i think it's a different thing entirely if you've grown up speaking spanish in a country that borders brazil.

So far as I'm aware Spaniards can understand Portuguese, but due to the differences in phonetics, it is indeed harder for them to understand Portuguese speakers rather than the other way around.

To refer back to the Wiki quote (the languages) "are closely related, to the point of having a considerable degree of mutual intelligibility".

Therefore I think it's safe to say (in terms of your original answer to Mostar) that Coates would be able to converse with our Portugeses speaking players in his native language although how well, only he will know.

I am Spanish and I can't understand a word those greasy piri piri puta's say
