Everything is relative from your mother tongue. You could say that Spanish is easy for you if you speak Portuguese but it might be not so easy for English speakers. Gaelic is such a small language that is really worth learning just so you can say you speak a rare language. GO FOR IT!!

HEY LINGUIST, PORTUGUESE IS ALIVE AND WELL IN GOA! I have friends who speak it on a daily basis at home. The practice has reduced greatly in recent times. Old timers who were educated before 1961 had it as a subject in school.

I used to think the same when I was very young, you never know when an information is going to come in english or español or francais or portuguese, you never know. So don´t be afraid of learning more stuff in your life!!

See the links below!\n\nFor actual books, heres some info on that too, just in case. \n\nYou could try 'Portuguese in 10 minutes a day' which is available in major bookstores in the language section. Its $15-20 and will start you off with a good vocab and basic understanding of the language. \n\nMy personal favorite is the Living Languages series, as I find it the most comprehensive and well layed out. That can be found at major bookstores too as well as amazon.com.

Currently, I believe that Yahoo! Answers is only available in English, but it is in the testing phase. I'd assume that they'll offer it in multiple languages by the time they work out all of the bugs and offically release it.\n\nYour English is very good, for a non-native speaker. My Spanish is nowhere near as understandable. :)

English, Spanish, French, German, Yiddish, Italian, some Hebrew (I'm a bit rusty), some Portuguese, a bit of Russian, a bit of Polish, ASL (American Sign Language), enough Tagalog to get by, assorted phrases in Gha, Ibo, Hindi and Urdu.\n\nI can also read Latin (High, Church and some Vulgate), Helenic Greek (slowly and not well), & Middle English.\n\nI guess I need a life!  :-)

Along with Spanish, Portuguese is one of the top ten most spoken languages in the world.  French is at the end of the list with Portuguese at number eight.\n\nYes, portuguese is an incredible language.  If you are a native English speaker with knowledge of Spanish, then you are fine tuned for picking up Portuguese and swallowing it whole!!!\n\nI love portuguese, there are various portuguese communities in the US (New Jersey for example), and yes Brazil is South America's largest and most economically promising country.  They are projected to be increasing for awhile.\n\nBrazilians are such incredibly warm people, you'll have a great time learning Portuguese\n\nIn high school there are always Brazilian exchange students.  the poor brazilians would love to come to US, but it is such a long way.  there certainly won't be an influx of Brazilians comparable to the mexican influx, but still, if you like travel and languages and think you might find yourself in south america or africa then portuguese is the way to go.

English - Mother Tongue\nPortuguese - Second language (fluent - taught myself)\nSpanish - Third language (semi fluent - taught myself)\n\nItalian - Fourth Language (I'm strong in reading, although writing, listening and speaking need help - 6 month class and self study) \n\nI don't see myself learning any more than this, although I know some basics of French, Catalan and Russian in decending order.\n\nPortuguese will always be my favorite though and will always be the sweetest sounding.

Learn the language.  This is a repeat question.
