Why is that Portuguese sounds like Spanish or French at times?
Portuguese can sound like Spanish or French because all three are closely related, in that they all descended from Vulgar Latin, which was the everyday spoken language of the Roman Empire. After the Roman Empire fell, over time, the people living in its various former provinces who formerly spoke Latin begin to diverge in speech. Think about how people in different parts of your own country speak with different accents. If they didn't have regular communication with each other, over time, their accents would get so strong that, while they sounded somewhat similar, they may not be able to understand each other. This is more or less what happened to Latin, which resulted in the various Romance languages (Portuguese, Spanish, French, as well as Italian, Romanian, Catalan, Occitan, and many others). In the case of Portuguese, Spanish and French - a long time ago, perhaps 1500 years ago, they were all the same language. At some point, they split into two languages: the mother of Spanish and Portuguese on one side, and the mother of French (and Occitan and Catalan) on the other. Later, Spanish and Portuguese split into two languages. This is why, grammatically, Spanish and Portuguese are more similar than French and Portuguese. Superficially, French and Portuguese can sound similar for a few reasons - they both share the uvular R (the 'throaty' as opposed to 'rolled' R of Spanish) and they both have nasal vowels. However, both of these similarities are more or less artifacts of history - Portuguese isn't more closely related, by descent, to French than Spanish is.

What are Latin-based languages?
The most well-recognized Latin (some also call them "Romance" languages, not because they are necessarily romantic, but because they are of Roman origin) are French, Spanish, Italian, Catalan, Portuguese and Romanian. However, there are also numerous less-known languages that have a Latin origin, among them: Asturian: Once considered a Spanish dialect, it is now regarded as an independent language of the west Spanish region of Asturia. Galician: A close relative of Portuguese, this language is mainly spoken in Galicia, a region of western Spain. Piedmontese: A language spoken in the northwestern Italian region of Piedmont, it is linguistically similar to Italian. In Italy this language is considered a dialect, although others consider it an independent language. Occitan: A close relative of Catalan, it is spoken in a number of regions in Spain, France, Italy and Monaco. The above list is by no means comprehensive; there are likely numerous other dialects that expand the variety. Also, keep in mind that languages that are not of Latin origin, such as English, have a significant Latin component. Looked at this way, there are dozens of languages that were influenced by Latin, especially the so-called Indo-European languages that make up the majority of languages in Europe. However ... The fact that a language has 'a significant Latin component' in its vocabulary doesn't mean that it 'stems' from Latin. There's much more to a language than its vocabulary. Moreover, in many cases much of the Latin vocabulary was imported fairly recently. == ==All the romance languages come from LatinItalianFrenchEnglishSpanishare just to name a few of these romance languages.And Romanian ( Eastern Romance language) .All Romance languages are derived from Latin, although not directly, but rather from Latin dialects (vulgar Latin): Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Catalan, Romanian... Italian is probably the nearest to Latin, sometimes so near that Italian natives can guess the meaning of a Latin motto, without ever having studied Latin. E.g. tempus fugit = il tempo fugge = time flees. Romanian is very similar to Latin too: timpul zboaraThere is a good amount of Latin-akin words in English as well, but many of them came into English later on from French. The longer and formal English words are likely to have a Latin origin, usually through French, but there are some English words borrowed directly from Latin, because of the long Roman domination in the UK, which lasted about four centuries.
