It's a bit of a meme for us Spanish-speakers to poke fun of the Chilean accent. The people in the videos you saw where talking normally, and thus wouldn't be a problem for anyone to understand them, but their slang is something else. Every so often, we get a viral video of a Chilean delighting us with a barrage of utterly incomprehensible slang spoken in a mind boggling speed. The best thing is, if you aren't already familiar with Chilean slang, comprehension drops straight to zero, no matter if you're also a Spanish speaker. (One from a couple of years back was "flaite ql se enoja y se transforma en Eminem" here on KZread) In my experience, Chileans themselves are aware of this and are playful about it, joining the rest of us on the joke that Chilean should be considered it's own language 😅

Yeah, I was saying, in the first video is talking in slow motion and in the second video they're trying to go slower because the question is slower. (I think the girl with the mic is colombian). If I speak with someone and I notice a different accent, I "try" to go slower too. [Sometimes like a unconscious reaction, to be honest, it's not that I'm nice =P]. But if I speak with another chilean I'd go like 2x in the speed settings of youtube, in comparison to the people in the video.

I’m not Chilean, but I find some characteristics of Chilean Spanish in general tend to be they have a lot of weakened consonants. The S is just one of them, but intervocalically you’ll hear them drop (or nearly drop) other consonants as well, such as D. For example “cansado” => “cansa’o” and even between words “a donde” => “a ‘onde”. Furthermore a lot of voiceless consonants stops seem to have voiced tendencies, especially intervocalically. The tldr is from my perspective they speak really fast and run all their words together using the acceleration powers of consonant weakening. Add to this fact their unique slang and even some unique Chilean verb conjugations (there are some interesting shenanigans going on in the 2nd person conjugations, for example “tú hablas” => “tú(vos?) hablái”) and you can see how all the little differences start to add up and make this accent particularly interesting. One of my favorite Spanish accents for sure!

As a Spaniard, I sometimes struggle understanding the Chileans, especially when they use slang and speak very rapidly.

I really enjoyed the film, it has a fine sense of humor.

There's registers and Chileans switch between them depending on who they're speaking to, if they belong to the same social group, family, at work, etc. If the film was made for an international audience, then it would have less chilenoismos. But I'm not surprised you ordinarily have difficulty understanding Chileans. I'd spend summers in Chile and when going to university did a paper on the spanish language and stumbled on a poetry book from about [the time of the] discovery of the Americas written in common every day Spanish. Its called "La Lengua Florida", if you want to read it. I was befuddled at how similar some of it was to informal Chilean Spanish. Que querí, como estaí and things like that. The thing is, spanish in Spain has changed but in some remote parts of the world it hasn't changed as much, thus the comprehension difficulty some Spanish speakers have with it. There's other peculiarities such as the suffix "do" being pronounced as "ao", which in my research ive noted Leonese and I believe Austurian has, as well as Portuguese. I can't see it coming from Portuguese though, but can see it coming from spanish settlers that weren't from Andalusia, as what most attribute Latin American spanish to, perhaps from León or Austurias. That aside, I get a kick out of listening to rural Spanish southerners. I can pick up on a lot of funny non-standard pronunciations and wordings that I ordinarily think of as Chilean. Not everything though, but a surprising amount. Check out Nazaret Martín C. On KZread. I laugh a lot when watching her videos. In any case. If you understood the film you mentioned, because it didn't have the actors pronounce the suffix "do", as "ao", didn't exasperate the S, replace quieres with querí, estai, 'pa 'ca, pa' 'ya, then it wasn't in Chilean Spanish. I'm sure that may come as a surprise to you. FYI, "Ven pa' 'ca, pa' 'ya, pa' 'riva, pa' bajo y pa' to'o la'os" is Chilean Spanish. I doubt that Chilean film's dialogue was in that form. Or am I wrong?

@@boxerfencer Thank you for your message! You know? We do also say "Ven pa' 'ca, pa' 'ya, pa' 'riba, pa' bajo y pa' to'o la'os" in Spain. In spoken language we often say "cansao" and not "cansado" or "cansá" and not "cansada", "pa qué" instead of "para qué", "na" instead of "nada". It's quite common and use it myself, I don't have a problem with such kind of things. Also the different verb endings are fine. What I personally find difficult is mixing some slang with the language "music". When Chileans speak very fast, I could compare it to a typewriter. They cut the syllables very short. A good example of this is the film "Machuca", which I can oly recommend. When people in the film get furious and yell at each other, saying lots of words in the less amount of time possible... well, there you have it :) Yeah, I know Nazaret Martín. I think Ismael Lemais' channel could be also interesting for you. There you can enjoy good Sevillian Spanish.

Debuccalization-a phenomenon which occurs in many languages. Ancient Greek went through a phase in which [s] debuccalised to [h] in certain positions-then in intervocalic positions sometimes lost completely (and vowels lengthened to compensate). Hence from the same original root Latin _septem_ for number VII (7) is equivalent to Greek «ἑπτά» (heptá). Tuscan Italian pronunciation in some cases debuccalises [k] to [h] e.g. «la casa» is realized as [la ˈhaːsa]. Ukrainian debuccalises [g] to [h] in pronunciation of the Cyrillic letter «Гг», one of the most obvious pronunciation/transliteration differences from Russian phonology-so the old English city name derived from Russian «Кривой Рог» _Krivoy Rog_ becomes Ukrainian-derived «Кривий Ріг» _Kryvyi Rih_ in more recent transliteration/pronunciation.

Hey! Chilean living in Milan here. Yes, we do drop the "s" in between and at the end of words (always). When we add them, it becomes a struggle and extremely formal (so much that not even in the news or at work it is used). Regarding the "r", it is indeed pronunced very soft in comparison to other countries. I noticed something quite interesting here in Italy. I happen to work in an international environment where there are other Chileans. One day, I was talking to a Peruvian guy, and then I switched to speak to my Chilean colleague. Right after this, my Italian colleague from Bari told me my accent changed completely and it was similar to southern Italian but using weird words! The Milanese guys told me the same. Apparently, we Chileans know that we speak weird, and we tend to speak more formal when talking to foreigners (I've heard this many times). If you want to experience the true Chilean, make two of us talk together! So cool that you did this video haha

Indeed, we usually drop the "s" and sometimes we cut words short. The thing that I think was crucial about our way of speaking and neither of the videos represented is the use of the word "wea" and all it's different grammatical variations. It has forms to act as a sustantive, adjetive, verb , synonym for testicle, etc. Hope you consider checking some of the more "accentuated" examples that there are in youtube.

Hello noblest one! I'm from Santiago, Chile. The dropped S in the first video is heavily accentuated, you would find that in rural areas and informal speech. Also we ommit a lot of consonants in specific scenarios (R, D, B, N, M, L...). For example, as you suggested, the word Carne would be something like Canne. The thing with Chilean is the speed and the exaggerated number of idioms and slangs we use that no one else understands. Greetings, love from 🇨🇱!!

This is a surprise to me 😊 We are like the Scottish. James McAvoy said once that in public, he is British, but in private he is Scottish. We chileans tend to speak differently in formal and informal situations. Our informal speech is actually being recognized as a dialect in the sense that it has a unique slang and pronunciation and is almost imposible to understand without some level of instruction. Many people with formal Spanish training complain about that. I recommend you to search for a book named "How to survive in the Chilean jungle", it was written by a US journalist who lived here in Chile, must be somewhere in the internet. I also recommend you to search for the book "Bestiario del Reyno de Chile", it's a cartoon book depicting our way to speak. My best regards!

That's true, it sort of turns into an 'h'. And actually not all 's' are dropped, just the ones at the end of a word or before a consonant. The 's' before a vowel is always spoken, like in 'casa', 'paraiso', 'observar','persona'.

The historical reason for the C and Z pronunciation in Latin America is because it is the old pronunciation of southern Spain (and even some small pockets in the south still speak like this) and when the colonisation of the Americas began it was mostly southerners that went to America, so when the pronunciation of Spanish became standardised into the Castilian pronunciation in Spain the changes never occurred in the American colonies.

Hello Metatron! I'm from Argentina and I have been living in Catania for almost 20 years. The Chilean accent is one of the most difficult to understand. They speak really fast. The most faithful accent among those you heard is the one from the boy who reads the story of the little birds. (the verb is "contar", the story "cuento"). During the interview they obviously speak more slowly, perhaps because they have to think about the answers. The slang at the beginning is used only in Chile, but it is common among Spanish-speaking countries, each of us has our own. I know some of the Chilean slang because Argentina is very close and because when I was a teenager I watched the Chilean soap operas that I loved 😅. In spoken Spanish it is very common not to pronounce some sounds, obviously there are exceptions. You have to keep in mind that the South American countries are very large and each region has its own accent and slang, but we still understand each other, and some times you just have to ask. I am from the province of Córdoba and our accent is completely different from the rest of the country, we lengthen the syllable before the accented one and when we speak many times we do not pronounce the s.

Chilean here, most of the words you did not understand are slang that is only seen here in my country, it can get very confusing, especially when spoken quickly; even to other Chileans, another common thing here is to shorten or abbreviate words, usually removing some letters or words ( For example, instead of saying "aDonde fue?" we would say "aonde fue?" or "ea una idea" instead of "eRa una idea" ), especially the more south you go, I hope this short explanation is of use, cheers!

Hey, nice that you kept going with the series. The woman conducting the interviews is indeed Colombian, and her accent is most likely from Bogotá. Also, the verb is "contar". In Spanish, if I remember correctly, that transformation from latin -o to -ue happened only in tonic -o, so it's "yo 'cuen.to," "tú 'cuen.tas", "él/ella 'cuen.ta," but "nosotros con.'ta.mos", "vosotros con.'táis".

Can the Spanish speakers correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the reason the Central/South American varieties of Spanish pronounce the "c" as an "s" instead of the "th" because a lot of the early Spanish came from a variety of Spanish in Spain that pronounced it that way? I think I read or heard that because they used sailors and colonists from a certain region...it was the dominant Spanish brought over?

All this in the capital city Santiago. In the South of the country you'll have an accent of "huasos", they are part of the countryside and in the North of Chile you'll have different accents influenced by Bolivia and Perú. Chilean people will laugh a lot if you make a video listening to the "flaites" against the "cuicos". We make jokes about that all the time. Thanks for reading my comment. I'll let you know anything you wanna know from Chile. Greetings and congrats for your channel! Great content.

Chilean slang is derived from "Huaso" speak, Huasos being the class of rural farmers and ranchers that emerged from the Spanish colonial days to this day, it contains lots of terms and references to field work, animal husbandry and general country life that not even most Chileans reflect on consciously. The urban derivate of it found on the poorer towns and neighborhoods is called "flaite" and is contrasted with the high-class, educated "cuico", both words are also used as positive and negative qualifiers depending on the context.

apparently one would say that "te emboló el video" in this instance XD

I am Chilean, it is true that we have certain idioms such as speaking very quickly, for the same reason sometimes the last letter like the "s" is not heard very well, others prefer to remove them. They say that Chileans speak badly, and others do not see big differences. The accent depends on each area of ​​the country, I am from the south, and our accent is more elongated as if in each sentence we "sing"

Hello from Chile! As you mention, in the news and everything that involves television and corporate videos (aka formal language) you can hear a perfect Spanish accent, in fact, some of the best Spanish dubbing studios have been in Chile for a long time. On the other hand, if you go to buy something in a minimarket in the afternoon and you meet 3 or 4 South American guys inside the place, they will all know exactly where they come from because of their accent, it would not be easy for a foreigner to decipher it. . Greetings!

So you have chosen the path of pain! And, yes, in formal speaking (and the news) there's "seseo", which is pronouncing every "s", speaking more slowly, avoiding idioms or vulgar terminology, etc.

Informal Chilean Spanish..

Hola Metatron!! llevo siguiendo tu canal hace mucho y ¡me alegra ver que decidiste hacer un video de mi pais !!! le acertaste bastante en tus suposiciones, pareciera que la S nos da flojera pronunciarla además tenemos prácticamente un segundo leguaje respecto a las "slang words" , podría mandarte videos de la televisión chilena donde estoy seguro no entenderías nada, incluso si fueras chileno cuesta entender jajaja, sin duda, somos muy especiales para hablar personalmente lo atribuyo a que históricamente siempre hemos sido una isla atrapados entre la cordillera de los andes, el océano pacifico, la Antártica y el desierto de atacama mucha de nuestra cultura se diferencia del resto de Latinoamérica, espera cuando descubras como se hablan en partes del sur del país o incluso en el extremo sur cerca de la antartica de donde yo soy.

love the video, keep doing this tipes of videos, they are great¡¡¡ Gretings from Valdivia, Chile.

In addition to the s, Chileans also drop the d's a lot at the end of words and with the suffix -ado, so "ciudad" (city) becomes "ciudá" and "casado" (married) becomes "casao". I find this interesting because it makes it closer to Italian, like "ciudá" = "città", "humanidá" = "umanità". Another distinct feature is the addition of indigenous words from the language of the Mapuche, Mapudungun, like pololo = boyfriend, guata = belly, and pichintún = pinch/very small portion, to name a few.

Spettacolare! Thanks for making this video. This accent is fascinating. Used to work with Chileans and I have a deep admiration for Chile and its people. BTW, you should also make a video about varieties of Central American Spanish. IMHO, Salvadoran, Honduran and Nicaraguan Spanish are quite similar to me. Whilst Guatemalan, Costa Rican and Panamanian varieties are way different. Regards!

I'm a colombian living in Chile for 12 years now, i really had fun with this video. It was recommended by the algorithm i don't know why, got interested by the tshirt and the hair tbh but stayed. So far haven't stopped smiling, you have a very good ear. Congrats. ☺️ Colombian spanish is pretty easy hahaha.

Thank you! I am a Chileno. living in the USA. you are so accurate. I went to Miami at the age of 14... Chilean spanish its so diferent than even then. people from LATAM that couldn't understand my Spanish. your skills are GOD.

I'm a gringo trying to understand Spanish as much as possible. Once I came across a group of women chatting away in beautiful, clear Spanish, just like it is written, and I was surprised how much I understood.

Ecuador, Bolivia and Peru speak spanish quite well and easy for someone who is trying to learn the languaje.

Do Equatorial Guinea Spanish

I am Chilean and most of the times people, myself included, don't pronounce the "s" but it depends on the person you're talking to because we have many different "accents", for example, I have never heard anyone in my circle say "do" instead of "dos" unless they're talking really fast lol but overall chilean spanish has a lot of mannerisms and "chileanisms" which can make it harder for other natives to understand and people here are proud of it, our differences makes everyone unique and interesting after all 🥰

Here in Chile (or Cile a l'Italia), at first it may seem the 'S' disappears, but is replaced with a mute 'H'. 'Loh cabroh', or 'this guys', because we are still exhaling and producing the muted sound for the 'S' time (compressed time in chilean, yes). Knowing that, it will be more natural than simply cutting the 'S'. Very helpful this series, grazie mile per il tuo canale!

In Argentina and Uruguay they also drop /s/ before consonants. When the 's' is between vowels they pronounce it. Between two words, when first one ends with an 's' and another starts with a vowel (or silent "h") they also pronounce it. For instance you could expect from most Argentinians to pronounce 'los hombres' as 'los hombre', not 'lo-hombre', so in this case it's similar to French. However I noticed that many singers from say Chile and Argentina pronounce every 's' in their songs.

you actually nailed a lot of the things that make our dialect stand out, but the "carne" thing surprised me the most because in fact we, in informal speech, drop the "r"s sometimes and say some things like "can-ne" (for "carne") or "paht-te" (for "parte"). other characteristics of the Chilean accent are the tendency to pronounce the "tr"s like "chr"s, for example "mechro" for "metro", which curiously enough is something present only in some Chilean accents (yup, accents, because within the macro-chilean accents there are different accents for different social classes and in different areas, like in the north -influenced by Andean languages and accents-, countryside, south (influenced by the mapuche people in some cases) and "far south" (influenced by the "gaucho" accents or even argentinian, a bit)

Como siempre, super interesante! As I said in another message, you are a great phonetician, probably because of your musical background, if I am not mistaken. The aspirated "s" phenomenon actually comes from southern Spain (Extremadura, Andalucía, and Canary Islands) and spread from there to the Americas, particularly the lowlands. In the highlands of Mexico (New Spain), Perú and Colombia (New Granada) the pronunciation was more "aristocratic" because they were the seats of the Viceroys, surrounded by high officials, chrch dignataries, etc. The Mexican highland pronunciation is the exact opposite of the Chilean, as I think you noticed, in the sense that they pronounce each s very clearly, "Sien peSoS" = 100 pesos vs "Sien pesoH". Re Chile and Italy, back in the 70s, there were many Chileans in Italy, inclduing the great poet Pablo Neruda, as documented in the film "Il postino". Also the musical group Inti Illimani = Tierra Roja. "El pueblo unido, ...... "

I’m from Chile and your understanding is impressive, so good. By the way, we have different accents so it’s hard even for us 🧡

Raff I was having a blast seeing you discover certain pronunciations that almost all New World Spanish has. That being said many variaties of New World Spanish drops the ending S/Z and in Puerto Rico for example you can change the R in between words into L. You gonna have so much fun going through the Carribean. Btw what makes Chilean Spanish hard is their slang which I did not understand one lick in that initial video. You needed to watch some other clips of actual Chilean on the streets talking in their slang to get the true Chilean Spanish experience and you along with other Spanish speakers will have been lost. Trust me I seen clips and it's almost unintelligible for me.

Please do a video reacting to Venezuelan Spanish!! (It's Caribbean Spanish with influences from Portuguese and Italian and of course English)

Best regards from Chile Metratron, thanks for this content!

We are the best country of Chile brother. Now try to watch a Beni the Italian videos, since hear chileans speaking the way we do it is one thing, but an Italian with his accent doing it, specially with our signature insults words, is out of this world (look for his Enchufa or Callampa songs). If you truly want to do the ultimate challenge of trying to hear chilean country side people or gangsters conversations, look for Dagoberto Majaji or the Clínica Dávila videos, this one has subtitles but still is an ultimate task (this is what we call "mandarin chilean").

Can an italian understand Minion's language?

Chile mentioned~! i see that you struggled with some things in this video, so i will try my best to give some more context. 2:10 - Yes, in a formal context people tend to avoid drop the S, because in informal contexts Chileans tend to talk quicker than other spanish accents. 4:00 - nope, they are unique dialects on chilean spanish, or how we call it "Chilensis" it even became a meme that we talk another different language because of that if you want a transaltion: Estoy pato --> I'm duck (this originated on the countryside, when a person search his pockets for money and then take it out, that looked like a duck flapping his wings) Estai puro dando jugo --> When a guest come over to your house and you have nothing to talk with him, to avoid the awkward silence and to kill some time you offer them something to drink, in Chile is usually water, tea or the most common, Juice; that's why we say "you're just giving juice" because it means "You are making me lose my time" Voi al tiro --> I'll go in a quick shot, self explainatory Chicotea los caracoles! --> "Chicoteo" is the act of hitting an animal with a piece of leather called "Chicote" to make the animal go faster, the phrase "Chicotea los caracoles" or "make your snails go faster" is a phrase that suggest than the user is riding a cart pulled by snails, basically somebody is saying "You are going too slow, hurry up" to you. La raja --> it means "That was great" if it is applied to an event like a party or semthing, and if it is applied to an action or object it means "It's fantastic" the origin of the phrase is unknown at least for me, careful "raja" in spanish alone means "ass" in a vulgar sense XD Me embole --> "Dar bola" is the act of polish someone's else's shoes, when the polisher is cleaning and applying grease to the shoes the movement of the cloth is usually pretty quick and tend to go anywere, so when someone says "me embole" it means "my brains tangled" (note: this is mostly an hipothesis) me fui en la profunda ---> "my mind went deep on that" Puta la wea --> is closer to say "F*ck" actually, the word "wea" is actually very flexible, it can be used to describe a lot of things (always in a vulgar way of course XD) 9:50 - yes, the interviwer has a colombian accent 10:53 - lol, you got it, Chileans tend to do that quite a lot 11:13 - it depends on the region, because Chileans tend to talk a liittle different depending on the region, more than dropping the A's a lot of chileans usually speak without charging our voices too much, which makes it sound somewhat muffled. Final thoughts: Chilean spanish or "Chilensis" is a unique dialect, one that is hardly to undestand for a multitude of factors, the isolation that the cordillera de los andes provided the region, the popularization of puerto riccan music and the weird fashion of trying to copy the puerto riccan accent, the presence of the coa (prision dialect) in santiago, etc; but that doens't make it less interesting, like chilean people it has multitude of things that makes every piece of it unique~

We mexicans pronounce all the letters, except for very few regional accents in small areas of the country. But all the other spanish speaking countries drop, aspirate or change some letter in large parts of their countries, usually the S but also the R, D, Y, LL or others; even spaniards aspirate the S. I don't know the reason, it's kinda weird because spanish is supposed to be phonetic, they shouldn't change or drop phonemes.

@@xleplex7070 Yeah, that happens naturally, BUT we can artificially keep the right phonemes through the right education, in order to keep the language from becoming a mess. The proof is Mexico, we don't change letters at least in 97% of the country, and we are the most populated spanish speaking country, by a long shot, almost three times the population of the next one. If we can do it, they can do it.

2:10 I am from Chile, and yes, they do not drop the S in the news, or aspirate the D or anything, formal speech we talk normally, and it is also a sign of education (which most of has). The only characteristic that we keep both formally and informally is the idioms, those are very weird. We also use a lot of the hand signs italians use, although that's a little bit old fashioned now, I don't know why really, but older people understand 99% of the signs in your italian hand sign video from a few years ago. EDIT: we drop the v/b or change it to u (this is actually a medieval spanish characteristic that we kept), we don't drop rs either, we just tap them lightly.

I'm argentinian and even I have a hard time with chilean accent sometimes, It's a pretty funny accent too I like it because it makes it cousy.

This is great. Now, you know what? Try Peruvian. Most Peruvians take pride in having a "neutral accent", the clearest accentless Latin American variety. Nothing further from the truth, of course. I am Peruvian and am a linguistics enthusiast and when I bring Peruvian Spanish features to their attention, some of them kinda start pondering the matter a bit more seriously but most just stay in denial... I wonder how the Peruvian audience may react to someone like Metatron trying to understand Peruvian Spanish. Much love from Peru, Metatron!

Chilean here. Loved your video, very on point i'd say. I think most comments to the video are on point as well. Chilean slang is indeed the issue. And over the last couple of decades it has developed wide and wild. Not an expert on the matter, but it seems to me it correlates with the arise of needs and means of expressing socioeconomical problems. I say this becase chilean slang seems to works as a way of excluding certain parties from understanding a conversation, as a way of drawing a line. Some part of it comes from criminal activities or prison slang also known as "Coa" (huge percent of this dimension is imported from argentinian slang called "Lunfardo"), but the rest, as i mentioned, has been invented recently. I bet half the population in Santiago would have serious trouble understanding deep La Pintana slang. I'm not sure i would. Very creative people. Chances they invented a new word as you read this comment.

I'm Chilean. And yes, we say 'cahne' instead of 'carne'. And as you correctly spotted, we omit not only the 's' but sometimes the 'r' or other letters as well. We kind of speak a compressed version of Castillian, close to the variety spoken in Andalucía, south of Spain

The S in coda is not dropped but aspirated. For a chilean, "lo feo" and "los feos" aren't pronounced the same. You can only completely drop the S if there was an aspiration before denoting the plural. Example: "los viejos" can become "loH viejo" but never "lo viejo".

Chile is such a great country. Wish I could visit some day. Greetings form Kong Zep Zion - South Korea

I'm from argentina! all the stuff you dont understand are very specific chilean slang. it's very hard for us too! I like it cause it sounds funny

This video is going viral just wait, I know Chilean people, they're also quality people, cheers from Puente alto, Denmark

you are right about the "not pronouncing the S", which sounds rather like an aspired H, and also about a very soft R in many places (not all!), and about the fast talking, although these guys were talking kind of slow or super slow because they were interviewed by a Colombian. The second half of words, especially if it ends with a consonant is also silent. If you would have to try to understand fast slang it would be like me knowing standard Italian and trying to understand Siciliano, Salentino or Napoletano/Abruzzese. In order to really get the right impression about informal Chilean speech you should listen to a group of Chileans talking together in school, on the street, at a party. "CH" many times changes into "SH" (like in Cuba and Andalucia) BUT it is a clear marker of social strata, since it disappears according to your education (I would NEVER use it and never have to even think about it). And of course this is informal speech, which will also vary according to social strata, age, and familiarity (no major regional variations in Chilean Spanish, as is common in other Latin American countries, e certamente comme in Italia). Many say "we speak so bad Spanish", which is of course absurd, because you should never feel ashamed about your regional dialect. BUT "to speak well" means to know how to use a rich vocabulary and to know when to use which form of language, something I think younger generations tend to forget, (a side-effect of the "egalitarian" myth = political correctness), which I HATE since it misses completely the point. Social media and a lack of reading skills are also introducing major changes, and it is quite alarming that a very high percentage does not really understands what they are reading!! (this of course implies really "bad Spanish")!

wena weon por la cresta. Yes the interviewer sounds Colombian, and yes we contract and mute a lot of consonants an turn others to different sounds. Actually the mute "S" at the end of words and even in between, we turn it to just a throat "breath" almost. From person to person these can even change subtly, so you have a lot of different accents in Chile. The lower less educated people are really difficult to understand, even for us sometimes. Greetings from Chile!!

I am an Australian but born and educated in Chile. The interviewer is Colombian. Please note that dropping de S is very common, even in Spain. The most noticeable difference is the C vs S. This is inherited from the colonies made predominantly of Canary Islanders and Andaluces. Even today, they use el "seseo" or pronouncing de C like an S. No latinamerican country pronounces the C like in Madrid. Also, like in all countries, the formal Spanish used in official government communications and universities are understood by all Spanish-speaking people. Another widely known issue is the difference between V and B. In Chile no matter where you go, they cannot pronounce the B with the lips touching, they pronounce it like a V Chile was the last country to be colonised by the Spanish; therefore the linguistic influences are somewhat different from the Caribbean islands and Mexico

Chileans are aware that they speak very fast and tend to slow down when speaking with foreigners. Also we tend to "neutralize" our dialect. I think that's what happened in this interview. I feel they were talking at 0.5x speed 😂

I did understand everything!! Saludos desde Chile

This was really interesting for me, as I when I moved to Italy actually spent a lot of time with a group of Chilean friends. Because we would switch between Italian and Spanish, depending on who else was there, for a while I picked up their accent. When speaking Italian. One thing I noticed I found myself doing was sort of roller coaster effect through the sentence, shooting up to a high note when emphasising a word, specially near the end of a sentence. So a statement like 'Questo vino è ottimo!', the 'ottimo' would come out as a kind of final squawk. It took me a few months to get that under control and disenchilificare my Italian.

"We are the best country of Chile bro" 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
