What's your favourite romance language and culture Any Forums? Why? For what?
I like Portugal for being a bit more nostalgic and calm that Spanish people. They are honorably eastern european country. Romanians ARE the eastern europeans and it's easy to understand their mindeset, good alcohol. Also they are pretty chill. Polish low culture is strongly inspired by italian one, they are funny, Serie A is ok, and they was commie for a while so they was one of the few countries which had contact with commie Poland. La grande bellezza is my favourite movie. Spain is ok I guess, I like don quixote, they are chill, a bit loud, men act very gay sometimes I like France and Belgium for comics and animation. French cinematography was great. But I have the same problem with them as with Germany and Russia - they are not what they were and what they should be in my opinion. Even french gamedev sucks I like whole Latin America for being wild. I "know" Mexico the best, mostly by american pop-culture. Their accent is funny. Brazil is like Latin Russia which is bad and good.
Isn't Romanian a Slavic-Romance hybrid? They have cases like russian and lots of Slavic words like kurwa and da but at the same time they also have a lot of romance words. If you listen to a Romanian speaking it sounds like russian with some Italian words thrown in.
I love Spain and Italy btw. Will definitely visit next year.

Romanian seems like the English of Romance Languages. It has so many loan words from Polish and other Slavic languages and it's not particularly intelligible and weird to the rest of the group.

Germans. They gave us people like Kant, Neit, a bunch of engineers, and cool cars. Too bad their language is horrendous.

I like Italian culture, food, cities and nature, but I don’t like Italian people. Weird mixture of superiority and inferiority complex. Every time I visit Italy I end up telling myself I’m never going back because I hate having to deal with its people, but I always end up going back

Don't be so tsundere.

I’m not tsundere, Italians just annoy me with small things. I recently hired a car in Italy and had to bring it back at the airport. The parking spot for rented cars was behind a boom barrier, and you needed a ticket for it to open up. I got my ticket, put it in the machine but the barrier didn’t go up. I clicked on the intercom thing and told the lady there that the shit didn’t work. She literally refused to open it, saying you need a ticket. I told her my ticket was slurped up by the machine and it didn’t open. She straight up refused to open. Then another guy answered the intercom after a while, he refused to open the barrier too. Had to call the rental company to tell them these retards wouldn’t open the barrier and he fixed it.
Typical Italian shit.

Not sure yet. I have really only studied Italian and I like that each city/region has it's own history, culture, and dialect, you could spend years about just one of them. But I plan on learning more romance languages in the future.

>Weird mixture of superiority and inferiority complex sounds like Germans towards USA, France, UK and sometimes even Spain I like German lang, find it pretty. Nowadays a bit anglicized in pronunciation I think. But it is not thread about germanic langs and cultures

>What's your favourite romance language Caipira dialect of Portuguese (my own) >and culture Any Forums Caipira (my own)
"romance Irish" was my first thought. Like his "r". But there are stertorous/guttural (?) sounds too. "Khg" or smt like that. Not so many but a few. And I don't speak Portuguese. 4:41 sounds like some messed up african lang
>SEA/amerindian accent Yes, our dialect came from a Portuguese/Tupi creole language that was use as língua franca in São Paulo and adjacent areas from the 16th to the 18th century.

Every romanian word that sounds slavic is actually latin. In reality, we invented those words, and slavs got them from us.
