Why has there been such disproportionately high Portuguese influence in Sri Lanka compared to Dutch or British influence?
Discussion
Compared to the Dutch or the British, the Portuguese were here for the least amount of time, controlled the least amount of land, and a much larger time has passed since they left. Yet, arguably, their influence is still the greatest. Sometimes the influence is not noticed since it has been so normalized now.
Names: The three most common last names among the Sinhalese are Perera, De Silva, and Fernando. All of Portuguese origin. You have a lot more such as Almeida, Costa, Fonseca, etc. These names are so normalized that whenever we see a "Perera" or a "Silva" we automatically assume they are Sri Lankan. Dutch and British last names are much less common in Sri Lanka.
Religion: Catholicism, brought over by the Portuguese, is the largest Christian denomination by far. Dutch and British sects are less popular.
Words: There are literally hundreds of Portuguese origin words in Sinhala (I don't know about Tamil) used in every day life. Again, they are normalized such that people do not realize these words are of Portuguese origin. Comparatively, there are fewer Dutch words and aren't really used in everyday life all that much. While there are certainly English origin words in everyday use, these words definitely feel "foreign" and most of them (other than recent technological terms) have proper well-used Sinhala words as substitutes, whereas the Portuguese-origin words are considered normal Sinhala words.
Food: The chili was introduced by the Portuguese from South America. Can anyone imagine Sri Lankan food now without chili? A lot of the baked and fried food in Sri Lanka have Portuguese influence. Think bread, cake, cutlets, patties, caramel pudding, etc.
Music: Can anyone imagine Sri Lankan music without Baila? I don't think there's any such widespread Dutch or British musical influence.
