Differences between European and Latin American Spanish

  • Latin American Spanish speakers use English loanwords. For example: Latin American Spanish speakers say "la computadora" while Spaniards say "el ordenador."
  • Latin American Spanish has incorporated words from indigenous languages, especially in Central America and Peru. Axis Translations can tailor your materials to a specific country's vocabulary.
  • European Spanish speakers use loanwords from neighbouring countries like France and Portugal. A Latin American Spanish speaker would have difficulty understanding these words.
  • Spanish speakers may sound as if they have a lisp because they pronounce the letters "z" and "c" differently than Latin Americans.
  • European Spanish speakers use "vosotros" to informally address multiple people, much like Americans from the Southern United States can use the word "y'all." Latin American Spanish speakers use "ustedes" to refer to both formal and informal plural groups.
