@therealsoccamaster

The acute accent in Portuguese isn’t just a stress marker like it is in French and Spanish, it’s an indicator of a stressed low/open vowel. That’s why the same mispronunciation occurs in Spain despite the fact that their language has the letter é as well. The words for grandmother and grandfather in Portuguese are avó and avô, so mispronouncing a vowel in some cases can actually change the meaning of the entire word.

Wait, I thought Spanish mainly used accents to put the emphasis on the syllabe? While french é/è o/ô are used to indicate low/open pronunciation (like avô and avó) but zero emphasis because it doesn't exist in french (and e with no accent is pronounced three different ways so let's forget about it). So I'm not sure I understood the comparison between French and Spanish stress markers, it looks like French is working the same way than Portuguese, no?
It’s amazing to me how clear and concise some players are with speaking languages other than their native language. This is literally perfect english
in Italy too we pronunce It well
Portuguese players (and coaches) speaks infinitely better English than Spanish. With 230m native speakers it's hard to argue that it's a such a small and isolated language compared to Spanish.
