@lockyloc88 Hola Lockyloc! Gracias por pasar por mi canal :) espero verte más a menudo por aquí! De hecho me has enseñado algo, no tenía idea de Peñafiel y ahora sé un poco más.
¿Te refieres al acento que aparece en el vídeo Toros Penafiel.mov de Youtube?
Hi Daniel, I really enjoy your videos, for sure :) But there's something I want to ask you: I'm been noticing when you speak Spanish your voice sounds a little bit different, I mean deep, even dirt. Am I the only one who noticed that? Otherwise, when you speak English, or sometimes Chinese, your voice sounds, some way, softer. Anyway, this is just a doubt and I don't know if this is for a reason o not. Sorry for my English, but as you're already know it's not my native language.
@wackend Hi bro! Thank you so much for your feedback :). You are absolutely right, my voice is hoarser and deeper when I speak Spanish. Some have said it sounds a bit like Maxi from La que se avecina. When I lived in Spain, the person that I most talked to was a really great, serious, macho host-father that I lived with. He also smoked a lot and was quite the character. You can imagine the booming voice he had! I decided early on that I would try and imitate his tone and register in my Spanish.
@wackend I have a strange personal theory about the learning of languages. In my opinion, it is easier to "mask" or hide phonetic features of English if I speak with an accent that is phonetically more distant from the features of my Californian English. For example, my experience living in Mexico and working with Mexicans means if I want, I can also imitate Mexican accents. However, certain features of Mexican Spanish such as the /s/ predorsal and the less fricative /x/ or even /h/ ...
@wackend are so similar to sounds in English that it becomes more difficult to hide that I am not a native Spanish speaker. Therefore, I chose the Spanish accent from Madrid, and I specifically a more castizo style, chain-smoker street Spanish, because I think it allows me to hide my native English accent. The soft sounds of Mexican Spanish, alternatively, make it easier for me to slip into regions of pronunciation that could be mistaken for 'pronunciación anglosajona'. Its a crazy theory I know
@wackend From a cognitive point of view, I believe that my choice of accent (in Spanish I usually speak Madrilian, not Andalusian) makes it easier for me to inhibit my first language. In the field of Second Language Acquisition we know that to a certain extent, speakers of a second language must inhibit or block their first language. Speaking with an accent that is very different from my first language helps me to draw a clear line between Spanish and English, allowing me to 'think in Spanish'.
@wackend En dos palabras, siento que si hablara con la voz más aguda como la tengo en inglés sería más fácil notar que soy estadounidense. Es una teoría disparatada lo sé :).
Jajajaj en serio, me encanta cómo te afanas con el idioma español, para querer aprender incluso todos los distintos acentos. Me parece que eres un tío admirable, y espero que te vaya muy bien todo en la vida =D ¡Y no dejes de hacer vídeos!
hablas super bien de verdad, pero cuando hablas en andaluz me recuerdas Peñafiel hahahahah
