How many countries speak Portuguese and spanish?

It's a bit tricky to give an exact number of countries that speak Portuguese and Spanish, as it depends on how you define "speak". Here's a breakdown:

Portuguese:

* Official Language: 9 countries (Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, São Tomé and Príncipe, East Timor, and Equatorial Guinea)

* Widely Spoken: Many more countries have significant Portuguese-speaking populations due to historical ties or migration, including:

* Africa: Several African countries like South Africa, Namibia, and Zimbabwe.

* Other: Including Macau (China), Goa (India), and other regions.

Spanish:

* Official Language: 20 countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Spain, Uruguay, and Venezuela).

* Widely Spoken: Like Portuguese, Spanish is spoken by a large diaspora, notably in the United States, where it's the second most spoken language.

In summary:

* Portuguese: While there are 9 countries where it's the official language, many more have significant Portuguese-speaking populations.

* Spanish: There are 20 countries where it's the official language, with a vast diaspora in other countries.

It's important to remember: The number of countries where a language is spoken is a complex issue. It's more accurate to talk about the number of countries where a language is an official language, and then to recognize the numerous countries where it's widely spoken, even if not official.
