In the second period of Old Portuguese, in the 15th and 16th centuries, with the <a href="/wiki/Age_of_Discovery" title="Age of Discovery">Portuguese discoveries</a>, the language was taken to many regions of Africa, Asia, and the <a href="/wiki/Americas" title="Americas">Americas</a>.

The Portuguese expanded across South America, across Africa to the Pacific Ocean, taking their language with them. Its spread was helped by mixed marriages between Portuguese and local people and by its association with <a href="/wiki/Catholic_Church" title="Catholic Church">Roman Catholic</a> <a href="/wiki/Missionary" title="Missionary">missionary</a> efforts, which led to the formation of <a href="/wiki/Creole_language" title="Creole language">creole languages</a> such as that called <a href="/wiki/Kristang_language" title="Kristang language">Kristang</a> in many parts of Asia (from the word cristão, "Christian").

Standard European Portuguese is also the preferred standard by the Portuguese-speaking African countries. As such, and despite the fact that its speakers are dispersed around the world, Portuguese has only two dialects used for learning: the European and the Brazilian. Some aspects and sounds found in many dialects of Brazil are exclusive to South America, and cannot be found in Europe. The same occur with the Santomean, Mozambican, Bissau-Guinean, Angolan and Cape Verdean dialects, being exclusive to Africa.

In a few Brazilian states such as <a href="/wiki/Rio_Grande_do_Sul" title="Rio Grande do Sul">Rio Grande do Sul</a>, Pará, among others, você is virtually absent from the spoken language. Riograndense and European Portuguese normally distinguishes formal from informal speech by verbal conjugation. Informal speech employs tu followed by second person verbs, formal language retains the formal você, followed by the third person conjugation. Conjugation of verbs in tu has three different forms in Brazil (verb "to see": tu viste?, in the traditional second person, tu viu?, in the third person, and tu visse?, in the innovative second person), the conjugation used in the Brazilian states of Pará, Santa Catarina and Maranhão being generally traditional second person, the kind that is used in other Portuguese-speaking countries and learned in Brazilian schools. The predominance of Southeastern-based media products has established você as the pronoun of choice for the second person singular in both writing and multimedia communications. However, in the city of Rio de Janeiro, the country's main cultural center, the usage of tu has been expanding ever since the end of the 20th century,<a href="#cite_note-121">[121]</a> being most frequent among youngsters, and a number of studies have also shown an increase in its use in a number of other Brazilian dialects.<a href="#cite_note-122">[122]</a><a href="#cite_note-123">[123]</a>

While those terms are mostly used in the former colonies, many became current in European Portuguese as well.

There are a number of other places in Spain in which the native language of the common people is a descendant of the Galician-Portuguese group, such as <a href="/wiki/La_Alamedilla" title="La Alamedilla">La Alamedilla</a>, <a href="/wiki/Cedillo" title="Cedillo">Cedillo</a> (Cedilho), <a href="/wiki/Herrera_de_Alc%C3%A1ntara" title="Herrera de Alcántara">Herrera de Alcántara</a> (Ferreira d'Alcântara) and <a href="/wiki/Olivenza" title="Olivenza">Olivenza</a> (Olivença), but in these municipalities, what is spoken is actually Portuguese, not disputed as such in the mainstream. The diversity of dialects of the Portuguese language is known since the time of medieval Portuguese-Galician language when it coexisted with the Lusitanian-Mozarabic dialect, spoken in the south of Portugal. The dialectal diversity becomes more evident in the work of <a href="/wiki/Fern%C3%A3o_de_Oliveira" title="Fernão de Oliveira">Fernão d'Oliveira</a>, in the Grammatica da Lingoagem Portuguesa, (1536), where he remarks that the people of Portuguese regions of Beira, Alentejo, Estremadura, and Entre Douro e Minho, all speak differently from each other. Also Contador d'Argote (1725) distinguishes three main varieties of dialects: the local dialects, the dialects of time, and of profession (work jargon). Of local dialects he highlights five main dialects: the dialect of Estremadura, of Entre-Douro e Minho, of Beira, of Algarve and of Trás-os-Montes. He also makes reference to the overseas dialects, the rustic dialects, the poetic dialect and that of prose.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] In the kingdom of Portugal, Ladinho (or Lingoagem Ladinha) was the name given to the pure Portuguese romance language, without any mixture of Aravia or Gerigonça Judenga.<a href="#cite_note-140">[140]</a> While the term língua vulgar was used to name the language before D. Dinis decided to call it "Portuguese language",<a href="#cite_note-141">[141]</a> the erudite version used and known as Galician-Portuguese (the language of the Portuguese court) and all other Portuguese dialects were spoken at the same time. In a historical perspective the Portuguese language was never just one dialect. Just like today there is a standard Portuguese (actually two) among the several dialects of Portuguese, in the past there was Galician-Portuguese as the "standard", coexisting with other dialects.

Knowing the main <a href="/wiki/Inflection" title="Inflection">inflectional</a> paradigms of Portuguese and being acquainted with the orthography of other Western European languages can be helpful.</div></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Portuguese_Language_Orthographic_Agreement_of_1990">Portuguese Language Orthographic Agreement of 1990</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Portuguese_language&action=edit&section=22" title="Edit section: Portuguese Language Orthographic Agreement of 1990">edit</a>]</div> <div class="excerpt-block"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1066933788"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable dablink excerpt-hat selfref">This table is an excerpt from <a href="/wiki/Portuguese_Language_Orthographic_Agreement_of_1990#Changes" title="Portuguese Language Orthographic Agreement of 1990">Portuguese Language Orthographic Agreement of 1990 § Changes</a>.[<a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Portuguese_Language_Orthographic_Agreement_of_1990&action=edit">edit</a>]</div><div class="excerpt"> <table class="wikitable"> <caption>Written varieties </caption> <tbody><tr> <th rowspan="2">Area </th> <th colspan="2">Before 1990 </th> <th rowspan="2">Agreement </th> <th rowspan="2">Translation </th></tr> <tr> <th>Euro-African </th> <th>Brazilian </th></tr> <tr> <th rowspan="4">Different pronunciation </th> <td>anónimo </td> <td>anônimo </td> <td>Both forms remain </td> <td>anonymous </td></tr> <tr> <td>Vénus </td> <td>Vênus </td> <td>Both forms remain </td> <td>Venus </td></tr> <tr> <td>facto </td> <td>fato </td> <td>Both forms remain </td> <td>fact </td></tr> <tr> <td>ideia </td> <td>idéia </td> <td>ideia </td> <td>idea </td></tr> <tr> <th rowspan="4">Silent consonants </th> <td>acção </td> <td>ação </td> <td>ação </td> <td>action </td></tr> <tr> <td>direcção </td> <td>direção </td> <td>direção </td> <td>direction </td></tr> <tr> <td>eléctrico </td> <td>elétrico </td> <td>elétrico </td> <td>electric </td></tr> <tr> <td>óptimo </td> <td>ótimo </td> <td>ótimo </td> <td>optimal </td></tr> <tr> <th rowspan="2">Diacritics </th> <td>pinguim </td> <td>pingüim </td> <td>pinguim </td> <td>penguin </td></tr> <tr> <td>voo </td> <td>vôo </td> <td>voo </td> <td>flight </td></tr> <tr> <th>Non-personal and non-geographical names </th> <td>Janeiro </td> <td>janeiro </td> <td>janeiro </td> <td>January </td></tr></tbody></table></div></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Grammar">Grammar</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Portuguese_language&action=edit&section=23" title="Edit section: Grammar">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Portuguese_grammar" title="Portuguese grammar">Portuguese grammar</a></div> A notable aspect of the grammar of Portuguese is the verb. Morphologically, more verbal inflections from classical Latin have been preserved by Portuguese than by any other major <a href="/wiki/Romance_language" class="mw-redirect" title="Romance language">Romance language</a>. Portuguese and Spanish share very similar grammar, vocabulary and sentence structure. Portuguese also has some grammatical innovations not found in other Romance languages (except Galician and Fala): <ul><li>The <a href="/wiki/Present_perfect" title="Present perfect">present perfect</a> has an iterative sense unique to the Galician-Portuguese language group. It denotes an action or a series of actions that began in the past but expected to occur again in the future. For instance, the sentence Tenho tentado falar contigo would be translated to "I have been trying to talk to you", not "I have tried to talk to you." On the other hand, the correct translation of "Have you heard the latest news?" is not *Tens ouvido as últimas? but Ouviste as últimas? since no repetition is implied.<a href="#cite_note-173">[173]</a></li> <li>Portuguese makes use of the future <a href="/wiki/Subjunctive_mood" title="Subjunctive mood">subjunctive mood</a>, which developed from medieval <a href="/wiki/West_Iberian_languages" title="West Iberian languages">West Iberian Romance</a>. In modern Spanish and Galician, it has almost entirely fallen into disuse. The future subjunctive appears in dependent clauses that denote a condition that must be fulfilled in the future so that the independent clause will occur. English normally employs the present tense under the same circumstances:</li></ul> <dl><dd>Se eu for eleito presidente, mudarei a lei.</dd> <dd>If I am elected president, I will change the law.</dd></dl> <dl><dd>Quando fores mais velho, vais entender.</dd> <dd>When you grow older, you will understand.</dd></dl> <ul><li>The personal <a href="/wiki/Infinitive" title="Infinitive">infinitive</a> can <a href="/wiki/Inflection" title="Inflection">inflect</a> according to its subject in <a href="/wiki/Grammatical_person" title="Grammatical person">person</a> and <a href="/wiki/Grammatical_number" title="Grammatical number">number</a>. It often shows who is expected to perform a certain action. É melhor voltares "It is better [for you] to go back", É melhor voltarmos "It is better [for us] to go back." Perhaps for that reason, infinitive clauses replace subjunctive clauses more often in Portuguese than in other Romance languages.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Sample_text">Sample text</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Portuguese_language&action=edit&section=24" title="Edit section: Sample text">edit</a>]</div> Article 1 of the <a href="/wiki/Universal_Declaration_of_Human_Rights" title="Universal Declaration of Human Rights">Universal Declaration of Human Rights</a> in Portuguese:<a href="#cite_note-174">[174]</a> <dl><dd>Todos os seres humanos nascem livres e iguais em dignidade e em direitos.

This corpus contains some linguistic features that are clearly Celtic and others that in our opinion are not Celtic. The former we shall group, for the moment, under the label northwestern Hispano-Celtic. The latter are the same features found in well-documented contemporary inscriptions in the region occupied by the Lusitanians, and therefore belonging to the variety known as LUSITANIAN, or more broadly as GALLO-LUSITANIAN. As we have already said, we do not consider this variety to belong to the Celtic language family."

O português deriva do latim, porque os romanos dominaram a Península Ibérica e, por muitos séculos, o latim foi ali falado.
