With all the time I’ve spent in Connecticut, I’ve never heard anyone speak Portuguese.
Oh so it wasn't a typo

@Onetrickpony is your wife's mother tongue Tagalog or one of the hundred other languages spoken there?
I hear it all the time here.

Portuguese sounds like Spanish with Downs Syndrome. And I speak the language for the most part.
Brazilians get so upset with me when I say that.
I am surprised Tagalog beat out Chinese in CA. There are a ton of both but I thought Chinese was the larger population.
I love Wiscansinites and Minnesootans.
I think they're swell.
Wallis looks like what Anderson would look like if he got the jacko disease and went white
My ex wife would complain that Portugal instead of Spain settled Brazil so they have to speak that stupid language.
Portuguese is actually closer to Italian than Spanish. @conor mcgregor nut hugger we were at Mizner once and I heard a couple speaking a horrible sounding eastern Euro language. Ex wife tells me they are actually from “da nort” of Brazil and many Brazilians can’t even understand them. It sounded nothing like Portuguese.

Probably where Bigfoot is from. I'm sure that guy isn't speaking normal Brazilian either

@Never_Rolled this is just lexical (i.e. vocabulary) similarity. It doesn't even count all the similar grammatical features
Notice a lexical distance of less than or equal to 25% between Portuguese and Spanish. Both have a 26-35% lexical distance between themselves and Italian.
All you have to do is look at a map to see why Portuguese and Spanish are closer to each other than either is to Italian. Portugal and Spain share a peninsula and are both a good distance from Italy.
tl;dr - whoever told you that Portuguese is closer to Italian than to Spanish is a retard.
