Amarillo is a primary color and it's difficult to change over time in the same language.

The Portuguese counterpart of the Spanish "rojo" is "roxo". But currently "roxo" means "purple". Centuries ago "roxo" was used to mean "red." In Portuguese "púrpura" means "purple" and is a shade of "roxo". The word for "red" in Portuguese is "vermelho".

The girl from the US says the only word for corn she knew was "elote," but I guarantee she has heard of "maiz." We learn it from a young age as "maize" (pronounced "meiz" i.e. like the word "maze") which has a very important significance to US history, as it was one of the foods the natives are said to have taught the early colonists how to grow. It's the whole Thanksgiving origin story. I'm pretty sure the Amerian girl just didn't recognize the Spanish pronunciation, especially since the Cuban girl's accent drops the Z for a light H sound (maih) and the Spanish girl's accent pronounces Z as English TH (maith).

[@DarklordZagarna]

Disagree-- I don't think more than a fraction of Americans know the word "maize." 99.9 percent of the time we just say "corn," even if it's an anachronism. Ironically, in your example, the colonists surely would not have called the plants they were growing "corn" (because they would have thought "corn" meant wheat). But the word shifted over time in the US because "corn" really just means "staple grain," and after a few generations of crop-growing and linguistic shift, maize took over that role from wheat in the US. People from the UK would still say "maize" though.

[@zammich3649]

@@DarklordZagarna I'm not saying we SAY maize, I'm saying we learned about maize being called maize.

[@DarklordZagarna]

@@zammich3649 Speaking for myself, we did not-- certainly not any more than we would have learned about trucks being called lorries or elevators being called lifts. Perhaps there's been a shift in linguistic education since I was in school, but if so, I've never heard of it before. Which, fair enough, there's lots of things I've never heard of.

[@zammich3649]

@@DarklordZagarna To be fair, I don't mean it in a modern sense. I mean when we studied about the pilgrims and especially the origins of Thanksgiving it was always "The natives showed them how to grow corn, which was called 'Maize' */teacher waves around multicolored corn prop*." But it's totally fair you didn't learn it. The term showed up a lot in my education but perhaps it's less common than I realized.

There are 5 different dialects in Argentina; Norteño, Cuyano, Cordobés, Guaranítico (a mix between spanish and guaraní make a perfect combination) and Rioplatense. This last one being the "stereotypical" Argentinian accent, which we also share with Uruguay. The Rioplatense accent is the most spoken one in our country, used in about 9 provinces, from Buenos Aires to the whole south of the country. The "yeísmo (or sheismo)" in Argentina, is more prominent in the region where the Rioplatense accent is spoken. The other four accents variate the pronunciation between and ch/sh sound and the very north of the country use the "i" sound, but It is not very common.

América es un continente, no un país, todos los que viven en el continente son americanos, no solo los estadounidenses. La palabra Latinoamérica es una invención francesa para intentar autoincluirse en la región, a causa de que vamos aceptando más y más Latinoamérica es que los estadounidenses van apropiándose de la palabra América, tanto es así que en Europa solo ellos son considerados americanos a la hora de pronunciar la palabra. Las personas que viven en el extremo norte de América son norteamericanos.

In Mexican Spanish we say Maiz and Elote. Although "elote" refers more exclusively to the corn you would eat -- i.e., corn on the cob. Maiz refers more exclusively to "corn flour" (harina de maiz) and the plant (maiz). We also say "autobus, bas, y camion". Autobus is pretty neutral/standard whereas Camion you would hear it used more. However, "bas" is used a lot in California.

[@BlackHoleSpain]

In Spain the word "camión" is used exclusively for what is called "truck" in USA or "lorry" in UK. Bus or autobus is a city public transport, while "autocar" is the word preferred when you talk about long-distance transport by road.

It’s just a different dialect. I don’t NOT understand people from other Spanish speaking countries, but we have different accents, and different meanings for same words and some words are completely lacking altogether between the dialects. It can be confusing, but not undeciferable. Honestly it’s the accents that make it the hardest to understand others, not the words themselves. Think of yourself speaking to a Brit, or an Australian….same scenario as me talking with a Mexican or Venezuelan or whatever.”
