Portuguese is both the national language of Portugal and Brazil. In Portugal it is spoken by about 10 million people and in Brazil by almost the entire country of more than 180 million people. Portuguese is also spoken in the countries of Angola, Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde and Sao Tome and Principe. It is a Romance language closely related yet different to Spanish. It is softer and less emphatic than Spanish with great variety of vowel sounds and it contains a number of nasal sounds that do not exist in Spanish.
