Time for a lesson. In every language, there are differences when you travel to different countries that speak it. Different accents, spellings, and slang. The Spanish language is very widely spoken. The Spanish in Spain is different than the spanish in Mexico. Mexican Spanish is totally different from Venezuelan Spanish. Sometimes, these people that speak the same language, have a hard time understanding each other. This is the same with the different dialects of any language. Chinesse, French, and even English. You have American, British, and Australian versions of English, not to mention the versions of it that are floating around in other countries. There are even different dialects of English within England. People from London speak differently from people from Wales. Just a lesson from this Tri-Lingual chick over here in Arizona. I can't beleive I actually had reason to, and took the time to write this post.
