ILoveLanguages! | ROMANCE: PORTUGUESE & OCCITAN @ilovelanguages0124 | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 41 minutes ago.
Welcome to my channel! This is Andy from I love languages. Let's learn different languages/dialects together.
Portuguese is a Western Romance language from the Iberian Peninsula and is the official language of several countries, including Brazil, Portugal, Angola, and Mozambique. It also holds co-official status in places like East Timor and Macau. Portuguese-speaking nations are called Lusophone. The language spread globally due to colonial expansion and originated from Vulgar Latin dialects in medieval Galicia and Portugal, retaining some Celtic phonology. With about 300 million speakers, Portuguese is the fifth most spoken native language and the second most spoken Romance language, after Spanish.

Occitan is a Romance language spoken in Southern France, Monaco, Italy’s Occitan Valleys, and Spain's Val d'Aran in Catalonia, often collectively called Occitania. Some consider Catalan a part of Occitan due to its close relationship with certain dialects like Gascon, though Catalan was only considered a dialect of Occitan until the 19th century. Occitan lacks a standardized written form and official status in France, where most speakers reside. Its dialects vary significantly, and the language is rapidly declining. UNESCO considers most dialects severely endangered, with only Gascon and Vivaro-Alpine being definitely endangered.
