Perfect example of why giving context is so important.

Gustavo, is there any difference between portarse and comportarse?

Reminds me of something a friend used to tell me in Morelia:

-Pórtate bién, y si no te portas bién, invítame. jajaja

Yes, I know that is the literal translation, but it just does not sound right. THe context is "to his merit, he no longer behaves like that"
