    He dislikes the language, and the first thing he said was I have no issue with the people, he prefers Portuguese the language.


    That is just a preference

    I, your father, declare Latin the one true language with Spanish and English being mere bastard children of the great father Latin.

    Well actually of the romance languages, Romanian is the closest to latin in grammer.


    And English is actually a Germanic language.

    Spanish has a simpler phonetic than Portuguese: only 5 vowels and no nasals.

    English borrows many words from Latin as well as Welsh, and other conquerors of Britain. Hence why swine and pig are for the same animal. Etymology of words is very interesting.

    Yes but if I heard an unknown word in Spanish in 99.9% of the cases I know how to write it correctly. In English not so much.
    Different languages have different strengths.
    By the way Spanish and Galician speaker here.

    Spanish (Spain and Mexico variety) and Portuguese can converse verbally with somewhat to no mistranslation. Due to the common base of Latin.

    I somehow compeltely missed this thread but whatever.
    All of his works have similar pacing and character development in my experience. Steelheart/Firefight are YA, so you shouldn't expect a rigorous adult tone going in.

    On languages: English is a terrible language. Just very bad. It's my first language and I feel completely qualified to say it. If it weren't for America/Britain there's no way it would the dominant world language, just picking from a perspective of an easy to learn and utile language.
    Spanish is far better from an ease of learning/use, flow, and beautiful writing.

    Finally @anhrefn if Parth never hooked you up, send me a PM and I can help you
