Nobody expected the spanish "En un lugar de la Mancha de cuyo nombre no quiero acordarme, viva Mejico, cabrones"... :-)

Well, is a post about spanish language after all, should be ok to have some fun about the topics... You can trust me, such thing like a "spaniard accent" does not exist at all. A common mistake for non native speakers that mix lots and lots of accents and clichés. Spanish dialects and local variations are a big minefield.

Is like saying that English accent (from England) doesn't exist. Of course it does. Every single region has its own accents. And yes, I guess within Spain accents vary, which I guess is the thing you are being pedantic about.

Well I would definitely not expect a mexican to write Mexico with a "j". So are you from Spain or not?
