zambothegreat Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 I know that someone who is Spanish can partially understand someone who is Portuguese, and vice versa. Can you list some things that are similar, if not the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sness Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 The list would be huge! The two languages are very, very alike. See for yourself:[spanish]"Lo otro no existe: tal es la fe racional, la incurable creencia de la razón humana. Identidad = realidad, como si, al fin de cuentas, todo hubiera de ser, absoluta y necesariamente, uno y lo mismo. Pero lo otro no se deja eliminar; subsiste, persiste; es el hueso duro de roer en que la razón se deja los dientes. Abel Martín, con fe poética, no menos humana que la fe racional, creía en lo otro, en “La esencial Heterogeneidad del ser”, como si dijéramos en la incurable otredad que padece lo uno"[Portuguese]"O outro não existe: tal é a fé racional, a incurável crença da razão humana. Identidade = realidade, como se, afinal de contas, tudo tivesse de ser, absoluta e necessariamente, uno e o mesmo. Porém, o outro não se deixa eliminar, subsiste, persiste; é o osso duro de roer em que a razão deixa os dentes. Abel Martín, com fé poética, não menos humana do que a fé racional, acreditava no outro, na "essencial heterogeneidade do ser", como se disséssemos, na incurável outredade que padece o uno"There is a list of differences between both languages on Wikipedia: Comparison of Portuguese and Spanish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
