Italian and Spanish are somewhat similar. Though not as similar as Spanish and Portuguese. I know Mexican and Brazilian people all over where I live that can communicate with each other in their own language and they're close enough to understand each other. I'm not sure if that's the case with Italian, though.
I can comprehend spanish (when spoken slowly), though Portuguese might as well be Arab to me
I'm decently fluent in Spanish and Portuguese might as well be Arabic to me. The pronunciation is wildly different. Which is crazy because I can actually understand written Portuguese pretty well. Then it's like, "Wait...how did you get those sounds from those words??"
