Portuguese is an official language of several countries, including Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, and São Tomé and Príncipe. It is also widely spoken in other parts of the world, such as India, Malaysia, and some African nations. The language has its roots in Latin and evolved over time into distinct dialects across these regions. In terms of vocabulary, Portuguese shares many words with Spanish and Italian due to their shared Latin origins, which makes communication between speakers of these languages relatively easy.
