Mom ran the house, so we grew up Portuguese.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
From one till seven, when we moved to England, I spoke only Portuguese. But I can't speak a word of it now.
From 1 till 7, when we moved to England, I spoke only Portuguese.
I come from Brazil, which is a Portuguese speaking part of the continent.
I was raised mostly by my mom.
We were raised in an Italian-American household, although we didn't speak Italian in the house. We were very proud of being Italian, and had Italian music, ate Italian food.
Soon after I was born, my parents moved to the South Florida area, and I've lived here ever since (with a few years of living in both Portugal and Brazil in my younger days).
My mum is Brazilian and very proud. I'd love to do a Brazilian film. I've been brought up in the Brazilian culture. My mum brought me up on my own, I cook Brazilian food, I've never spoken a word of English to my mother.
Mum was always hard-working. She came over from Spain and bought her own council house.
I was born here in the States. I moved to Portugal when I was five. And then my parents put me in an English school.
I grew up speaking Spanish and English. My mother can speak Spanish, English, French and Italian, and she's pretty good at faking Portuguese. I wish that I spoke more languages than I do.
