Only because he's Portuguese and not Spanish.

I knew it was Portugese, but I thought it was still two words.

Apparently sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't. I thought only English did that.

Well, Old English was derived from Old German, with a little Lating left over from the Roman Occupation, though they fought that. Then the Saxons invaded and brought more German with them. Then the Normans came along and some French got thrown in.
Modern English is truly a mess.
