Hi 👋. Honduran here 🇭🇳 . Outside of Latin America, we're the forgotten Spanish speakers, so it's kinda cool that you decided to make this video and speak on our Spanish dialects. ❤ I was a little bit sad about the last 2 videos you used as reference for Honduran slang not being from Honduran content creators though. The gentleman in the couple is Dominican American, and that's why you heard the 21:50 grammatical construction. We, Hondurans, DO NOT USE THAT AT ALL. That is such a Dominican thing to say. For that matter, we don't even use "tú" as the second person singular. "Vos" and "usted" are used instead. I find your content always very educational, and your approach is always extremely polite and respectful, but I just felt the need to clarify those points. I hope you get to read this is :).

Hello, greetings from Panama. Great video, I understand you cannot include all accents in one video but in Panama is very notable the accents of the country side, specially the region called Azuero, one feature of that accent is that it has a "singing" quality, we call it "jondeao", it also uses vos instead of tú and different words. We also borrowed words from English and French (for example "buco" from French beaucoup, it means "mucho" = a lot)

We were a single country at one point if that wasn’t obvious 🇬🇹🇸🇻🇭🇳🇳🇮 Generally we all speak the same. Mexicans and Colombians have many accents within their country as well, but generally you can tell when someone is Mexican or Colombian. same thing goes for Central American. Naturally Central Americans have slightly different accents like in any other country but not very different. Of course in Guatemala there are indigenous communities so they have a unique accent different to the rest when speaking, but outside of that most of us speak very similarly. Not only accent but we share similar slang words and ways to say things like pisto, chucho, guirro, cipote, cabal, mire ve, nambe (no hombre), ajá (yes), we say “pue” at the end of sentences. we all say “pajilla” or “sorbete” to say straw, “huevón” is someone lazy etc. So many things that other places outside of central america wouldn’t be understand. so you can tell a central american accent but not always from where. Sometimes you can confuse a eastern guatemalan accent for a salvadoran or a salvadoran for a honduran or a honduran for a nicaraguan or a nicaraguan for a cost rican.

“Huevon” is also Mexican slang for lazy and every Spanish speaking county understands that word. It’s self explanatory anyways. Infact a lot of slang, if you’re a native Spanish speaker, you can kind of figure out with the context even if you’re not from the country. It’s hard for people who speak Spanish as a second language to understand the slang. Slang is also endless haha. I remember when someone asked me “mañana vas a chambear” ?and I was like what the hell is chambear but when I stood there not saying anything he said “trabajas mañana”? So chamba means job or work? I guess so but it’s Mexican slang.

Sahil le xchoo'lejil Hey there! I'm from Guatemala and I'm a mayan Q'eqchi'. I just wanna say that my country is an obligation to study a mayan language. It depends where you live in Guatemala. In my case I live in Cobán and Here we spoke Q'eqchi'. So, We study Q'eqchi' from Elementary, Middle and Highschool. But... there is a problem that People feel shame about their roots. And They're not teaching their mother tongue. I'm lucky and blessed because my family spoke Spanish and Q'eqchi'. And my later father always tought about my culture. Nowadays, the second most spoken language is Q'eqchi'. It used to be Kiche and Kaqchiqel. But you know people feel shame and also others descriminate cuz they don't speak well spanish or he/she is mayan. I don't wanna be rude but I feel that Latinos are racist with their own people. And they don't accept this. They are not interested about culture and local languages and they hated the spanish crown.

In fact, some people in the Caribbean parts of Panama (especially elders) who are descendants of those immigrants, they still speak "patois" a mix of English and French (from what I'm told).

Not all Salvadorans use caliche (slang) as much, it depends on the education you receive at home, and the environment where you live. To me, sometimes it sounds funny but other times it's actually terrible. There are actually several accents in El Salvador depending on the area of the country where you live.

another really cool thing is Nawat is the southern most still spoken Nahua language, as in the similar Nahuatl the language spoken by the Aztecs, the reason for this is explained by a legend how 1000yrs ago a group fled mexico led by their leader Ce Acatl who was the exiled priest king of the Toltecs, they established new settlements in what would become the Pipil in El Salvador and even as far south as Nicaragua

A little part of Nicaraguan history. The pirates used to travel from the Caribbean through the San Juan River and Lake Nicaragua to ransack one of the oldest Spanish cities in America, Granada. It was founded in 1524. It’s located in the western end of Lake Nicaragua.

I can tell you that Central American Spanish is one of the most easy to understand, way easier than Argentinian or Spaniard or Venezuelan spanish. Especially easy to understand is the Spanish from El Salvador and Costa Rica. Not Panama, they speak Caribbean Spanish.

Buen vídeo, good video.

THANK YOU FOR THE HISTORY NOTES OF THE MEZTIZOS.

I’m from El Salvador and i have many friends from the other Central American countries and it’s actually easy to tell where accent they are from even if they are from Honduras where the accent is kinda similar to us

I am from Panamá, thank you for your video.

Nice video I am from El Salvador... We understand and say some words because we were a unique country years ago...

I appreciate it that you teach how we speak ,as a Guatemalteco but I think you left a lot of more important words that those ones 🇬🇹🇬🇹

Wow, Panama has verlan like French! 🤯

Panamanian here. We even constantly use French inspired words like “buco” taken from the French word “Beaucoup” to say the same meaning “A lot.” I remember having some difficulties with that word when I was learning French cause I said “buco instead of bocu” as how it’s pronounced in French.

In Panama, there are tons of different dialects that can easily be noticed and tell other people where you are from. Exactly as it happens everywhere else. Also there is Spanglish in our common day speaking: 25 cents is a /kuara/, /parkin/ is a gathering or party. And no, not many speak English or Creole. The Creole speakers locate in Colón and Bocas del Toro. Saludos desde Panamá :)

❤❤😂😂❤❤ Thanks for this great video ❤❤

What a lovely video, thank you for your impressions. As tico (Costa Rican) I just realized about my accent when started to travel to other Spanish speaking countries and even though it sounds similar to Colombian, the R really tells where I am from.

1. Costa Rica 2. Salvador 3. Belice 4. Nicaragua 5. Guatemala 6. Honduras 7. Panama

The other fact is referring to local accents as dialects: they most definitely are not! We speak Spanish or Castilian from California to Patagonia, and we understand each other perfectly well.

21:50 I’m not sure if this was an oversight since you made it clear earlier in the video that Central America uses vos instead of tú, but we certainly don’t say that in Honduras either. If anything the way people here would say that phrase is “¿cómo estás vos?” or “¿vos cómo estás?” the “vos” is generally added at the start or end even if it’s already implied that you’re talking about the other person. Other than that little mistake I did find the video and the clips you used interesting.

I usually like your videos, but when you said there were only seven accents in Nicaragua, I felt upset because I could think about at least seven accents within Nicaragua. I would also say that some of the characteristics and vocabulary you mentioned for specific countries are also true for Nicaragua. Another thing, the "dropped s" (we call it aspirated s) doesn't come from British pirates; it comes from Andalusian Spanish.

Si, muy cierto!. Nicaragua tiene un acento diferente según la región. Soy de Chinandega y recuerdo cuando visité el Sauce, me costaba mucho comprender la jerga, y el acento también era diferente. Me la pase usando a una amiga de traductor dentro de mi propio país 😢. Conocimos unas amigas en una discoteca en Costa Rica y estábamos compartiendo con una amiga que era de Managua , las chicas costarricenses aseguraban que mi amiga de Managua si era nicaragüense, pero que no reconocían mi acento y me decían que era de alguna región de Colombia. Lo más chistoso es ahora que vivo en Suiza, cuando me presento con latinos, lo primero que me preguntan es si soy de Colombia. Así que ya los invite a mi país y espero que lo confirmen. No tenemos un acento específico, aunque el país sea pequeño.

Pura vida from Costa Rica we even have different accents within the country but that's true they say people from central valley speak similar to Colombians from Bogota

That was fun!!

Saludos desde Honduras hoy me suscribí a tu canal este es un país hermoso y Pacífico con gente amable te saludo desde la capital Tegucigalpa

Great video! I loved it! ❤ There is just one thing I would like to clarify. I'm Honduran and the guy from @V Dinasty video 22:17 doesn't seem honduran, but more like Dominican or Cuban. Otherwise, everything else is right, we do replace the "s" with the English "h" sound and we use a lot of "ch" words. Like many others mentioned, we speak a lot like our brothers and sisters from El Salvador. Greetings! 🇭🇳

100% tally for me. Got them all correct.

Bueno la verdad, aunque todos sean entendibles, ni idea de reconocer de dónde es cada uno, de pronto mi contacto cultural como Colombiano es más con los países suramericanos, de suramérica si reconozco a cada persona con su forma de hablar y el léxico que cada país utiliza. Hay que tener cuidado porque cada país tiene sus propias regiones y en cada región se habla diferente, yo como santandereano hablo diferente de como habla un rolo, un caleño, un llanero, un pastuso, un costeño, de hecho en la costa caribe hay variedades de acentos, y absolutamente todos somos Colombianos, pero tenemos nuestra variedad de acentos, esto sucede en cualquier país del mundo creería yo

Fíjate que con los colombianos a veces hay malentendidos gracias a la jerga centroamericana. Soy de Honduras. Tengo amigos colombianos. Se morían de la risa cuando yo les contaba cómo se arrechaba mi abuela cuando pasaban los cipotes bolos en sus carros haciendo bulla con los radios bien fuertes Cada viernes en la tarde. Es que en mi país, arrecharse quiere decir enojarse. En el tuyo, ya sabes que quiere decir. jajaja Malentendidos. Por si no lo sabes, si potes son niños o jóvenes, bolos son borrachos, y bulla es ruido. Saludos!

@@philomelodia De pura casualidad de la región de Colombia donde yo nací (Santander, ya no vivo allá), "arrecharse" significa lo mismo que en tu país, en Santander tiene tres posibles significados: 1. Ponerse bravo, ejemplo: Ese tipo se arrechó cuando le cortaron el agua porque si la había pagado. 2. Una persona con cualidades o fuerza sobre humana, ejemplo: Que vieja tan arrecha, levantó ese bulto ella sola. 3. Algo muy difícil de hacer, ejemplo: Esa joda está muy arrecha mano, ninguno de nosotros fue capaz de hacerlo. Pero si en general tienes razón, en el resto de Colombia la palabra "arrecho" tiene es una connotación de tipo sexual

I think you mean it's the only central American nation WITHOUT a Caribbean coast. El Salvador is all in the Pacific Ocean.

I m Salvadoran, I live in Andalucía,Spain. Very hard to understand Andaluces haha. I am learning French with your method. Short stories in French and teach yourself!

Hola! Que bonito que Honduras sea mencionada en videos como este. Mencionó 2 acentos de 2 etnias. Pero aún faltaron muchos. En la isla de Roatan hablan muy diferente tienen un acento muy britanico y otros caracol. En la.zona Norte cambiamos la S por J en algunas palabras, por ejemplo Jan Pedro. En la zona centro en Tegucigalpa hablan un poco más afresonado y abrevian bastante las palabras por ejemplo gasolinera = la gaso. En el Sur se habla muy parecido a Nicaragua o El Salvador. En el occidente tienen un acento muy parecido al de Guatemala. Pero hay 2 lugares que tienen su propio acento en Olancho hablan bien golpeado y hasta casi ofensivo con bastante sarcasmo y en con un volumen alto y hay un silbido cuando usan palabras con S. En Santa Barbara tienen otro acento más suelto más a pueblo pero fino y agradable. Además en esa región es donde están las mujeres más bellas la gente más trabajadora y creativa.

25:19 as being Panamanian i could relate to some things, its really fun to hear you talking about latin American accents!

En Centroamérica se emplea el [ voseo ] como en Argentina, Uruguay y Paraguay. Excelente video.

I was born, raised and lived in El Salvador (Santa Ana) never in my 23 years living there I heard “Utualito” nor never called myself a “Guanaco” Also o a side note, I think we use the 3 “Tu, vos and usted” Tú is used when you talk to someone your age but don’t have that trust to say “Vos” I’ve noticed that most people that uses “Tú” a lot to someone that they know it’s usually because you either like or feel attracted to that person, you don’t wanna sound too informal saying vos but also not too formal using “usted” basically how would you treat you crush
