Tagalog vs Indonesian vs Spanish vs Portuguese l Can They Understand Each other?

The English speaking girl: 🙂

the fact that Spain and Portugal are neigbors, so as the Philippines and Indonesia, is the reason why they are similar in words...

Miguel is such a great addition to this channel

Just a few clarifications for Filipino: flag - We have three words for flag: bandera, bandila, watawat. table - We commonly use 'lamesa' but also 'mesa'. moon/month - In Tagalog (central Luzon), we say 'buwan'; but in the Visayan language, they say 'bulan' (same as in Bahasa Indonesian). tree/full - puno is tree; punó is full (same spelling but different accented vowels; thus, different pronunciation) tomorrow/to oepn - búkas is tomorrow; bukás is to open (same spelling, different accented vowels/different pronunciation) in Tagalog; In Visayan language, to open is 'abri' (similar to the Spanish 'abrir') size - To refer to size, we say 'laki' (used as an adjective, laki can become 'malaki' which means big); have grown in - 'laki' can also be used as a shortened form of 'lumaki' (have grown), e.g. 'laki sa hirap' means have grown in poverty. While Filipino may be based mainly in Tagalog, but it encompass thousands of loan words from Spanish, English, Chinese, and Arabic.

The portugal guy is really funny, i like him, Andrea is always great, i've been wating for a comparasion among the Philippines with Portugal and Spain

I'm so happy for this, thank you for showing European Portuguese more lately! Miguel is so nice!

If you go to Manado, Indonesia, their Bahasa Indonesia is loaded with Portuguese vocab, unlike Java or Jakarta, which has more Dutch loanwords

11:42 Portuguese guy: "I was expecting more influence from the Dutch". Good point. You just forgot one crucial aspect: the Dutch had very little contact with the peoples they colonised. (Why do you think "Apartheid" was invented by the descendent of Dutch settlers?) In the so-called "Age of Discovery", everybody was motivated by profit, of course, but specially the Dutch — for them, everything that mattered was profit, there was little to no effort of integration, assimilation or cultural exchange. For that reason, in Curaçao (a Dutch island to this day), the language that evolved from the contact between black slaves and white free men was not a Dutch creole language, but a Portuguese creole language called "Papiamento" — because the Dutch refused to interact with their own slaves and used Portuguese Jews (that had escaped to Holland to escape religious prosecution by the Portuguese Inquisition) as intermediaries.

I am Brazilian. And I am happy for Portugal.👏👏👏 🇧🇷❤🇵🇹

Finally Portugal being represented. 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹

I think someone from Macau ( whose language also has portuguese ) would be a good addition for a video

I'm Spanish speaker and I'm in shock about all these similarities. I knew Spanish and Portuguese are extremely similar in write but with a totally different phonetic. But Tagalog and Indonesian have many words with the same roots!

I would like to see more Portuguese from Portugal

Tagalog and Indonesian are ofc more similar bc they’re apart of the Austronesian language family.

I want somebody that will look at me like Spanish girl looks at Portuguese guy 😭

The English speaker was like... omg!!! what am I doing here? hshsshs.

I like this colonizer and colonized episode. 😆

This fellow countryman is very suave with the ladies.

Como Brasileiro fico feliz de ver a língua portuguesa sendo muito bem representada independente de qualquer país pode ser brasileiro, português,cabo verdiano 👍

finally a Portuguese!!
