I agree. It doesn't make much sense for her to use Spain's flag to represent the Spanish language, yet not use Portugal's flag to represent the Portuguese language. I'd be curious to know her reasoning for that.
@@Forbestravels that’s what I’m saying… She used the Brazilian flag 🇧🇷 for Portuguese (Portugal 🇵🇹)
Spanish is easier. So start with the hardest first hahaha 🤣
Be really careful to pronounce "Pão" with nasal sound 😂
If you’re going to use that flag, then say it’s Brazilian Portuguese… Otherwise Portuguese-Portugal… Thanks
Did you watch the video and listen to what I said?! Do ao and come back. I always specify that it’s obviously Brazilian Portuguese I’m talking about. I know what I’m doing. Thanks!
@@TheUrbanEve fixe the title, fix that shit, thanks.
But you don't talk Portuguese🇵🇹🇵🇹 you talk Brazilian
Brazilian is better 😂
@@randompost4180 you don't know what you're talking about Portugal for life 🇵🇹🇵🇹
Why are European languages considered romantic languages and intelligent languages? And other languages from around the world is considered primitive and stupid?
All European languages are honestly are stolen from our people and switched around. So let them think whatever 😂
You lost me with the Brazilian flag. It’s OK to use a Brazilian flag to indicate Portuguese-But not if you’re gonna use Spain’s flag to represent Spanish.
Oh wow, you’re gonna lecture me on that?! Tell that all language apps and schools. Everyone wants to chime in without having knowledge of linguistics and languages.
@@TheUrbanEve -My comment has nothing to do with your knowledge of languages or linguistics. It’s about showing even respect to the countries from which the respective languages were born.
