I congratulate you for the clarification.
Portugal exists since 1143, way before Spain was formed.
Portuguese is the official language of Brazil, Macau (now part of China, since 1999), Angola, Moçambique, Guiné Bissau, São Tomé e Principe and Cabo Verde (Samuel "Edy" Tavares is a native from).
Until the 60s in some parts of India (state of Goa, Damau and Diu cities in state of Gujarat).
By no means it is a dialect of Spain, or a variation (like UK and USA english), while their are a lot of similarities. Even in Spain there are other languagues spoken (Catalan, Basque, Galician, are official, but you can add Guanche. and don't tell Mallorca and Valencia people that they speak Catalan). |
That was easy for me, despite my nickname, I'm Brazilian.
