And we’re back! Series 4 of ALILI launches itself at the ears of language lovers everywhere, and it’s the Portuguese language that’s leading the charge. My guest is Marco Neves, scholar, translator and author, and a devoted champion of Portuguese in all its forms. Our conversation tackles some big topics and ideas. For example, where did Portuguese come from? (Linguistically as well as geographically, that is.) Where has it reached in the world of today? And what is the Lusophone community doing with the language? And how, strange to say, could Portuguese have become ‘Spanish’?
