    Hello, I'm Portuguese and I study Portuguese Language and Literature. The fact that there are similarities of language terms it's because of a theory named "waves theory", that basically refers to a theory that believes that the Latin languages born in Rome made the expansion in wave form, where Portugal and Romania, for example, are in the same wave but in total different locations.

      The entire ancient history tells us that early Romans were a Pelaic population, dislocated from south Balkans to central Italy, at Achaeans arrival. Part of the Pelaic Tyrrhenian linguistic group. There are strong reasons to believe that Latin was a Celtified form of another Pelaic language, from what is called the Romance linguistic family today, in fact Pelasg people and languages. Of course, expanding all evolved in different Proto European mixes at base.

      Google actually uses both but it will almost always choose to translate a language into brazilian portuguese. Sometimes it translates into european portuguese though, you can test this with the sentence "Vou gozar com ele" which google translates to "I'm going to make fun of him" which is correct in european portuguese but has a completelly different meaning in brazil ("I'm gonna cum with him"). It's really stupid that google doesn't make a distinction between regional languages like english, portuguese, spanish or german which can be wildly different in meaning sometimes.

      It does, and we call it Chá not tea because we dealt with the Cantonese, not the Nothern Chinese like the Dutch would go on to do and who called it té. However, it is likely the Brits actually got "tea" from what the Portuguese had written on the trading crates: Transporte de Ervas Aromáticas. (T.E.A.) Being their main trade partners during the period, and since we had protected the Brits from a second French Invasion with the treaty of Windsor, which they repaid us by undermining us every chance they could in the global stage.

Economy, as well as culture and politics, is also an aspect which shows how huge differences there are between societies and is one of many things that make the old Eastern Europe divide totally irrelevant and outdated. If we need to put countries into groups, we must do it in a way which acknowledges current similiarities between them. The cultural aspects you refer to might've been relevant decades, centuries ago and have almost nothing to do with how people live. The societies are totally different and each country has it's own modern culture. If similiar food is a good enough reason for you to put countries from two different universes into one group, well then, congrats to you.

    As a Portuguese, and only considering our language, it is very funny that our language (romance) has many features in pronountiation and grammar similar to Polish and Russian. We can easily learn slavonic languages and they can easily learn ours. Portuguese is based on Latin of the end of the 4th century. Romanian, the sister language of our brothers from Romania, is of the same era. We can understand about 80% of written Romanian and so can they about Portuguese. 20% of the rest of the language comes from Arabic for Portuguese and old Slavonian for Romanian. Also the grammar is conservative, like Romanian and Italian (we still have some declensions in our pronouns and articles, which come contracted). On the contrary, our sister languages Spanish, Catalonian and French, lost that feature (almost).

    Way back when the Portuguese first brought tea from China, they called it the same thing the Chinese did: "Chá". But the thing is that we wrote it as "Tca". So when the English tried to read the crates with Tca on them, they just assumed the "c" was an "e", started to call it Tea and the mispronunciation just spread from there.
    Also, "curva" isn't a bad word here, it just means curve. It has no connection to the east.

    I think the US travel advisor map is not that much about politics, but more about the dangers of being a tourist in said country. I think most of Western Europe is yellow with increased caution is because of the high volume of tourism, there are a lot of tourist scams. Like look it up, pickpockets everywhere, the painting scams, the bracelets scams, all sorts of various rigged games played around famous landmarks. These types of scams are usually not that prevalent in Eastern Europe. In Bulgaria, for example the most infamous one is the black taxis that just sit at airports, train and bus stations. Just use local apps to call a taxi to avoid those x). Pickpockets used to be popular in the 90s and early 2000s, now not so much. Now a more popular tactic is to act like a beggar, sit near a place with heavy traffic and act like an invalid/beggar. But yeah, many of the Western European scams are not in use here. Plus crime is not that high, you're not gonna get shot or stabbed even if you walk around at night, just avoid dodgy areas like gypsy ghettos :D

    TEA is called tea in english because we use to sell tea to England, where was used to label the box as 'TEA - Transporte de Ervas Aromáticas'', meaning transportation of aromatic herbs''

      This has been proven to be the actual explanation, according to historians, and should be highlighted!

      The T.E.A. being the root of the English word "tea" is a myth.
      It's exactly as Drew explained, different linguistic influences. In French it has the same root "thé".
      And please, never claim the japanese word "arigato" comes from "obrigado" because that's another myth and the japanese people feel insulted and go balistic.
      Tempura, tho, really comes from "tempero". That one is true.
