Whether you’re learning Spanish<\/a> for the first time or have been hearing it all your life and have yet to be able to distinguish it, differentiating between accents from various Spanish-speaking countries is very difficult but with a little practice \u2014 it can be done!<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are learning Spanish, the last thing you’ll want is to be called a <\/span>gringo<\/span><\/i> because of your accent. Part of the learning process is to be able to best imitate the accent as much as possible. However, to do so, you have to choose the Spanish accent to learn from, which can also be difficult because there are so many!<\/span>\"Spanish
\nLearning the distinct differences between various Spanish-speaking countries and their accents are important, especially when traveling. For example, all your dedication to learning the Spanish language might be for nothing if you go a Spanish-speaking country and you don\u2019t understand a word. Eventually, you’ll probably get used to the accent, but it\u2019s better to know beforehand what you’ll be getting yourself into.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this article, I\u2019m going to introduce some of the major Spanish accents.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where do people speak Spanish?<\/b><\/h2>\n

All over the world, actually. In whatever list you research, Spanish is usually placed high, in the top three most popular languages spoken throughout the world. Chances are, it\u2019s being taught in their schools to their children and printed in small print on labels all across the world. It\u2019s a handy language to know if you because based on the facts, if someone doesn’t speak English, your next best bet is Spanish. Well, actually the last of the top three languages is Chinese but that\u2019s not exactly elementary school learning to pick that language up.<\/span><\/p>\n

Countries range from all over South America (aside from Brazil, of course), most of Central America, Spain, and the Caribbean. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How to Recognize Different Spanish Accents<\/b><\/h2>\n

When traveling or venturing from one Spanish-speaking country to the next, the Spanish speakers differ from one another with three different aspects: pronunciation, emphasis on certain parts of the words, and they often have different words for certain terms and expressions.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Now we get to the main attraction, differentiating between various Spanish accents. <\/span><\/p>\n

Castilian<\/b><\/h3>\n

\"Spanish
\nVenturing on over to Spain, you’ll notice right away an instant difference. One of the main differences in Castillian is the beginning of the word. As I have played in Portugal with half of my teammates being from Spain the pronunciation of the beginning of these words were easy to pick up. <\/span><\/p>\n

In the beginning of words with a C or even Z, you’ll notice that Spaniards pronounce it like a \u201cTH\u201d. For example, instead of <\/span>ciudad<\/span><\/i> \u2014 \u201csee-oo-DAHD\u201d, \u00a0it is \u201cthee-oo-DAHD\u201d. S is also spoken as a \u201csh\u201d. In this dialect there are other differences in the accents but so little time! Those are the two main ones.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nMexican<\/b><\/h3>\n

\"Spanish
\nMost commonly spoken in the southwestern U.S., and of course, in Mexico, Mexican Spanish is highly influenced by their indigenous languages and surprisingly, American English. Mexican Spanish speakers use shorter vowels in speaking, as they talk with a sing-song voice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Both the letters \u201cB\u201d and \u201cV\u201d are mostly pronounced as a \u201cB\u201d would in English. Also when speaking Spanish, as I mentioned before, the characteristic melody of the way Mexicans speak is that they often pronounce the stress on the second syllable in many words. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Argentinian<\/b><\/h3>\n

\"Spanish
\nLiving with an Argentinian, I was able to pick up a few things without even realizing it from the way she speaks. (You can imagine how that was\u2014a Brazilian and an Argentinian on a soccer team living together\u2014talk about rivalry!) Fortunately, she grew to be one of my closest friends.<\/span><\/p>\n

Porte\u00f1o or Argentine Spanish is a lot softer. When it comes to the accents, \u201cy\u201d sounds like \u201csh\u201d, for example: <\/span>tuyo<\/span><\/i> become \u201ctusho\u201d, <\/span>calle<\/span><\/i> (\u201cca-ye\u201d) becomes \u201ccashe\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, something notable, they normally don’t use the word <\/span>t\u00fa<\/span><\/i> for you, they use <\/span>vos<\/span><\/i>, meaning that the verb conjugation changes slightly.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Caribbean & Coastal Latin America<\/b><\/h3>\n

\"Spanish
\nDawned some inspiration from Camila Cabello\u2019s \u201cHavana\u201d and are heading down to Cuba this summer? Be prepared to hear some of these differences in a Caribbean Spanish accent.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the Caribbean, speakers tend to drop the end of the two like \u201cd\u201d, \u201ct\u201d, and \u201cs\u201d. For example, in words like <\/span>verdad<\/span><\/i> or<\/span> mitad, <\/span><\/i>Cubans will pronounce it like \u201cverda\u201d and \u201cmita\u201d. <\/span>Gracias<\/span><\/i> also becomes \u201cgracia\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

In these Spanish-speaking countries, you can also get confused by the \u201cr\u201d and \u201cl\u201d. In words containing these two letters, Caribbean speakers don\u2019t make much distinction between the two. <\/span>Cerdo <\/span><\/i>is commonly pronounced <\/span>celdo<\/span><\/i>, which loosely means that the word for \u201cpig\u201d becomes \u201ccell\u201d\u2014which seems pretty harmless. However, when the word <\/span>alma, <\/span><\/i>meaning \u201csoul\u201d<\/span> is pronounced <\/span>arma,<\/span><\/i> which means weapon or gun, you can see how things can get a bit complicated.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Colombian<\/b><\/h3>\n

\"Spanish
\nColombian Spanish tends to use <\/span>Usted <\/span><\/i>instead of <\/span>t\u00fa,<\/span><\/i> and from an accent standpoint, they often eat their letters \u2014 for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They don\u2019t like to pronounce their \u201cb\u201d and \u201cd\u201d either, which can be pretty confusing.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, when saying <\/span>sentada<\/span><\/i> they say \u201csenta-a\u201d and <\/span>cansado<\/span><\/i> becomes \u201ccansa-o\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Colombia, they also do not distinguish between \u201cy\u201d and \u201cll\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Peruvian<\/b><\/h3>\n

\"Spanish
\nPeruvians place emphasis on the \u201cs\u201d when pronouncing and most often my favorite type of Spanish (my grandfather was from Peru so I might be a little biased) because they speak clearly. They also tend to use the word <\/span>pues <\/span><\/i>quite often.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the only differences is that they sometimes pronounce the letter \u201cd\u201d like a \u201ct\u201d:<\/span><\/p>\n

Chilean<\/b><\/h3>\n

\"Spanish
\nIn Chile, their accent also has a lot of dropping of letters, as well. Most words that end in a vowel, they lose the letter \u201cd\u201d. They also lose the \u201cv\u201d when the word ends in –<\/span>v\u00f3n.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

When Chileans speak, they also pronounce \u201cch\u201d with a \u201csh\u201d sound.<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n

Picking the right Spanish accent for you to learn is mainly based on what type of Spanish you want to be speaking or which one will be the most useful for you. Before you dive headfirst into one of the dialects, do your research beforehand and see if the choice will best benefit you.<\/span><\/p>\n

The best way to get used to the different Spanish accents is by doing a lot of listening. With LingQ you can listen to content and follow along to the transcript, translating words and phrases as you go. These words and phrases are then highlighted in future lessons and can be studied with the vocabulary activities. You can even search for lessons with specific accents to learn from.<\/p>\n
