In this video, we compare some of the similarities between Portuguese (português) and Marathi (मराठी) with João, a Portuguese speaker from Portugal, and Arnika, a Marathi speaker from India. Since we are now conducting our videos online, if you speak a language that has not been featured on our channel and would like to participate in a future video, and/or if you have any suggestions or feedback, please follow and message us on Instagram: @BahadorAlast: https://www.instagram.com/BahadorAlast I had to reupload this video due to some issues with the audio. After looking further into it, for some odd reason when I took the subtitles off, the audio worked out fine. So instead I have listed all the words that were used in this video below. - Plate: prato / परात (parāt) - Ribbon: fita / फीत (feet) - The Marathi term पगार (pagar), meaning salary/pay, comes from the Portuguese word pagar, which means to pay. - Christmas: natal / नाताळ (nātāl) - The Marathi term फालतू (faltoo), comes from the Portuguese falto, which means missing/deficient. - God: deus / देव (dev) - Cabbage: couve / कोबी (kobi) - Auction: leilão / लिलाव (lilaav) - The Marathi term इस्त्री (istri), which means ironing, comes from the Portuguese esticar, which means to stretch. - The Marathi term पसार (pasār), which means something that has passed or the act of getting away, comes from the Portuguese passar. Another word we discussed: मोसंब / मोसंबी (mosamba / mosambi) Marathi is the third largest language in India after Hindi and Bengali, it is an Indo-Aryan language spoken predominantly by Marathi people of Maharashtra, India. It is the official language and co-official language in the Maharashtra and Goa states of Western India, respectively, and is one of the 22 scheduled languages of India. Portuguese is a West Romance language and the official language of Portugal, Brazil, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, Angola, and São Tomé and Príncipe. It also has co-official language status in East Timor, Equatorial Guinea and Macau in China. A cultural presence of Portuguese and Portuguese creole speakers are also found in Goa, Daman and Diu in India; as well in Batticaloa on the east coast of Sri Lanka, the Indonesian island of Flores, in the Malacca state of Malaysia, and the ABC islands in the Caribbean where Papiamento is spoken, while Cape Verdean Creole is the most widely spoken Portuguese-based Creole.
