It would be difficult for anyone to deduce what South American country given they all speak Spanish except Brazil, Guyana, French Guiana and Suriname. Yes I know there are different slight dialects, but for someone to know all that would be so impossible. This was very interesting. Thanks for presenting it.

[@lingualizer]

Thanks for watching!

[@briantravelman]

That's true. But thanks to the subtitles I was able to guess Chile, because he cut the S off his own name😂 But if it wasn't subtitled, I wouldn't know any better. Some of the South American ones you can guess because, they cut letters off their words. But the Meso-American ones are much harder.

[@jal051]

@@briantravelman Argentinian and Mexican are super easy, but the rest can be hard in just a couple of sentences, specially if the person doesn't have a strong accent. Like, in Chile people can have a pretty neutral latam Spanish or a super strong accent.

[@coopaloopmex]

Actually it's easier in South America than it is in Central America. Chileans are very different from Arg and very different from Colombia & Venezuela. It's the tricky central american nations that would trip me up.

Great video! As an Ecuadorian, I knew where the Chilean man was from right away, it's very distinctive, but I couldn't guess for the Honduran girl (because I'm not familiar with that accent) and the Dominican woman (she sounded fairly neutral and not like most Dominicans, all I could guess was somewhere in the Caribbean)

[@lingualizer]

Interesting!

[@EduardoHernandez-vv8ey]

Same thing I thought about the Dominican contestant, and I'm Puerto Rican. I was getting Caribbean vibes, but her accent was not strong enough, or at least not what I'm used to hearing from our neighbors.

[@Dah42]

I didn't think the Chilean spoke with a distinctive Chilean accent, if I had to guess, I'd say he has lived in Europe for a long time and as a result he has lost a large percentage of his Chilean accent.

Your challenge is not guessing the languages but the different accents, and that’s hard when too many countries speak the same language: English, Spanish, French and Arabic.

Recognized the Bari accent right away, that guy was so funny ahahah, I knew he was going to say the answer was wrong as maybe he didn't understand it was about the capital city. Even though local dialects weren't part of the game, I think they made it more challenging as if someone talked in plain Italian it would be easily recognized whereas it's more difficult for a stranger to tell regional dialects. Props to you for quickly telling what it was! P.S. Could've never told that was Irish, Arabic is way easier to recognize imo. Persian sounded amazing! 🇮🇷
