    Like a Spaniard trying to speak Portuguese. Certainly not like it originally sounded.

    Here's a better source for the Galician language.

    Some sound exactly like northern Portuguese, the only reason I can distinguish these is because of the vocabulary.

    It sounds like Hispanicized Portuguese to me.

    Sounds Portuguese. Galician should be a varient of Portuguese. Like Brazilian Portuguese, Galician should be called Galician Portuguese.

    I'm sorry, but that's pretty stupid. If anything it should be the other way around.
