It's kind of funny, while most students worry about how to pronounce things, I'm worrying about which dialect to use. cool
But for real, how do you chose? It's not only a matter of different pronounciation of letters, it's about familiar expressions and terms. I can't decide whether to use the Castillian, Rioplatense, or Mexican dialect. I just don't know. whee
How do you guys deal with this?

For American I use a mix of several dialects. Usually for sounds though, not always words. For Japanese, right now it's whatever I know. whee Usually Toukyou ben or Oosaka ben. I might be moving to Okinawa soon so I'm definately going to pick up some Okinawa ben before I move ti Toukyou, Kyoto, or Oosaka. 3nodding

A lot of Okinawa ben is alike to the rest of Japanese, but there's also so much different that's it's almost considered another language. I learned that from a native Japanese.

My information comes from a native who lives in Oosaka. And if Okinawa ben is a different language, then why is there so much alike between it and all the other dialects? My dad has only been to Okinawa and that's where he learned the little Japanese that he knows.

Castilian, love. Of course. 8D
I have sometimes trouble with English. As in, American or British English? D: According to my teachers, the British one is more correct. I once got reprimmended for using an -american- word. *gonkage*

I actually think the British way to spell some words looks better. Like color-colour, favorite-favourite. I think the ones with the Us look more correct. And I'm not even supposed to be using that in this state! xd When we first became a country I guess they considered Amrican a different language altogether from English. lol

After I got back from Spain a couple years ago, I was stuck in Castillian-mode for months. xd People in my Spanish Lit. class kept asking me why I was "speaking with a lisp". rolleyes
Which dialect I speak (Mexican or Castilian) depends on where I am, though. I often use Castilian in my head because I like it better, but I mostly use the Mexican dialect because it's the one that's pretty much standard here in the States, especially considering our geographical location. If/when I go to Europe again, I'll probably switch over to Castillian.
I was tempted to start speaking in the Castillian dialect in my Spanish class now, since the professor is sevillana, but everyone else in the class speaks Mexican Spanish, so I do it too due to peer pressure confused (and also, there are people in my class that I wouldn't be surprised if they wouldn't be able to understand what I'm saying if I spoke in the Castillian dialect stare ). Plus I think the professor might think I'm weird if I keep switching dialects when I talk to her. xd
@Morphine: I would recommend the British dialect... it's so much cooler-sounding than any American dialect! biggrin

@ Dave&all: To me Castilian is more beautiful, but I guess I can't really tell because I don't speak it unless when messing around. Because I speak another one that Spanishnerd didn't list there.. >=B *ahem* but of course, if the one spoken there is Mexican..I guess it's better to use the one peple understand the most.
O.o If your teacher is Sevillian, she might speak Andalusian too! :3 *totally needs to make a thread/find the existing one for Andalusian&write about it xD*

So pretty much in all of the Spanish dialect-related threads that I've posted in, pretend I said "Andalucian" instead of "Castillian".
My bad. xd
