Which country has the best Spanish?
Valladolid, Spain
León, Spain
I don't think so...
In Valladolid they use SH-like sound for S: fieshta, sounds a bit Portuguese.
And in León (as well in Asturias, Galicia, Canarias) simple past is preferred: Ya comiste, Le vi esta noche....It's dialectal within Spain.
<<every Spanish in the world loses D's, if not completely, than it's softened, but it never sounds like in French or in English.>>
That's incorrect, in Mexico they do pronounce all letters, in fact not pronoucing all letters is seen a uneducated.
In Valladolid they use SH-like sound for S: fieshta, sounds a bit Portuguese.
It's common to all Spaniards except for the Andalusians and Canarians.
And the D sound is 95% pronounced as TH (this) in English. Think about it.
here are some words and compare them:
1st group where D sounds like D in French and English:
dar, dinamarca, dragón, trabajando
2nd group is softened
nada, Madrid, cantado, madre, leopardo etc...
Most people from Madrid would pronounce it: cantao and not cantado.
This may be accepted there but it's considered vulgar/low class in Latin America.
Valladolid, Spain
León, Spain
Burgos, Spain
These cities are traditionally known as the realm of the Castilian language, but they have the ugly laismo-leismo-loismo thing, so for me they are disqualified .I find particuarly beautiful Spanish spoken in Valencia (by native Spanish speakers I mean). Even Valencian speakers also speak very good Spanish for my taste as their accent is not as strong as in the case of Catalonia.
Which country has the best Spanish? -Hispanic countries Spanish is the Casilias (not Castilian) or inodoro form.
The Spanish spoken by the Indians and hindus in spain (almost 50% of the population is South Asian and gypsy)
PS. At least all of them, hindu Spaniards and Iberian Spaniards hate the Americans and all the Western cultures. They have a lot in common!
Namaskar, mi amigos!
"At least all of them, hindu Spaniards and Iberian Spaniards hate the Americans and all the Western cultures."
They do? Do they reject medical care from Western cultures?
<< Es "Mis amigos", animal. >>
C'est qu'un erreur typographique, merde!
Spanish from Central-North Spain; it is the original one and really the best.
I prefer European Spanish and I don't particularly like American varieties. Spanish without c/z sound is less distinctive
This may be accepted there but it's considered vulgar/low class in Latin America.
Who cares in Spain what the Latin American think?. In Spain everything related to Latin American is considered vulgar.
The ones Who think that everything related to latin american is vulgar are ignorant and miss a lot
