Brazilian Portugese vs Mexican Spanish

Ricardo Araújo Pereira (Portugal) In Jo Soares (Brasil) show.

The videos I posted are an explanation of what I said. Within Northeast Brazil itself there is a lot of variation, and so in other regions of Brazil. It may not be the best Portuguese, but they speak much more correctly than your average person from Florianópolis, which by the way has one of the ugliest Brazilian accents IMO.

Btw, this thing about Maranhão speaking the best portuguese is pure bullshit. It's myth.

I hope you can read portuguese, Mineiro.

No livro “Preconceito Lingüístico”*, o autor desmistifica no mito 5, o fato de que o Maranhão é o lugar onde melhor se fala o português. Seus argumentos giram em torno de pesquisas sociolingüísticas que afirmam o fato do melhor falar não depender da região geográfica. Como ele mesmo cita no livro :

“Toda variedade lingüística atende às necessidades da comunidade de seres humanos que a empregam. Quando deixar de atender, ela inevitavelmente sofrerá transformações para se adequar às novas necessidades. Toda variedade lingüística é também resultado de um processo histórico próprio, com suas vicissitudes e peripécias particulares”.

Bagno cita também um exemplo de uma entrevista onde o professor Pasquale Cipro Neto diz que realmente o português do Maranhão não é o melhor falado, e sim, que o carioca é o cidadão que melhor fala português. O autor usa essa ilustração da entrevista de Pasquale, para reforçar sua idéia de que não há local onde se fale o melhor ou o pior português, e sim que isso depende da posição social que o brasileiro possui diante da norma culta do português.

“…as pessoas das classes cultas de qualquer lugar dominam melhor a norma culta do que as pessoas das classes não cultas de qualquer lugar..”

My Portuguese is far better than yours. And so is my English and my education. The language spoken in Florianópolis is among the worst, and it definitely sounds the ugliest. Parochial.

Yes, you can believe that your portuguese is far better than mine, just believe because obviously it's a lie. The average Florianopolitano has a better education than half of the people from your state. Do not lecture me on how it sounds the worst because that's just excuse to spread your "thats raceez" agenda, Brazil is too different to be only one. I know you love this land but while it is together, it's a bucket full of shit.
Back to languages, just my proficiency with english (I'm self taught!) is enough to demonstrate that my linguistic skills are superior than yours, for all you do here is write one argument and then proceed to copy-and-paste everywhere, avoiding the necessary work of writing - that can hone your english skills.
Attacking the way my people speak without presenting conclusive arguments is a logical fallacy and you should be ashamed of doing so, for you are that great guy with the great portuguese. You can't even write a simple sentence without sounding like a demented infant.

I'm sorry, but that's the truth. The limited person here is you.

Brazilian Portuguese sounds African influenced, at least the varieties I have heard of it (Minas Gerais, Bahia, etc). The drawn out vowels especially.

Oh please, shut the fuck up. You always try to African-wash Brazil, and treat us as if we were an homogeneous nation from north to south. Listen to me speaking and tell me where you see African influences:

We sound north african due to Berid influences.

Mexican educated spanish is very good and obviously closer to the educated Spanish from Spain, I dont want you to think I say this because I am mexican but the level of our Spànish Is actually excellent.


I cannot talk much about Portuguese from Portugal anad from Brazil because I dont even speak portuguese but I think it mus be something similar to the Spanish Mexican and the Spanish from Spain.


Cheers.
