Portuguese is the official language of this island nation off the coast of West Africa. It is a former Portuguese colony, and its population largely descends from both Portuguese settlers and West Africans brought there from the mainland. Before their arrival, the scattered islands of Cabo Verde were uninhabited. The culture of Cabo Verde is a fusion of Portuguese and African cultures, and the language they use in daily life is Cape Verdean Creole, which got most of its vocabulary from Portuguese, but is not Portuguese. ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Credits▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Producer and host: Paul Writer: James Watson Video editor: Luis Solana Ureña (Acribus Studio) ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Video co-stars▬▬▬▬● Santiago González Click the join button to become a video co-star ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Images▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● Images licensed from istock.com ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● The following images were used under Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 3.0 or Share Alike 4.0 license: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi....
