    Some Puerto Rican’s on the island say “muyayo” and I always thought it was them trying to be funny making up slang. That’s crazy!

    Listening from USA. Trying to learn Spanish and especially Puerto Rican Spanish (I listen to a lot of regeaton) and I thought this could be interesting based on how similar the dialects are. Appreciate this video

    Please make more of these videos! My family were Canarian but I wasn't taught Spanish as a New Yorker. I'm trying to learn the dialect but finding limited resources. This was a great video and your style of informing is super helpful!

    Coño es verda que el español de la Canaria es parecido al Caribeño por que suena como mita Cubano y Puertorriqueño. El Castellano Central me suena a mi bien extraño mientra que el Canariense ni tanto.

    Hence why the Caribbean has totally different Spanish compared to those in Central America. Many Caribbeans ancestry can trace to the Canary Islands.

    Aquí tienes a un canario dispuesto a "echarte un cable" cuando lo necesites, en tu mayor comprensión de nuestras particularidades al hablar.
    Te dejo este rápido comentario, que a esta hora ya tengo "jilorio" y me espera un buen "papeo". ;-)

    Great job. Pan and pang are both nasal. N is apico-alveolar at the front. NG is dorso-velar at the back. Compare sin/sing fan/fang in English. The I in sin and the A in fan are nasalized. Compare fin/fix fan/fax.

    Learnt Spanish at school a lifetime ago 😂 been living in Tenerife for 4 years and we definitely don't use vosotros,, ustedes is the correct word here, although I have been using the more informal "you/tú) here and people are not offended, they can tell you are a foreigner from a mile away 😂. The one expression I didn't know about when I moved here was "que tal" basically "how are you doing?" A must know when you visit!/

    Pottsblitz just another german who moved from Dortmund to Tenerife. So langsam können wir einen Laden aufmachen. Y mas una inglaterrorista perfectamente hablando Castellano. You should do an education video for all your fellow youtubers how to correctly pronounce "guerilla".
    Ich habe recht schnell meine perfekte Toledo Aussprache aufgegeben. The Canarios mistook me being from the mainland. Usando mi accente aleman causa los Canarios hablar mas claro por su parte; y un poquito mas lento tambien. Aber ich habe noch nie jemanden "ustedes" Kurzform von vuestra merced (your Grace/ Euer Gnaden) benutzen hören. In a shop I would be adressed by caballero, and if I would try to be polite to s/o I know I would use Don Ricardo por ejemplo. Ach übrigens; Glückwunsch zum Klassenerhalt!

    the pronunciation of pan as pang is familiar to me, and i have never spent any time in spain proper, only in catalunya. @ 22:16 arveja, could this be from the german "Erbse"? the germans were a seafaring nation once

    • @RichieZero
      @RichieZero  Před 2 lety +2

      I think "Erbse" and "arveja" have the same Latin root. "Ervilla" is pea in Latin apparently, also "ervilha" in Portuguese. Middle German "arwiz", "erbiz".

    Why does Canarian sound more clear than Cuban/Puerto Rican? Is it the prevalence of more slang in the Caribbean?

    • @randomvideos_658
      @randomvideos_658 Před rokem +1

      Because of the migration of spaniards from canary islands to cuba andpuerto rico,most cubans have a very recent connection to Spain.

      We understand standard Spanish. The accent varies in each country, and in Tenerife, particularly in rural areas or areas with lower levels of education, it can be harder to understand. However, in the south, the hotel workers are usually not from Tenerife. You'll be ok, don't worry
