Sorry, but I think thats an exaggeration Its possible his school education is not so advanced. My niece that lived with me since she was a kid, learned portuguese from me, when she went to Portugal, her only difficulties were the portuguese accent, not the language itself, and she learned brazilian portuguese. I think it depends on the person.

I think Brazilian portuguese has a much stronger relationship to spanish. My friend who is from Brazil, often has a difficult time translated the european portuguese for me.
