Spanish Speaker Romance Language Challenge: European Portuguese, Romanian and Chavacano
As requested by our viewers, we are exploring the Portugal Portuguese vs. Brazilian Portuguese and see which one I do better at. PS-Didn't do too well with Brazilian Portuguese. I will also look at Romanian, the forgotten Romance language and see how similar it is to Spanish. Is Romanian a Slavic language or Romance language, I wonder after listening to it. Finally I will look at the Zamboangeño variety of Chavacano (or Chabacano). This is a Creole Spanish from the Philippines. The goal is to challnge myself to try to understand these Romance languages.
