Galician & Portuguese – Are They the Same Language?



Langfocus

In this video I examine Galician and Portuguese to see if they are similar enough to be considered two varieties of the same language. 🚩 Learners of Portuguese, check out PortuguesePod101: https://langfocus.com/portuguesepod.

🚩 For 33 other languages: https://langfocus.com/pod101

Special thanks to Carlos Costa for his Portuguese samples, and Marilú for her Galician samples.
