Depends on the languages and on whether the speaker wants to be understood or not

When it comes to Spanish and Italian, the words are much closer together so it's easier to understand. Spanish and Romanian... not so much.

Of course, being Romance languages, they're all going to have noticeable similarities as they all effectively derive from the same language.

Portuguese speakers can easily understand Spanish and Galego, they can understand somewhat Italian, can understand somewhat less French, can understand shit about Romanian

Spanish 80%
Italian 40%
Catalan 70%
French 20%
never heard romanian

not really, no
you'll maybe vaguely figure out what they're talking about sometimes but that's about it

I found it easy as shit to get fluent in Spanish though so there's that

Italians and spaniards can understand each other enough. Portuguese is slavic tier that only spaniards can understand. French is retarded latin that italians understand slightly more than spaniards. Occitan and catalan are respectively accessible and easy french and spanish. Romanian is the "heyy man i'm back, how do I look" meme tier that only italians with knowledge of latin and deep ayy lmao languages can understand

I speak Portuguese and Spanish. I can understand Italian pretty well. Catalan and French are easier to understand in writing than spoken. Romanian, a word here and there, a little more in writing.

Catalan spaniard > French >Spaniard >>>>>>> Portuguese >>> Romanian
