Portuguese Course
A romantic language
Portuguese is like the talented younger brother of Spanish, which is often ignored by the world when today, its influence and usefulness is quite broad. In addition to Brazil and Portugal, several countries including Mozambique and Angola have adopted it as their official language. It is estimated that 260 million people in the world speak Portuguese. It is perhaps the most spoken language in the southern hemisphere and the sixth most spoken language in the world.
As a romantic language, Portuguese developed from Latin in its first form known as Old Portuguese. Cervantes once said that Portuguese was “the sweet and gracious language” and many other prominent literary figures have also praised the language for its “sweet” characteristics. Brazil even has a Portuguese Language Museum in the capital of São Paulo, the first language museum in the world.
