The volume is too low. :(
Yea, unfortunately...i'm looking for a better registration, but there aren't on YT.
In Sardinia we don't speak a single language, that one is Campidanese, spoken in the southern part of the island.
You could have chosen a video about Logudorese Sardinian, that's the most ancient and more conservative version. :)
A video of Logudorese-Barbaric Sardinian, spoken in the central Sardinia:

In any case I don't see any similarity with Portuguese.
Is this in Logudorese or Campidanese?

That's logudorese.
It's not difficult to distinguish it by Campidanese, because arcticles, accent, pronunciation and many words are different.
In logudorese the plural articles are Sos and Sas (like Los and Las in Spanish), in Campidanese articles are IS, it's full of X pronounced like you use in Catalan and many plural words end with I, while in Logudorese they end with S.
But you can't find easily songs in Campidanese, because singers and poets prefer Logudorese, that's considered not only the northern Sardinian language but also the language of the artists.
These are other two examples of Sardinian-Logudorese songs:

Oh, so Logudorese uses sos/sas. Good way to distinguish them then. Thanks. :thumb001:
In some dialects of Catalan, specially in Mallorca, an s is also used for the articles: es (s'), sa, sos, ses. As far as I remember, only Sardinian and Catalan have articles derived from IPSU, IPSA.
Portuguese when spoken correctly :p
