What is the correct name of the language? Español or castellano? In this video I will give you the information so you learn what are some of the differences between these two words. I say español. Some native Spanish speakers say hablo español ; other native Spanish speakers say hablo castellano. You might say castellano or español. Some of the reasons behind the confusion for these two terms are presented in this video. I will explain to you why some people say one, and others say the other. The reasons behind these two terms are historical. You see, Isabel de Castilla spoke castellano. But many shipmen who were in the crew of the yachts that got to America were not from Castilla, they were from other regions in Spain and the world and they did not specifically speak castellano, they spoke a mix, a soup of the different languages, dialects from all over Spain. There are some letters and sounds in Spanish that are pronounced different in Spain and in Latin America. You may notice that the Spanish letters c and z are pronounced as a th in Spain, especially in the central north part of the country, whereas in the south, in Andalucía, the sounds of these two letters of the Spanish alphabet are closer to the pronunciation in America. So, in Madrid , for instance, you might hear more castellano with that th sound. But in Andalucía you may not hear that very castilian th sound. In Barcelona, for instance, they speak catalán and español. Some other good examples of this difference is the vosotros compared to ustedes. The former used in the majority of Spain, and the central, northern region and ustedes used in America, in some parts of Andalucía and in the Canary Islands. This video is more a historic introductory note to these two terms native Spanish speakers use to refer to their language. • Mmmm, this already smells like mole. Like the sauce made of so many different ingredients so is the term español as it was made by different linguistic variants. But wait, I do not want to tell you the whole story in my sloppy writing. That is why I created the video, so go and watch it and see why some people say español and others castellano. Buena suerte caminante. Do not forget to watch the second part of the story. • La otra era La Niña.
