Portuguese (Portugal) in the United States
Who speaks Portuguese (Portugal), and where they turn up.
European Portuguese (português de Portugal) is spoken in Portugal and across Portuguese-speaking Africa (PALOP). It is phonologically and lexically distinct from Brazilian Portuguese and often unintelligible on first contact for Brazilians.
Massachusetts (Fall River, New Bedford, Taunton), Rhode Island, and New Jersey have multi-generational Portuguese communities, largely from the Azores and mainland Portugal.
