funny, isn't it?? Mexicans never had their own language, they speak Spanish, but sometimes my friends see some Latinos talking to each other in Spanish and then they whisper "listen, isn't it Mexican? It sounds like they speak Mexican. They look like they are Mexican." And I was like "Is Mexican a language???"
my other question is why do some people think all Spaniards speak Spanish?
I have no idea. Once me and a friend were talking with a tourist and at the end we asked him "were are you from?" he said he was from Spain, and my friend automatically said "oh, we study Spanish at school" yes we do but not all Spaniards speak Spanish,...my friend tried to say some words but the man didn't understand anyways because he speaks Gallego "I speak Gallego, not Spanish".
Hahah it was funny because my friend didn't understand a f***
in Spain people speak Castilian (what we call Spanish), or Catalan, Gallego, Euskera, etc.
spanish in spain?
lol i was just wondering do these to have any diffrences in pronunciation? if so then what is it?
thanks (:
I am taking Spanish 1 at my college and we are doing a spanish project on spanish speaking countries like Spain and Mexico and telling the class a few things on each country. I wanted to bring in food for the class, but I wasn't sure of what to bring in. What are some food or appetizers that are tasty and it won't be too messy for a class around 20 that is affordable too?

I know they speak Spanish, but Mexicans speak somewhat differently than in Spain. That's what I meant.
Yes, I'm a girl.
I need this for a novel I'm writing--not to swear at someone. It needs to be Spanish as spoken in Mexico, not in Spain or other country where Spanish is spoken. Thanks
I hear and see a lot of stories of marriage between Spanish men and women from Colombia, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Mexico,etc,etc
But why aren't there as much Spanish men/Latinamerican men marriages?
Why this difference?
And why Spanish men prefer Latin American women?
Is there a shortage of attractive women in Spain?
I know that the meaning of being mexican is having part native indian haritage from aztec and spanish decent from spain So is it true that those with curls in their hair are more spanish than native indian?
I need to come up with an activity that will last about an hour that my High School Spanish club can do about the Easter time of year that relates to how Mexico or Spain spends easter. It has to be school appropriate and not really religious.
Hey everyone.
I'm trying to get into learning Spanish and have come to a bit of a crossroads. For many products for language learning, there's two forms of Spanish. Latin American and Spain. What exactly are the differences? Like Rosetta Stone for instance. I can get Latin American, or Spain.
Is the difference just with pronunciation? If I were to learn Latin American Spanish, would I be able to go speak and read in Spain without any problems? I'm more interested in Spain, but I'm really curious as to what the differences are and if the differences are big enough to cause problems?
Thanks in advance!
OK, so 'you' is different. Is that all?
Is there a huge difference between Latin American Spanish and Spain Spanish? I'm trying to learn to speak Spanish and my fiance picked up Spain Spanish. Are there huge difference between the two? Thanks.
in my third year of my uni course (french and spanish) i take a year abroad, 6 months for each language. i am familiar with france and spain already and would like to take the oppurtunity to go further afield maybe south america but im a bit stuck for french though...the carribbean? is the french different there? any recommended countries/cities?
I mean, I assume Spain considering they speak Spanish.
Spanish people ARE not brown. Why do they then speak mexican?
Ps, ive been to spain MANY times!
I know pollo means chicken is spanish(im not stupid).How do you say it in mexican,ive always wanted to speak mexican,than brazilian,than asian 
My friend from mexico is coming and i want her to see i can speak a little mexican ^_^
UMMM NO Graham, your wrong. Chicken means Pollo in spanish, which only spanish people(who are from SPAIN) speak spanish, therefore you are wrong and i am right and you are a loser and i am cool. Got IT!!?
there is about million english people in spain and they dont speak spanish should they learn? or they should be deported?
x_Nikkyy... not me amigo just "mio amigo"
if you want to learn spanish or if you speak spanish which accent would you like??? mexican accent or spain accent?
Latin America, Spain, and Mexico all have different spin offs of the Spanish language correct? So how would you say 'I miss you' in a Mexican dialect? Or is that phrase the same in all areas? If so please still write out the translation. Thanks!
I def. do. I met these two guys today one was from Spain and the other was from Mexico. They weren't really all that cute but their accents were soo sexy! So do you find Spanish/Mexican accents attractive as well?
I can only find sites that teach spain based spanish and it is much different.
When in comes to verb conjugations in Latin-American Spanish, I'm not sure if I have to learn the "vosotros" forms because I read that it is mainly used in Spain. Do I still have to learn the vosotros forms for verb conjugations?
Brazilians are latino and they speak portuguese, and people from Spain speak spanish, and their European. And dint tell me they're latino, because if they were, that would make people from France, Portugal, and Italy latinos too!
Hello, again! Now that I know that it's possible for me to have relatives in Spain or Mexico, even though I'm not Spanish or Mexican descent, I need to know whether the surname or surnames would be the same or different.
I was just wondering...
So if you have someone from Spain and someone from Puerto Rico, would they be able to communicate easily?
Also,Would it b a waste of time to learn castillean spanish? Does spain only speak it?and how much of a challenge is it, if it is hard? Gracias
Stereotyping much?
They could be from Spain.....
and If Mexico and Spain have powerful professional soccer leagues, they only import players and export very few players?
despite that... I believe Medico will win the world cup!
Powerful $$$$$$$$$$$ leagues.
Hello!
Well, I am mexican and I always have wondered that. You may know that spanish has different pronunciations, in Spain the 's', 'z' and 'c' aren't pronounced in the same way, in Mexico they do.
So, do you learn spanish with mexican pronunciation?
Thank you!!!
Hello. None of my family is Spanish or Mexican descent, but I learned that I could have relatives worldwide. So I'm wondering if it's possible for me to have relatives in Spain or Mexico. Besides, I was born in California.
Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Costa Rica, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Portugal, England, USA.
I'd like to know which countries speak Spanish as their dominant language. Thank you!
Can you please translate this for me? Can you use the more "formal" version, like vosotros? Preferably with the corrrect accents and spelling to get the best answer points! Thanks!
I lost my bag during the performance of "Cut Copy" on Saturday around
12:30am - it was a blue bag by "Jack Spade" that I was wearing on my
shoulder. I either put it down or someone took it off my shoulder.
Inside it was a minidisk recorder, microphone, headphones, Canon Camera.
I am a Radio Reporter so I NEED the MINIDISK and Camera CARD more than
anything else since it has very important interviews on it that I did
with the bands... and without the disk I have lost all the interviews.
IF you stole the bag you can keep everything else... I just want the
disk.
If you FOUND the bag and will return all the contents, I will give you
a big reward, probably worth more than what you would receive by
selling the equipment in Spain. Please email me at
email@email.com
Thanks
Since I am going to be in Portugal for a week with family, we have decided that we will be taking a trip to Madrid for a week or so. I'm American, so when my best friend taught me Spanish back in middle school, she taught me to pronounce things with a Mexican accent. So, I was wondering if in Spain, if they heard that I spoke my Spanish with a Mexican accent, would I be looked down upon or treated differently? Thank you so much, I'm looking forward to my trip! =)
