WE SPEAK SPANISH

We speak Spanish - Hablamos Espanol

Spanish is probably on of the most desirable languages to learn to speak and can roughly be divided into to broad categories, viz, South American Spanish and Euro Spanish. Euro Spanish (Castilian) has a very distinctive sound from South American Spanish and is very evident in words like Barcelona, cerveca, concecer .... where one of the  c's is pronounce as th, sounding like Barthelona, thervesa, conether. South American Spanish on the other hand is also very diversified in the sense that Argentinians sound so very different from Mexicans, Chileans sound so different from Venezuelans, Colombians sound so different from Cubans, and the list goes on. 

Barcelona, the gateway to Europe.

When learning South American Spanish, it is feasible to adopt one nationality's intonation, especially when learning to decipher speech from Telenovelas and Spanish movies. I find a lot more Spanish movies are produced in Spain but most Hollywood movies targeted at South Americans are just badly audio dubbed. As a student of the language I find the cognates of English and the similarities of Arabic grammar used in Spanish most intriguing. This can quite easy be heard in Spanish Movies.

Especially movies like "María, llena eres de gracia" - Maria full of Grace, "Amores Peros"; Love's a Bitch, "Habla con Ella", Talk to her, "Nueva Reinas"- Nine of Queens, "Mar Adentro" - Sea Inside, "Los Olvidados" - The forgotten ones", Y Tu Mamá También"- And you too Mama, and so many other movies is evidence of this, which I will expound on as we go.
