The Skull? I think actor was Spanish-Mexican.

you're serious?

Don't know why but in Spanish 'v' is pronounced as 'b'. This should be for all Spanish speakers.

Also, soft 'c' is pronounced as 'th'. At least that's how it's properly pronounced in Spain. The Spanish diaspora may be different.

Reminds me of Hebrew. Could it be the Sephardi influence on the language?

Maybe but star wars changed the game as far as science fiction and special effects.

shyt idk, maybe cos the B and V sound familiar and could be pronounce d interchangeably while speaking? I know when I was little (before I started school) I remember pronouncing words that started with v with a b and sometimes vice versa. But yes the Cubans they pronounce Bs more pronounced (with more oomph to it if know what I mean)

Every Spanish dialect from different country got their own ways/accents/rules or manners when speaking Spanish. How the Cubans pronounce the B and Vs and switching it up is like how DRs does it with the Ls and Rs ( and the Is for cibaeños) when speaking informal Spanish.

In Spanish the V is pronounced as V and B Is pronounced as B. They just sound very similar when pronounce words that has the letter b or v comparing to the b and v in English.

The Z is also pronounced as "the"

Spaniards pronounce corazón, zapatos,zero as corathon,zapatos,thero. With a lisp too cos it make em sound more classy.

Thanks, it all adds up. Cuba received a large influx of Spaniards as immigrants post-slavery era. I believe more Spaniards arrived there than any other of her former colonies in the region.
That had to have impacted the society in many ways, replenishing and bolstering elements of Spanish culture, including language. And made the written and spoken formal Spanish in Cuba closer to Spain's than the other colonies.

*Castro's father was an immigrant Spaniard

 

[Baka's Weird Case]

no, Tony Montana was such an exceptionally righteous and just generally kind-hearted person that I couldn’t imagine him being a racist. It would go against his principles, his character and everything he stood for

Yea lotta Spaniards immigrated ( mainly from the Canary Island, Andalusia and Galicia) to Cuba during and after the colonial times. That mainly because Cuba and along with PR, it was the last Spanish's stronghold in the Americas. All of it's former colonies sought for independence. Cuba was known to be very loyal to Spain.

On the bolded part, that what makes Cuba to be the most Spanish influenced country in Latin America as well as being the most African influenced country (after Haiti and Brazil). There's a document on youtube about the Spanish dialect of those from the Canary island. Their Spanish/accent sounds very similar to Caribbean Spanish but it more closely to the Cuban's.


And yes Fidel's pop was from Galicia I think.

I was about to say Argentina actually but I remembered the majority of the Europeans who immigrated there were not Spanish.

fukk that movie.satanic
it influenced a lot of people to stray from the path

Nah. Although Argentina received alot Spanish immigrants during and after the colonial times, the Italians migrated there in droves. Argentina is considered the most "European" influenced country in Latin America ( they're very bland Hispanics, Tango which was invented by the African slaves is what give them a lil spice to their culture) but not heavily influenced by the Spaniards like the Cubans.

Although the Latin American culture and it's history started in the Hispañola, I will always see Cuba as the mecca of the Hispanic american culture. Cuba gave lots of flavor through it's music, literature, food and more.
