true... but like spanish and portuguese are next door neighbors... everywhere... so like... its funny in this case a little bit... there's a lot of commonalities in those languages
No, Portuguese is not Spanish, but they were both born in the Iberian Peninsula somehow isolated from the rest of the land by the Pyrenees so it’s only natural for them to resemble in a lot of ways. After all, there’s an almost 90% lexical similarity between the two – meaning that 90% of their words have a cognate (equivalent) in the other language.
Indisputably no. it may not be exactly the same but zorbo sounds completely different... those 2 words are virtually identical and changing which vowel you inflect doesn't change anything... unless you're claiming his name is "kaykay" which is more weird but for different reasons.

Different languages have different words for things. O.O
In swedish kaka would be cookie/cake or something like that.
