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 coofficial status in places like East Timor and Macau. Portuguesespeaking 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.

Papiamento is a Portuguesebased Creole language spoken in the Dutch Caribbean. It is the most widely spoken language on the Caribbean ABC islands (Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao), with official status in Aruba and Curaçao. Papiamento is also a recognized language in the Dutch public bodies of SintEustatius and Saba. The language spelled Papiamento in Aruba and Papiamentu in Bonaire and Curaçao, is largely based on colonialera Portuguese and Spanish (including JudaeoPortuguese), and has been influenced considerably by Dutch and Venezuelan Spanish. Due to lexical similarities between Spanish and Portuguese, it is difficult to pinpoint the exact origin of some words.
