French
The friendly Quebecois are nothing like the ferocious nationalists portrayed in the press and are happy to help if you?re trying to speak French. The accent definitely differs from European French, but the grammar and structure will work just as well in Toulouse as Tremblant
Spanish
(Chile)
The Chileans consider their Spanish to be pretty pure mind you, so do the Peruvians, Colombians and Ecuadoreans and it’s certainly one of the clearer forms of Latin American Spanish. For most people, it’s easy to learn and pronounce and now occupies number four on the world roster of most-spoken languages (after Chinese, English and Hindi).
Portuguese
(Brazil)
Brazilian Portuguese is very different to European Portuguese; the language was grammatically simplified some years ago and the musical intonation can sound quite nasal, for example in Rio. It sounds gorgeous when sung, as we all know from The Girl from Ipanema.
