lol, whoever said that Spanish was stupid was just a portuguese/brazilan who was mad because of what I said about PT, which is true.

Argentinian does not sound like Spanish at all, it sounds like another Romance language: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhAhXE2SfhQ

Pronunciation and intonation is completely different.

Argentinian is Spanish spoken with Napolitan intonation. The Spanish language is very diverse and rich, but I prefer the Castilian accent.

Castillian accent? She is not even a native speaker. Here you have a woman with a real Castillian accent, that's to say, an accent from the North of Spain:

She is not a native speaker, but is using the Castilian accent.

"She is not a native speaker, but is using the Castilian accent."

No, she isn't, she's just a foreigner with a good Spanish accent. Have you ever known a Castillian who pronounces with seseo? She is not speaking with any accent of Spain, neither Castillian nor Andalusian. If at least she made the distinction, you could say she's trying to do a Castillian accent, but that's not the case.

Moro? Don't be silly. First of all, it's not arab, secondly, there is nothing wrong with having an arab past, and to finish, wouldn't it be more arab the Latin American accents that have a stronger influence from Andalusian than Castillian dialect has? Remember that Andalusian is, among the Spanish accents arround the world, the most influenced by the ancient mozárabe language.
