my mom is from Nicaragua, i never knew i ended up slurring words together when i spoke the language more with her. pretty interesting that i never once realized how excessive she's used the -ito/-ita at the ending, i thought this was normal for a lot of Spanish-speaking countries. of course, my Spanish probably ended up getting mixed with Mexican Spanish too since i also speak the language with my dad who is from Mexico

Not sure if you spelled the words wrong in your slang video but many of the words in that video that were spelled with 'e' pronounced it eeee, like a long e instead of like a long a in English. Deacachimba was pronounced dee-ah-cah-cheem-ba, not day-ah-cah-cheem-ba. In this video all the vowels seem to be the typical Spanish pronunciation.

Tremenda descripcion la del video, muy acertiva, respecto al español Neutral de Nicaragua , yo tambien estoy muy de acuerdo con este video con explicaciones en ingles, porque realmente asi es, el español de Nicaragua es un español mas neutro , por eso ,aveces el español de Nicaragua🇳🇮 se parece al español venezolano🇻🇪, otras veces se parece al español salvadoreño🇸🇻 ,otras veces al español del pais hermano Hondureño🇭🇳, otras veces al español Mexicano🇲🇽, otras veces al español Argentino🇦🇷, otras veces al español caribeño🇩🇴🇵🇷🇨🇺 ,otras veces al Español de algun pais centro americano🇸🇻🇭🇳🇬🇹🇵🇦🇨🇷 , otras veces se parece a otro acento español de los otros paises sur americanos🇵🇪🇧🇴🇵🇾🇺🇾🇪🇨🇨🇴 o Hispano Americano🇨🇱 ,eso explica muy bien que el español de Nicaragua es un español Neutral, ya que no se puede encacillar a un solo pais de centro america o a un solo pais de hispano america, lo que lo lleva a ser un lenguaje español muy rico en sonidos y entonaciones que dependeran de la region de Nicaragua donde se hable, porque hay variedad respecto a la region ya que varia ,si hablas en el centro del pais, o si hablas en el norte , igual pasa si hablas en el pacifico del pais o si hablas en el atlantico caribe de Nicaragua y lo mejor es que aunque los sonidos, entonacion o palabras varien de acuerdo a la zona del pais, todos nos entendemos muy bien al ser nuestro español ,un español Neutral ,esta es la verdadera herencia de Ruben Dario para los Nicaraguenses, un lenguaje Neutral muy completo, con un español rico en sonidos ,suave al oido en entonaciones, con un acento muy bonito de escuchar, con un dialecto directo de Andalucia España🇪🇸 y lo mejor de todo, un Español Neutral Nica avalado por el principe de las letras castellanas, Ruben Dario, sin duda ,un video muy acertado del acento y del Español🇪🇸 Neutral de los NICAS🇳🇮, y felicito a la creadora de este video por ser muy acertiva y precisa aun cuando en el video lo explico en Ingles y partes en idioma Español ,well done my friend for this nice video !!!

Taking driving lessons in Nicaragua was a traumatizing experience to say the least. It’s even a challenge for foreigners who already know how to drive… Very busy roads, by that I mean, people walking on the side of the road with carretas or their selling goods, stray dogs walking down the road, people suddenly jaywalking. As a new driver, rude people yelling or honking at you because they expect you to go faster. Then there’s the ones who happily offend you with “son of a b*” and what not. The cars are mostly manual, which doubles the learning difficulty. And to top it off, the teacher was a cranky old man who wouldn’t stop yelling during the lesson. That was many years ago, but I really don’t recommend learning to drive in Nicaragua if you’re a foreigner. It’s a different world! On the other hand, Daniel and Chayo’s government has really improved the infrastructure, so there’s less potholes now, new bridges, roads, and highways.

Este lugar ademas renta vehiculos, y las instalaciones son horribles, la atencion es horrible, y honestamente da miedo, parece un lugar que no ofrece seguridad, esta en super malas condiciones, no se dejen engañar por los precios que publican. Mi peor experiencia fue con la renta de un vehiculo, pues ademas de habitaciones ofrecen vehiculos para los turistaas, este lugar entrega vehículos en malas condiciones, y cuando el usuario los devuelve le cobran recargos por los más mínimos detalles, es mejor buscar otro lugar de prestigio, me cobraron US$80 por una raya q el vehículo en malas condiciones ya tenía, tuve que ir al lugar para q le cambiaran las llantas pues se desinflaban cada dos por tres, luego se le encendió el piloto del motor, y ni por cerca que me ofrecieron una disculpa o descuento, y sobre el cobro del rayón aunque les mostré que ya estaba cuando me lo entregaron, igualmente me lo cobraron, no hubo poder sobre la tierra q los convenciera, a pesar de tener un video q lo comprobaba, decían q ese no era el mismo y la mala actitud de la encargada y del q recibió el vehículo que por cierto no era el mismo q nos los entregó y a quien le terminaron amenazando que le iban a cobrar el daño por no fijarse, encima la encargada de manera arrogante me decía que yo no tenía experiencia rentando vehículos, cuando estoy segura que esta persona es la que no cuenta con experiencia ni con educación de atención al cliente. De verdad mejor busque otro lugar, con mi mala suerte yo caí acá y busco que otros no tengan esta misma mala experiencia.

Well...for feedback purposes, I initially started watching your videos because of the Nicaraguan content, then it seemed to switch to speaking and learning spanish, after that, for a couple of videos you switched to quitting your server job and venturing in being self employed, lately there is a lot of self affirmation...kind of... I am not sure where you are going with this channel, but I feel bad when I see so few videos viewed and comments. I worry that you take that to heart. Anyway, I am watching your videos less and less, but they still pop up in my feed for some reason. You are young and I guess it's ok to be a little direction-less at your age. This video of you driving who-knows-where, is a fair analogy about what you are trying to do with your channel. Like, "where the hell is she going? Anyway, I do wish you the best.
