Which is more used in the world, Portuguese or Spanish?

Portuguese and Spanish belong to the Latin family. Portuguese is relatively easy to learn. Spanish and Portuguese have little influence in Europe, and are basically only used in Iberian Peninsula. Spanish is the national language of 20 countries in Spain, Latin America and Africa, the working language of the United Nations and one of the international languages. At present, the Spanish-speaking population in the world is about 400 million. Due to colonial history, Spanish is widely used outside Europe, especially in Latin America. Spanish is spoken in most countries and regions in Central America, Caribbean Islands and South America, including Argentina, Mexico and Colombia. Portuguese is not as common as Spanish in the United States, but Brazil, a big country in this region, uses Portuguese. Many pronunciations of Spanish and Portuguese are the same, and Portuguese is a branch of Latin born after Catalan. Compared with French, Spanish, Italian, Catalan and Romanian, Portuguese is relatively easy to learn. Although the writing of Portuguese is very close to that of Spanish, in comparison, Portuguese is softer because it contains some nasal sounds that Spanish does not have. Spanish prefixed with "H" is very common, while Portuguese mostly prefixed with "F". Portuguese in Brazil is relatively soothing than Portuguese in Portugal, but Brazilians and Portuguese can talk without difficulty. Galician is popular in Spain and Galissa in the northwest, and is considered as a dialect of Portuguese. Portuguese in Europe is not much different from Portuguese in Brazil. Their relationship is similar to that of British English and American English: they come from each other, but they often have different pronunciations, grammar, syntax and idioms, but they all know each other more or less. European Portuguese is usually used as the standard Portuguese.
