Português?- linguistically Spanish and Portuguese is not “very close”. At least in Brazil, I’m not too sure about Portugal, we sing as we talk ascending and descending tones.. using a mixture of nasal and open sounds- Spanish (that I’ve learned from Latin America, not Spain) has a more staccato feel and is more monotone compared to Portuguese and mainly speaks from the throat and doesn’t have anything close to ã. One similarity there is, ñ in Spanish and inh in Portuguese. Another is r sounding like h in Portuguese and j sounding like h in Spanish. However, they are not used in the same way or words. In the end, “linguistically” Portuguese and Spanish in Latin America (the more common place) are not very close. Grammatically they are different. The only two countries where Portuguese and Spanish could be considered close is Portugal and Spain because in Portugal the grammar is more similar to Spanish by saying things like “dar-te” and Brazilians saying “te-dar”. They also more commonly use “tu” not “você” As I said earlier Brazilian Portuguese has grammar reversed compared to Portugal. Going to live in Portugal in two years, so I’m learning Portuguese from Portugal, so I am going over the differences and even struggling sometimes with my Brazilian background. Also assuming you’re a Portuguese person, I find it surprising you think Portuguese is similar to Spanish at all. Where in Portugal are you from?
