The Flavors of Spanish While Spanish is considered one of the easiest languages to learn, it is certainly not spoken the same everywhere. People from Mexico City (chilangos) speak Spanish with a slower pace, accentuating the final syllable of a word or phrase with a higher pitch, and an elongated sound. Northern Mexicans (norteños) have a distinct twang in their accent and draw heavily on American English A little Italian spice? Argentines, particularly those from Buenos Aires (porteños) have a distinct vocabulary and an accent that is heavily influenced by Italian. Apparently, people from Ecuador are always angry! (Ecuatorianos) speak a louder, more brash Spanish than their neighbors. They also gesticulate a lot. Brasil? Los Brasileños speak Portuguese of course. With style.
