There’s a lot of similarities between Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish. Most Portuguese speaking people can understand basic Spanish but it’s harder for Spanish speaking people to understand Portuguese.
At least that’s what my wife tells me as a Spanish native ~150 days into learning Portuguese.
portguese brazillian has a ridiculous number of diphtongs? havr you seen english? it could be my bias as a native speaker but I don’t really see many diphtongs in brazillian portuguese
IMO (formal) American Portuguese and Spanish are pretty close to mutually intelligible, especially in writing. There’s a surprisingly consistent “system” for converting words between them and once you notice it, it’s pretty easy to tell what a sentence should be in the other language, if it’s even spelled differently in the first place. The grammar is also very similar. The biggest difference that gets me is how Portuguese tends to shift past tense conjugations further into the past vs Spanish.

Because Portuguese has many more vowels than Spanish and there are a lot of false friends between the two.
To me, it sounds like Brazilian Portuguese (dunno about European Portuguese) has a ridiculous number of diphthongs.

I’m just curious, do you speak Portuguese or Spanish?
Português, filho da puta, dizes isso?
Caralho, coitado do cara.
Vê-se logo que é um carioca e nao um tuga, para tar a usar “cara”. Cara é a gasolina
Não precisa me ofender não, brasileiro sim, carioca… Deus me livre.
