People in spain speak spanish or english?
I always thought they spoke English until i talk to two guys from spain being in my town of good ole south carolina last week, they were in line and they were talking spanish and i asked where they were from, they said Madrid,Spain, so i asked what are you speaking and they said spanish and they also spoke catalan or something weird, i dont know, i thought Mexicans only spoke spanish, so did spain get their spanish from mexico?? Anyways yeah i was confused, is portugal part of spain or in spain also?? And do they speak english or spanish?? They should just learn ENGLISH so we can understand them, I’m a white american and we speak english which is the best anyways so gooo USA!!

Well look at the similarity between words.. SPAiN, SPANish. And alot of countries in Europe speak mostly English nowadays anyway.
Also, Portugal is next to Spain yes but they speak Portuguese. Very similar language but also very different.
what an intelligent question
Ummmm. Troll.
English: England, Britain, and the places where Britain colonized.
Spanish: Spain, and the places that Spain colonized (like Mexico)
French: France, and the places that France colonized.
German: Germany, the Germanic states (Austria and Switzerland, and a few other principalities) and the places that Germany colonized.
See how that works?
wow..did you fall asleep in history class?
What are you seriously 12?
In Europe every country speaks its own language.
The UK and Ireland are the only countries where English is spoken as first language.
Spanish does come from Spain.
When the Mexican territory was first colonised by the Spanish army, they brought there their traditions and culture (which includes language).
Portugal is a standalone country with its own language and government.
Oh dear, did you ever took geography in school? The Spanish language comes from Spain. Mexico, South and Central America along with the Caribbean Islands were conquered by Spain. Except Brazil which was conquered by the Portuguese. No Portugal is not in Spain, and Portuguese and Spanish are similar but two different languages. I suggest you learn more about culture and history; it looks very bad when someone lacks in knowledge.
