In the 1970s, however, many people began to study English as a second language instead of French. In the past few years, however, Spanish , or rather Castellano, has become the preferred language of Brazilian diplomats and businessman, Furthermore, in Argentina, which has always competed with Brazil for the senior position among South American nations, Portuguese has become more popular than any other foreign language


Slide131: The reason for this change is Mercosur, the South American equivalent of the European Community. Mercosur was founded by Brazil , Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay in 1991.
