Comunque non ve la prendete, era solo uno sfogo.....tanti auguri di Buona Pasqua a tutti!!!
<<However, I'm not sure about what you said about 'Galego'. It's totally true that 'Galego' is REALLY close to Portuguese, but are they as close as Catalan and Occitan are? >>
Portuguese and 'Galego' are two dialects of the same language. The only thing that separates Portuguese from Galician is politics.

Observant, un conseil : apprends le français avant d'exhiber les quelques vocables que tu auras exhumés d'un dico poussiéreux...

dieciséis
diecisiete

veinte
cantar(canto)/(Yo/Io) canto vs Je chante
(Eu/Yo/Io) canto vs Je chante
odrigado/gracias/grazie vs merci
obrigado/gracias/grazie vs merci
Allow me...
<<fils==figli /vs hijo>>
Those are plurals, the Spanish form should be 'hijos'
<<huile==olia /vs aceite>>
The Italian for 'aceite' is 'olio' not 'olia'
<<olive==oliva /vs aceituna>>
In Spanish there's also 'oliva' for the fruit, and 'olivo' for the tree.
<<parler==parlare /vs hablar>>
Not much to say here, although in Spanish we also have 'parlotear', which is used in hilarious contexts. However, 'hablar' is closer to Portuguese 'falar' anyway.
<<vous == voi vs usted>>
'Usted' is not the equivalent for 'vous' in French and 'voi' in Italian. And they aren't used in the same way either. the Spanish equivalent for 'vous' and 'voi' is 'vos' which was used exactly as the French 'vous' but in the 18th or 19th century, not nowadays. Although they still use it in many Spanish-speaking countries, but in a different way.
et /e/== e /e/ vs y /i/
In Spanish there's 'y' but there's also 'e' which you use when the word that follows starts with 'i'. E.g.: "España y Francia", "Italia y España" but "España e Italia" "Francia e Italia".
Kind regards
Pete from Peru
I thought the equivalent in Spanish to the Italian "voi" was "vosotros" (Spain) or "ustedes" (Latin America)? Perhaps I am wrong.
By the way, water is Italian is "acqua" and the language has both "blu" and "azzurro". "Office" is "ufficio". That said, these are only a few comments, I haven't read all of the above. This discussion is endless.
It should be
gracias/grazie vs merci vs obrigado
regalo vs cadeau vs presente
bailar/ballare vs danser/dançar
silla/sedia vs chaise/cadeira
una vs une vs uma
cena vs souper vs seia
Pete, you must have forgotten that the equivalent of vosotros in French is vous-autres which is still used in Lousiana and to a lesser extent in Canada.
Voialtri is used to be common in Italian/Tuscan a few centuries ago but it is now archaic.
observant, you could give us other exemples than always the same, no ?
Are you unable to find others ?
once again you seems not knowing french...
gracias/grazie vs merci vs obrigado - Grâce
regalo vs cadeau vs presente - Regaler
bailar/ballare vs danser/dançar - ballet, ballerines, etc
silla/sedia vs chaise/cadeira - Silla/sedia= siège
cena vs souper vs seia - souper is not the current word: diner is better, and cène exists also.
