Yessss! ¡Viva el athento andaluth! biggrin Kokoroki Is this the one that pronounces Gracias as Grah-thee-yahs? They tend to drop the s's at the end of syllables, too, so it's more like "grathia."

Umm...actually, people who speak -Castilian- NEVER drop the s[/fact] xD;
Err...a story! 8D
This year in our trip to Ireland there were two groups of Spanish students in our school. One of Basques, one of Sevillians.
It was rather funny, we had fun mocking the other's accents~ And at one point of time, most of the sevillians had stopped dropping the s at the end of the words..yeah and I was all "I want to speak normally again! I swear I can't stop saying the s! D:" and one girl was all "I think this accent is really cute! =D"

But, but...
When I lived with a family in Sevilla for a week, in the morning the mother would always be like "Hola, bueno' día'!" confused
And my sevillana Spanish Composition teacher tends to drop her s's sometimes. Not all the time, but fairly often.
Maybe you do drop the s's and you just don't realize you're doing it. xd
EDIT: Ooohh, wait, wait, are the Castillian and Andalucian dialects two different things? sweatdrop
