The Spanish language originated in Spain and to-day even though more than 100 million people speak Spanish worldwide, the language is universally understood. As with English, there are, of course, regional variations in accent and idioms. Besides, do not forget that many more people speak American Spanish than Spanish Spanish.

Just as there are regional differences in pronunciation of English words in Ireland, in the United Sates, so there are regional variations in Spanish spoken in different parts of Spain, in Latin America, in Mexico. More Americans speak Spanish in the United States itself or in Latin or Central America for business or pleasure, so, why not learn a Latin American rather than a Castilian accent?
