Yes, a great video but it has to be said that Mexican Spanish is the most important Spanish in the world as Mexico is largest country where spanish is spoken and Mexico is where most media (TV (Series, soap operas, programs), movies and music are produced and distributed to more than 140 countries everyday. I lived in Australia and I saw Mexican soap operas in public TV as well as soccer games.
@@buronti6941 no, es real. Cuando alguien de latino america que no es Mexicano intenta imitar nuestro acento incluso me resulta molesto porque suena como si se estuvieran burlando y con el no es el caso.

Los de centro y sur cargan tambien tonalidades de las diversas lenguas indígenas. Los del norte hablan más golpeado. No hay un solo acento mexicano, o los demás no somos mexicanos? Pff
Ví este video por curiosidad, Está muy chingón tu acento ojalá ayudes a muchos estadounidenses a mejorar su español. Yo hago justo lo mismo para aprender inglés. Saludos y mucho éxito.
Your advise is quite useful, nonetheless any native could easily tells that you still have an accent, but when it has to do with communication, that is not relevant. If you speak clealy as you do it is what really matters. Congrats.
I grew up learning Spanish in Miami and learned more of a Cuban accent. I didn't even know I had that until I went to Spain. People kept asking if I was Cuban. It really is about the Spanish you consume.
I dont know what im doing watching a tutorial to how to speak as a mexican, since Im mexican, but this guy has really nailed it, he has a good enough accent !!
It goes the same way for English. What you said about Mexican music is what my abuela did to learn English. She was born in Mexico and learned English by listening to American music, watching American movies and media. She spoke the most perfect English I heard anyone speak. She was an angel. RIP Abuela.
It's funny, but I was speaking with a girl from Peru yesterday, and we switched to Spanish for a few minutes. Well, Spanish peppered with some English. My daughter loved it, because she had never seen her daddy actually speak in another language with other people in public. Mind you, aprendí español en la calle. I never took it in school. I took French. Yeah, I'm that old. She's first learning Spanish in 4th grade (some since Kindergarten), and I thought it would be fun to show her some of your videos. She thought they were very cool, and is now practicing more and more. Her pronunciation needs a boatload of work (the vowels), but she's getting there. Thanks for this channel!
At that age the chance is pretty big that she can develop a native-like accent. I have a friend that moved to my country at 13 and he sounds just like everyone else! I stil can't imagine that he spent his first 13 years so far away from my country judging by how well he speaks! It's like it's his mother tongue. I really suggest you further stimulate your daughter to learn because being able to speak and understand multiple languages is a blessing. Especially in the US, I suppose, where the majority is monolingual.
Most Mexicans don’t speak with a Tapatio accent, I live in California too but the Central Valley and everyone here is from Sinaloa, Michoacán o Jalisco. I have many many friends from all 3 and it’s pretty easy to tell where someone is from just from their accent and how they look.
El acento tapatío no está tan marcado ese es el detalle con el XD pero igual si es cierto que hay muchos lugares donde hay una verdadera diferencia en acento y modismos al punto en el que llega a parecer otro país
Una vez mi cuñada argentina me dijo que a veces se olvida de que no soy argentino. ese fue el cumplido mas significativo que he recibido hasta hoy :) imitation was teh biggest thing for me. i spent so much time repeating my friends or media and it helped so much. and with all that media consumption you start to know how it should sound in your head even though you cant quite do it right. just takes time!

Most Neflix TV Shows & Movies are dubbed in a very standard Spanish that leans very Mexican, but not heavy. This would be a good start. Also Telenovelas are great to capture the feelings, emotions & exaggerations that Mexicans or Latinos in general have. Nate, you do sound very Native. ❤❤

Latinos refer to either an all male or a mixed male and female group. Why are English speakers changing our words? They used those words as loan words like how Japanese people use English loan words.
We mexicans and pretty much every spanish speaker can identify easily the accent we hear and recognize where the person speaking it comes from, and believe me you sound so natural, it is so nice!
Guao al escucharte hablar perfectamente español con tanta naturaleza luego de estar hablando en ingles, me dejo como procesado un buen rato, estaba acostumbrado a que siempre lo pronunciaran raro (tengo unos primos que son de USA, sólo su mama habla español y aun después de enseñarles desde pequeños él idioma, lo hablan bastante raro) es de admirar tu acento tan natural
Nate even grew a mustache to complete his Mexican look🤭 When it comes to accents...what do you want to sound like?...someone from Brooklyn NY, Texas, Nashville ...Down Under...British? Same goes for Spanish.
yo estoy aprendiendo ingles y japones y me encanta ver como otras personas se esfuerzan en hablar y aprender mi idioma, me inspiran ah aprender y esforzarme yo mismo.
Su acento es muy bonito, es neutral. Fácilmente puede decir que es de casi cualquier país de habla hispana y de algunas partes de España. El reggaeton no es "MÚSICA" para aprender español, escuchen baladas románticas 🥰 Me encantó el vídeo.
I'm a native Spanish speaker, and it's amazing how you sound so Mexican that is really hard not to believe it. You even speak Spanish better than many other native people that I know.
Your accent is quite good for a gringo (probably because you started very young, as a child I would guess, which is the key in developing a native-like accent). And if you want to sound even more native, work on your Bs, Ds and Gs between vowels or before L. Change them from occlusive sounds (or stops, where the air stops coming out for a second when you make the sound) to fricative sounds (air comes out constantly when you are making the sound). For example, when you said "hablar," the B sounded like an occlusive, which sounds non-native/gringo to the ear. Try to keep your lips slightly open (almost like a kissy face) so that the air comes out when you are pronouncing the B before the L. The B should sound more like a V. Great job!
Soy maestro de primaria y enseño a los niños a leer. La fundamental es importante, pero la forma en que la ejecutas como un no hablante es increìble. Llegué por curiosidad pero me voy con una buena experiencia
me (mexican) watching this and paying extra attention lol. but you are so right, I grew up listening nothing but english language, music, tv, school, a lot of touristing in the US, somehow I feel more related with US lifestyle, the language grows so much within you, I think in english most of the time, the secret for me was Knowing the alphabet and the rest just came together.
You know Zach, I've been getting a lot of hate on this stache, so I appreciate the question. It's actually just a fake moustache I've taped onto my face permanently.
1 note to add to this video we have many different accents, it all depends on the state you are in, Jalisco, Mexico City, Durango, Sinaloa, etc. but the most normal and easy accents are those from the center of the country (Jalisco, Puebla, Colima, Veracruz, etc.) Those are accents with fewer mannerisms
One thing Nate didn’t mention that I found was huge huge to help with my accent and learning Spanish is reading. Watch Mexican TH-cam videos or just videos in Spanish and then go to the comments and just read the comments. Go online and search something up and just read articles even if you have no idea what it is saying, you need to get that fluidity down with reading entire sentences and paragraphs and articles because if you just say the a couple or few words all the time as a response, you will never learn how to get fluid with speaking Spanish and that fluidity helps you relax and be able to pronounce words better and feel more comfortable when speaking. I do not enjoy reading at all but I read whatever I can in Spanish even if I don’t understand it and I can genuinely read Spanish better than most my Mexican friends, even the ones from Mexico where Spanish is their first language.
I'm Mexican and yeah, English has 20 different vowel sounds and spanish just has 5, they even are just short flat sounds, if you see a vowel, there's just one sound, people from other countries tend to make more than one and I think that's a pretty simple mistake to fix. I actually think that's the most important part of speaking right and not sounding like a "Greeeeengaou".
You nailed it, yes, that's the key to a native spanish pronunciation. Straight forward with the vowels and the "r" sound make it stronger cause in english it is too subtle
Siempre me dió curiosidad cómo les enseñan a hablar español. Qué bueno que remarcaste que son diferentes acentos, y también palabras usadas muy distinto de un pais a otro
Great advice Nate! Years ago we had a German exchange student live with us for a school year. She asked me how she could improve her American accent. I told her to speak German mocking an American tourist speaking with a bad accent. She did that, and we laughed. I said now speak English like that. It was an almost instantaneous improvement. We laughed again! When I haven't spoken Spanish in a while, I get my mouth ready by imitating Slowpoke Rodriguez. "Speedy Gonzales ees a freend of my seester!" LOL!
This is funny, my husband and I both speak Spanish pidgeon. We really don't know Spanish but we have picked up enough to get by. Anyway, my husbaand has a deplorable accent but mine is more Mexican. So when we are in Mexico he will say something, and the person he is taking to will ask me to clarify. I repeat exactly but, I guess I sound better! I should also note that while my family is English and Swiss, I look meztiso to Mexican eyes because I am short and darker skinned. Blond, 6 foot hubby has a harder time!
Bro, your spanish is sooooooo good, hope more gringos come to watch you videos, I live in a town stacked of "expats" not willing to learn the language (most of them)...
I really love how people from the USA get interested in learning Spanish, I'm from Argentina and don't even have the accent even thought I born there and lived there for 17 years haha Keep it going people, I believe is something beautiful trying to learn a new language to either travel and know more places, or to get to know more people and even help them in some cases
Both my parents were raised in Jalisco. My dad was born in Texas but the family returned to Mexico when he was two years old. My Spanish is a function of my Michiganian midwestern accent. There isn't a lot of inflection like someone from Mexico, or more specifically, Jalisco. I used to hate it but I came to accept it. Besides, a very attractive woman in Jalisco once told me she LOVED my accent so at least I have that going for me, which is nice...
A mí se me hace tan difícil aprender otro idioma ... Solo logro aprenderme palabras y una que otra frase ...pero de ahí no paso ... 😭 Que padre por los que como tú tienen la inteligencia de aprender otras lenguas!
“Si te haya gustado” is definitely Mexican Spanish. In Spain, present subjunctive is never used with “si”. It would be “si te ha gustado”. Also, while “si puedas” is perfectly acceptable in Mexico, it would sound wrong to a Spaniard (as they would expect to hear “si puedes”). When I was recently in Mexico, I just substituted “tío” with “güey”, “coger” with “agarrar” or “tomar” and “guay” with “chido” or “padre”, and I got along famously with the Mexicans I spoke with. Although they would look at me funny when I would say “thervetha” instead of “cerveza”. I’m from the US, but I spent enough time in Spain to pronounce certain c's and z's as "th" ... so I seemed to be a gringo with a Spain Spanish accent.
We follow the same rules established by the RAE (real academia Española). Si te haya gustado not only isn’t Mexican spanish, is bad spanish period. Your assertion that bad spanish is perfectly acceptable in Mexico is just wrong.
@@madmex123 I apologize if I was wrong on that point. I’m not an expert in Mexican Spanish. I will say that on Mexican TV shows and in regular conversations with some Mexicans I know, I’ve encountered many situations where “si” is paired with the present subjunctive (si pueda hacerlo …). And also things like “No sé si venga” pop up. That is NEVER heard in Spain. First of all, if a subjunctive is to be used at all with “si”, it would be si + the past subjunctive in a hypothetical statement, like “si tuviera mucho dinero, me compraría un coche”. And saber would not trigger the present subjunctive in any case I know of. However, “si supiera el problema, intentaría resolverlo” is completely correct in Spain. I just made the incorrect assumption that si + present subjunctive was acceptable in Mexico.
@@goldvideo I have a master’s degree in Spanish literature. You trying to teach me Spanish grammar is like me trying to teach Einstein about relativity. I lived in Spain for 6 years and my dad is from Asturias.
@@madmex123 How do youtube comments get so unhinged so quickly? Like the conversation in yt comments goes off the rails way faster than on any other social media. Like 3 comments in and man is already coming out of the gates swinging with "I AM THE EINSTEIN OF ESPAÑOL"
I've been speaking Spanish for over 30 years and living in Mexico City for 20 years, and no matter how well I speak the local dialect of Spanish, people often comment that they know I'm a foreigner because of my "accent." I have light blonde hair, blue eyes, and a very "foreign" body type, shall we say, so I honestly don't think it's my "accent" that's giving me away. When I speak over the phone, people never comment that I have an accent or even ask me where I'm from. I really think that one's physical appearance influences the amount of "accent" others will perceive them to have. What do you think?
YO SOY MEXICANA, PERO NO LO SE COMO HACE EN APRENDER MUY RAPIDO PUES MIS PADRES SON MEXICANOS PERO YO SIEMPRE A VIVIDO EN EUA. Y HABLO MAL ESPAÑOL 😭😭 Y PIENSO QUE LO ESCRIBO MAL AUN.
Tengo algunos amigos hispanoblantes que me dijeron que ellos no tienen un buen entendemiento de la gramática, aunque sus padres no hablan inglés. Para mí, leer libros es una excelente forma de aprender gramática naturalmente.
Mi hermano es medio Cubano y solo puedo hablar un poquito de Español. Es porque su padre, mi padrastro, no hablaba español en casa, porque mi madre y yo no lo hablamos. Probablemente es algo similar para ti. Lo único consejo que puedo darte es escuchar o leer algo en español todos los días, necesitas hacer español una parte de tu vida diaria. Poco a poco tu español mejorará.

We mexicans and pretty much every spanish speaker can identify easily the accent we hear and recognize where the person speaking it comes from, and believe me you sound so natural, it is so nice!
Guao al escucharte hablar perfectamente español con tanta naturaleza luego de estar hablando en ingles, me dejo como procesado un buen rato, estaba acostumbrado a que siempre lo pronunciaran raro (tengo unos primos que son de USA, sólo su mama habla español y aun después de enseñarles desde pequeños él idioma, lo hablan bastante raro) es de admirar tu acento tan natural
Soy como tus primos. Mi acento también es raro. :(
I'm mexican and I'm actually impressed, your accent it's really nice to hear
Nate even grew a mustache to complete his Mexican look🤭
When it comes to accents...what do you want to sound like?...someone from Brooklyn NY, Texas, Nashville ...Down Under...British?
Same goes for Spanish.
yo estoy aprendiendo ingles y japones y me encanta ver como otras personas se esfuerzan en hablar y aprender mi idioma, me inspiran ah aprender y esforzarme yo mismo.
Su acento es muy bonito, es neutral. Fácilmente puede decir que es de casi cualquier país de habla hispana y de algunas partes de España.
El reggaeton no es "MÚSICA" para aprender español, escuchen baladas románticas 🥰 Me encantó el vídeo.
I'm a native Spanish speaker, and it's amazing how you sound so Mexican that is really hard not to believe it. You even speak Spanish better than many other native people that I know.
Love the way you enunciate words. Sounds clear
Its beautiful when i understand the video without the subtittles
Your accent is quite good for a gringo (probably because you started very young, as a child I would guess, which is the key in developing a native-like accent). And if you want to sound even more native, work on your Bs, Ds and Gs between vowels or before L. Change them from occlusive sounds (or stops, where the air stops coming out for a second when you make the sound) to fricative sounds (air comes out constantly when you are making the sound). For example, when you said "hablar," the B sounded like an occlusive, which sounds non-native/gringo to the ear. Try to keep your lips slightly open (almost like a kissy face) so that the air comes out when you are pronouncing the B before the L. The B should sound more like a V. Great job!
Soy maestro de primaria y enseño a los niños a leer. La fundamental es importante, pero la forma en que la ejecutas como un no hablante es increìble. Llegué por curiosidad pero me voy con una buena experiencia
Por lo güero y tú acento, si me hablas en español hubiera pensado que eras de Guadalajara totalmente! 😅 tu acento es muy bueno!
I didn’t know there were those many people interested in a video about how to sound like us. Makes me cry 🥺
Hermano, felicidades, que buen acento...!
Muy agradable de escuchar, un suscriptor mexicano más...!
me (mexican) watching this and paying extra attention lol.
but you are so right, I grew up listening nothing but english language, music, tv, school, a lot of touristing in the US, somehow I feel more related with US lifestyle, the language grows so much within you, I think in english most of the time, the secret for me was Knowing the alphabet and the rest just came together.
Eres un tipazo!! En serio suenas como nosotros. Good Job!!
Tienes un español demasiado bueno. Yo quisiera aprender a hablar inglés y saber todas las reglas gramaticales realmente tienes toda mi admiración 😊
Si hablas español muy bien, felicidades, suenas como alguien de la ciudad de México xD
I'm Mexican and I watch your videos to practice my English you sound good in Spanish,.
Nate how can I get a moustache like that
You know Zach, I've been getting a lot of hate on this stache, so I appreciate the question. It's actually just a fake moustache I've taped onto my face permanently.
1 note to add to this video we have many different accents, it all depends on the state you are in, Jalisco, Mexico City, Durango, Sinaloa, etc. but the most normal and easy accents are those from the center of the country (Jalisco, Puebla, Colima, Veracruz, etc.) Those are accents with fewer mannerisms
Soy irlandés y hablo con acento español, de España. Para mi es el acento más lindo. Joder macho, yo flipo por el castellano!
Joder tio, eso flipa .😂

Nice to see another paddy here

Si s nota a veces que no eres un hablante nativo pero tu español es muy bueno, se oye natural jaja (soy de México)
Hablas mejor que los 20 millones de chilangos viviendo en CDMX jajaja
Saludos desde tierras jaliscienses!
Son 9 y es el acento más neutral, los ñeros son nacos.

One thing Nate didn’t mention that I found was huge huge to help with my accent and learning Spanish is reading. Watch Mexican TH-cam videos or just videos in Spanish and then go to the comments and just read the comments. Go online and search something up and just read articles even if you have no idea what it is saying, you need to get that fluidity down with reading entire sentences and paragraphs and articles because if you just say the a couple or few words all the time as a response, you will never learn how to get fluid with speaking Spanish and that fluidity helps you relax and be able to pronounce words better and feel more comfortable when speaking. I do not enjoy reading at all but I read whatever I can in Spanish even if I don’t understand it and I can genuinely read Spanish better than most my Mexican friends, even the ones from Mexico where Spanish is their first language.
I'm Mexican and yeah, English has 20 different vowel sounds and spanish just has 5, they even are just short flat sounds, if you see a vowel, there's just one sound, people from other countries tend to make more than one and I think that's a pretty simple mistake to fix.
I actually think that's the most important part of speaking right and not sounding like a "Greeeeengaou".
You nailed it, yes, that's the key to a native spanish pronunciation. Straight forward with the vowels and the "r" sound make it stronger cause in english it is too subtle
As a Mexican,you sound perfect
Siempre me dió curiosidad cómo les enseñan a hablar español. Qué bueno que remarcaste que son diferentes acentos, y también palabras usadas muy distinto de un pais a otro
Great advice Nate! Years ago we had a German exchange student live with us for a school year. She asked me how she could improve her American accent. I told her to speak German mocking an American tourist speaking with a bad accent. She did that, and we laughed. I said now speak English like that. It was an almost instantaneous improvement. We laughed again! When I haven't spoken Spanish in a while, I get my mouth ready by imitating Slowpoke Rodriguez. "Speedy Gonzales ees a freend of my seester!" LOL!
This is funny, my husband and I both speak Spanish pidgeon. We really don't know Spanish but we have picked up enough to get by. Anyway, my husbaand has a deplorable accent but mine is more Mexican. So when we are in Mexico he will say something, and the person he is taking to will ask me to clarify. I repeat exactly but, I guess I sound better! I should also note that while my family is English and Swiss, I look meztiso to Mexican eyes because I am short and darker skinned. Blond, 6 foot hubby has a harder time!
Bro, your spanish is sooooooo good, hope more gringos come to watch you videos, I live in a town stacked of "expats" not willing to learn the language (most of them)...
Mexicanos: eres mexicano.
Nate: soy gringo.
Mexicanos: pero hablas español.
Nate: I'm american, gringo.
Mexicanos: *neuron activation*
XD, estuvo bueno
I really love how people from the USA get interested in learning Spanish, I'm from Argentina and don't even have the accent even thought I born there and lived there for 17 years haha
Keep it going people, I believe is something beautiful trying to learn a new language to either travel and know more places, or to get to know more people and even help them in some cases
Your Mexican Spanish is great.
Both my parents were raised in Jalisco. My dad was born in Texas but the family returned to Mexico when he was two years old.
My Spanish is a function of my Michiganian midwestern accent. There isn't a lot of inflection like someone from Mexico, or more specifically, Jalisco. I used to hate it but I came to accept it.
Besides, a very attractive woman in Jalisco once told me she LOVED my accent so at least I have that going for me, which is nice...
Ay guey!, Canelo clickbait got me. good video as usual though

A huevo , más gente aprendiendo español y aprendiendo más de nuestro idioma
A mí se me hace tan difícil aprender otro idioma ... Solo logro aprenderme palabras y una que otra frase ...pero de ahí no paso ... 😭 Que padre por los que como tú tienen la inteligencia de aprender otras lenguas!
I was born in Mexico and raised in the states. Yep, this guy has almost a perfect Mexican accent.
“Si te haya gustado” is definitely Mexican Spanish. In Spain, present subjunctive is never used with “si”. It would be “si te ha gustado”. Also, while “si puedas” is perfectly acceptable in Mexico, it would sound wrong to a Spaniard (as they would expect to hear “si puedes”). When I was recently in Mexico, I just substituted “tío” with “güey”, “coger” with “agarrar” or “tomar” and “guay” with “chido” or “padre”, and I got along famously with the Mexicans I spoke with. Although they would look at me funny when I would say “thervetha” instead of “cerveza”. I’m from the US, but I spent enough time in Spain to pronounce certain c's and z's as "th" ... so I seemed to be a gringo with a Spain Spanish accent.
We follow the same rules established by the RAE (real academia Española). Si te haya gustado not only isn’t Mexican spanish, is bad spanish period. Your assertion that bad spanish is perfectly acceptable in Mexico is just wrong.
@@madmex123 I apologize if I was wrong on that point. I’m not an expert in Mexican Spanish. I will say that on Mexican TV shows and in regular conversations with some Mexicans I know, I’ve encountered many situations where “si” is paired with the present subjunctive (si pueda hacerlo …). And also things like “No sé si venga” pop up. That is NEVER heard in Spain. First of all, if a subjunctive is to be used at all with “si”, it would be si + the past subjunctive in a hypothetical statement, like “si tuviera mucho dinero, me compraría un coche”. And saber would not trigger the present subjunctive in any case I know of. However, “si supiera el problema, intentaría resolverlo” is completely correct in Spain. I just made the incorrect assumption that si + present subjunctive was acceptable in Mexico.
@@goldvideo I have a master’s degree in Spanish literature. You trying to teach me Spanish grammar is like me trying to teach Einstein about relativity. I lived in Spain for 6 years and my dad is from Asturias.
Pronunciar la c como th no es cecear (not lisp).
ceceo -> c, z y s = th
seseo -> c, z y s = s
normativo castellano -> c y z = th . s = s
@@madmex123 How do youtube comments get so unhinged so quickly? Like the conversation in yt comments goes off the rails way faster than on any other social media. Like 3 comments in and man is already coming out of the gates swinging with "I AM THE EINSTEIN OF ESPAÑOL"
I've been speaking Spanish for over 30 years and living in Mexico City for 20 years, and no matter how well I speak the local dialect of Spanish, people often comment that they know I'm a foreigner because of my "accent." I have light blonde hair, blue eyes, and a very "foreign" body type, shall we say, so I honestly don't think it's my "accent" that's giving me away. When I speak over the phone, people never comment that I have an accent or even ask me where I'm from. I really think that one's physical appearance influences the amount of "accent" others will perceive them to have. What do you think?
El dialecto(grupo) más hablado es el español americano y de ese dialecto el más hablado es el mexicano.
Tu español es muy bueno 👌🏻
Yo queriendo aprender inglés y me sale este video de cómo aprender español 😁 que por cierto lo haces muy bien.
Hey Bro, congrats! Good spanish, I can watch your dedication. You're a mexican speaking 99% The best american that I have heard in my idiom
YO SOY MEXICANA, PERO NO LO SE COMO HACE EN APRENDER MUY RAPIDO PUES MIS PADRES SON MEXICANOS PERO YO SIEMPRE A VIVIDO EN EUA. Y HABLO MAL ESPAÑOL 😭😭 Y PIENSO QUE LO ESCRIBO MAL AUN.
Tengo algunos amigos hispanoblantes que me dijeron que ellos no tienen un buen entendemiento de la gramática, aunque sus padres no hablan inglés. Para mí, leer libros es una excelente forma de aprender gramática naturalmente.
Mi hermano es medio Cubano y solo puedo hablar un poquito de Español. Es porque su padre, mi padrastro, no hablaba español en casa, porque mi madre y yo no lo hablamos. Probablemente es algo similar para ti. Lo único consejo que puedo darte es escuchar o leer algo en español todos los días, necesitas hacer español una parte de tu vida diaria. Poco a poco tu español mejorará.
Sí tienes algunos errores, pero no es nada grave, lo que importa es que te des a entender, y lo que escribiste aquí se entiende perfectamente 😊
@@JorechDalc hi!! thanks, me gustaria hablar mejor pero con poco acsequible de clases en espanol muy dificil avonzar mio apredisaje. saludos mio amigo Jorech.
Dios mío, el video fue perfecto. El único error que hallé fue al final.
En vez de decir "si te haya gustado" queda mejor decir "si te ha gustado". Fuera de ahí super buen video, hablas clarísimo el ingles y el español y lo importante es eso.
aprendí mas sobre el español aqui, que con mis maestros de español...soy mexicano xd
Xd
Me sorprendiste muchísimo jajaj, esta genial tu manera de hablar!!
Mi acento es una mezcla de todos los cantantes latinos que he escuchado alguna vez.
As a Brazilian I love english/spanish videos because I feel like I'm trilingual 😅
Estaría muy bien qué reaccionaras a “celebridades latinas hablando Español/Portugués” el título del video es en inglés.
I love this video!
That being said, I hope people realize that this video is describing the Mexican Spanish that Mexican citizens speak, and not the different froms of Spanish, and American-English/Spanish cross breeds that Chicano, Tejano, and all other Mexican-American cultures in USA have been know to use.
Of course, real mexican standard accent, not that crappy pocho or chicano accents that sounds like a cartoon.
Los videos sobre consejos son buenos, pero los vlogs son mi favoritos.
Queremos conocer tu novia mexicana también.
Hasta luego compa.
