Will Adderall help you learn French?
Adderall doesn\'t directly increase your ability to learn anything; that is to say, your memory alone is no better with or without it. Adderall does, however, tend to increase focus and motivation, which could help you learn the material.
If it hasn\'t been prescribed to you by a doctor, though, I wouldn\'t use it as a tool to learn French, or for that matter anything else. Most people only feel as if they study better and produce work of higher quality while they\'re under the influence of it, while the reality of the situation is that they are capable of the same things sober with just a bit of persistence. If you use it consistently, the cost adds up significantly, and you\'d be surprised at how addicting this stuff can be, and where you\'ll quickly find yourself. Take it from an amphetamine addict. Most people aren\'t nearly as biologically prone as I am, but if you\'ve never taken it before and a doctor hasn\'t felt the need to give it to you, it\'s not nearly worth the potential legal, monetary, and health problems it could give rise to.

American English and Canadian French also illustrate this abundantly.
And like American English and Canadian French, Brazilian Portuguese also has been heavily influenced by indigenous speech and even by the speech of imported African slaves.

What part of the new world was influenced by Portuguese culture?
Portugal's only land in the New World (that lasted) was Brazil, a colony (and modern day country) comprising over half of the South American continent. Brazil's official and most spoken language is by far Portuguese and it also shows cultural influence by the Portuguese. Uruguay was at once a part of Portuguese Brazil so you too could argue that it has been influenced by its Portuguese rulers.
If you are English speaking it is harder than Spanish but I would argue far richer. It is the language that most closely resembles Latin of any spoken today. The grammar is complex and the vocabulary is large but the language follows strict rules for pronounciation and spelling so once you have mastered these reading aloud is easy. The differences between Portuguese spoken in Porgugal, Brazil and African countries is fascinating. Good luck!
