What’up guys? For a lot of English speakers, it comes as a surprise to learn that Spanish has so many distinct different accents. For us Spanish speakers, it’s in our faces so much that we just cannot ignore our differences. Today I will take you on a journey across the accents in Spanish.
Stay till the end for tips about what accent to chose.

Puerto Rican Accent in Spanish
Puerto Ricans have some characteristics of other Caribbean countries like dropping the S or rather aspiring it.
Something unique about them is that they change the R for an L. So instead of Carne they say Carlne
Instead of manejar, they say manejal
Clazy eh?
Puerto Ricans before you type that angry comment, I want to say that I spent most of 2020 writing apology comments because Puerto Rican will never ever say Puelto Lico. They Say Puelto Rico. So sorry about that. It is not all the words. OK OK OK

Colombian Accent in Spanish
We move on to to my country Colombia. Party scene
People it is COLOMBIA not Columbia just to be clear
Colombia has many many accents like all of these countries and as a Colombian I catch these differences. Some major accents include Bogota, the rolo accent or paisa from Medellin
You can either be from Bogotá and just be kind of lame like me. We speak with a plain cold accent like our city.
Or you can be from Medellin, and have character and personality. Eh ave maria pues ome como está? It is hard to describe but paisa accent is more like a song, like up and down. We call it more cantaito
When in doubt just add pues to everything Kiubo pues como esta pues. Que paso pues.

Mexican Accent in Spanish
Now we go to Mexico…. And for some reason every time I say Mexico I have to say No mames wey

To me Mexican sounds a bit nasal. Que paso? Que paso? But it is important to point out that besides the regional Mexican accents, every Mexican person has two accents depending on who they want to be… They can be elegant and neutral. Buenas tardes señoritas Bienvenidos a Mexico. Or they can be super sayayin version Uber More Mexican que La chingada (Orale wey, no mames. Neta Neta)

Argentinian Accents in Spanish
Now we go to Argentina.




You may have heard that Argentinians replace the LL and Y with a SH sound
But the crazy thing is that Argentinian make the Sh sound even when it’s not supposed to be there. I cannot tell you how many times I have heard sounds where they just do that sound for nothing. Te hace falta courage corage * that’s when I am singing
Or Todos giran y giran * that’s when I have the guitar ) I cannot make this up.

Preuvian Accent in Spanish
Now we have to go to Peru
Even after spending days doing and exhaustive analysis I have realized that this accents is unexplainable.
It is like a mix of COlombian, with Argentinain, with Ecuadorian, mildly mixed into a something new.
Something characteristic is a little rooster in the middle of some words. You may be wondering if I am mad… Well, not exactly. Hola como estas? Trust me after months of examination and of me not leaving the room I came to this conclusion.

Chilean and Dominican Accent in Spanish
Finally we move to Chile and the Dominican Republic
Well, I don’t want to clump these two together because they are very very different, but if anybody who watches this video has a clue what they are saying? Well tell me. I think Chilean and Dominican Spanish should become their own language. Disagree with me….
I need to learn a new language… I mean poh poh. Poh was a teletubbie.

I have gone in depth into most latin American accents in previous videos. Check them out! Here.

But As promised I have to tell you tips and tricks about how to choose your accent. Well to be honest with you , you shouldn’t worry about choosing one in particular. Simply focus on learning how to communicate and you will start picking up how people around you speak. I can tell you that in my experience learning English, I tried to pick up accents and to this day I speak with a Colombian accent- which it’s the best in English and Spanish… Just don’t worry too much about consciously picking an accent it will come to you.
