Similarities between Spanish/Portuguese and Arabic!

[Sacrificed Ram]

it's funny how I can understand these ancient texts pretty well while I couldn't understand the Maghrebi Arabic dialects today, rofl.

What? This singer is algerian!

What? This singer is algerian!

Exactly, rofl. I love listening to Cheb Khalid and so on, but I couldn't understand most if not all the lyrics of his songs and so on. The funny thing is that Maghrebis understand our dialects quite well, but we couldn't understand theirs which is why they would speak either Lebanese or Palestinian dialects for us to understand them.

The largest Portuguese dictionary available contains 442,000 entries but the number of "sayable and writable" word-forms is estimated at over 2 million. Taking only the dictionary into account, about one thousand words (according to the estimations in the OP video) are of Arabic origin which means roughly 0.2% of the total vocabulary. Not to mention that as stated on the video, the majority of them are not currently in use or have equivalents in Portuguese.

Yeah most are old words that were basically garbaged. Obviously, Portugeuse and Espanol are both Latin Romance Language that belongs to the Indo-european family of languages.




But Arabs, of course, had some impact in the Portuguese and Spanish language in the year 711 when Arabs / Moorish dominated the Iberian peninsula so they had a lot of Arabic lend words. Just not as much as some people may agree with-- also that most of those words aren't used today aside from locations and olive oil... i.e. Algarve (Portuguese), Andalusia (Spanish), aceite (Spanish), azeite (Portuguese), etc etc.

Arabic and Portuguese/Spanish are completely different because of tradition and nothing else like almost all languages that affect each other as nations meet through war, commerce, etc. Just that there is slight exchange as any country will have over the centuries nearby.

I watched one of the videos before, by Langfocus, a youtuber I really like. But, I think that it really proved that there wasn't as much language influence as people thought. Also, what language influence there was also faded with time. (The same can be said about art).

Also, sharing some words does not make the languages similar. For example, Japanese words in English. There are Japanese loanwords in English, like "Typhoon." But the languages are completely different. This is similar to Arabic/Castillian/Portuguese. There are words that are shared because there was a utility for them (for example algodon), but on the whole, the languages are totally different.

The only reason people still make a big deal about this is because of a certain historical event that no one can get past for reasons

[Kamal900]

All things related with gay "marriage" or gay parades and all of this shit was something IMPOSSED TO US by traitor governments. There was zero social demand for this and someday we woke up and 1 politician said that gay "marriage" has been approved. If they had done a referéndum I can tell you that 70-80% of SPaniards would have said: "NO" no gay marriages.

About gay parades. 80% of the people in the Madrid gay parade are foreigners from other Euro countries. And it was something promoted by leftists politicians to make people believe that we are "modern" and "tolerant" or whatever. Then "right" politicians just continue to allow them because they don´t want to lose the votes of many "tolerant" people.

In the end they are impositions against the majority of us. There was zero demand for it. And it is the same with massive inmigration. In 2000 we had zero foreigners. In 2004 we had 4 million of ilegal inmigrants and they started to legalize them, for no reason. So, they were totalitarian impositions against natives. We have never been asked about this. Call it ""democracies"". And most people don´t like gay marriages or gay parades but the issue here is that people don´t want to be shown as ""intolerants"" or ""francoists"", so weak minded people say that they support it. If we had anonymous referéndums most people will say NO. That is why they dont do referéndums because politicians know that they will lose them.

And by the way, to the moro Nassbean or whatever his Nick is: yesterday I saw the video of 2 swedish girls that were raped and beheaded by moroccoans scum in Morocco. For no reason. They were just tourists or wanted to help people in Morocco. But they found moroccoans which are shit 99.999999999% of them. It is imposible that something like that is done in any European country. The lack of empathy that those bastards have make them to be much lower than rats. I would save 1 rat over 99.99999999% of moroccoans. The worst scum on Earth. For many reasons, but things like these are the most graphic about how normal moroccoans are. Those that beheaded the girls were just normal moroccoans (not delinquents), just animal trash that should deserve that all their families are beheaded in front of these 2 bastards, and then torture them and last dismember them and give the trash flesh to feed sharks.

Yeah. I was just trolling Christiano here specifically, rofl.

Yeah. I was just trolling Christiano here specifically, rofl.

You can not troll me, Arab.
Te only thing you can do is sucking the dicks of Americans, telling what they think about this and there. Such troll you are, jojo!

Because members here can be hypocrites, Iberians praise the conquest of the Americas and the genocide of indigenous people
But yet hate the history and colonization of their own country, they have a dislike for your people because of that conquest
BUUUUUUT if Latinos have a dislike against Iberians for the conquest, they get butt hurt smh

they need to learn to embrace that dark past history, just like they tell us to embrace ours
I also don't see the point of them hating your people for conquering their ancestors smh they should be thanking your people for not having the heart to slaughter half their population
and enforce your language, religion, culture and traditions on them, maybe then, they would understand what indigenous people and decolonized Latinos feel about the conquest of the Americas

I guess, only they have a right to hate on their colonizers, and we Latinos cant do that

the difference is that spaniards left a religion, a language, a culture and blood and surnames... while moors left nothing here

[Gallop]

I don't understand absolutely any Arabic. I am familiar and in Spain we listen to music in French, Italian, English or German interpreters singing in English are famous interpreters in Spain where nobody listens to music in Arabic. It's stupid to insist on something we don't even know. The monuments are ok but we deeply rejected that period because they were defeated and we do not feel it ours, the monuments are ours because they are on our soil.

And the feeling of the Spaniard must be respected, not what a subnormal says that he is not even European.

Well don't do it, what's the problem?

And I would like to know the data of the deaths caused by the Spanish conquest of America. With reliable sources.
