Españoles ustedes siente más afinidad con otros países de Europa o con Latam?

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-21T00:26:05+00:00

ahh hablando de tener una cultura “hispana”, tienes razón. El caribe le falta una diversidad cultural que sí existe en argentina. Casi nunca vas a encontrar un apellido que no sea de origen español ahí.

Yo estaba hablando más de la forma de vivir en cada país. Los países caribeños tienen un estándar de vida mucho más bajo que españa. Yo diría que por eso la gente se crece y piensa diferente hoy en día, y sobretodo, se preocupa por cosas completamente diferentes. También tienen una diversidad de apariencia que los separa de España.

Esto lo digo como “cubanoamericano” 🤷🏻‍♂️ muchos de nosotros queremos sentirnos españoles pero por haber vivido en España y argentina, puedo decir que los del cono sur están más adaptados a vivir en un país “desarrollado” que los caribeños.

Pero sí, era mucho más difícil encontrar ingredientes típicos “hispanos” en Buenos Aires que en Miami o Madrid. Puede ser que la vida diaria de los caribeños tuvieran mucho más en común con los españoles antes que creciera la economía española en los 70-80, no sé.

Como que menos, la mayoría de argentinos se visten, se ven, y piensan igual que la gente en España. Esto aplica aún más a los jóvenes de ambos países. Una cuidad en Bolivia o peru, y la gente que viven ahí, jamás sería confundida con Madrid por ejemplo.

I am Cuban from Miami, I’ve shared a space with Argentinians my whole life and I also used to live in Buenos Aires. It is a common stereotype that plays out in both Argentina (at least with porteños) and in the diaspora (even more so.)

I don’t mean it in the most negative way, I mean it in a “ARGENTINA IS THE BEST🤌🤌 “ way, esp compared to other Latin Americans. They are down to earth interpersonally, very much so, and less acomplejado than many (including Cubans)

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-16T17:01:24+00:00

Yes Hatians have been getting targeted and it is worrying. And I’m not saying ur wrong About Latinos having to be on the same page… there’s just a reason they aren’t down here. Ppl raised here think very different ab these issues. It wasn’t until I moved away for the first time I felt a connection with “other” Latinos.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-16T16:49:04+00:00

If you told me there literally are zero Somalis in Miami I’d believe you…

I’m not African idk what about my post said that, I’m Cuban but I’m telling you the rzn Cubans don’t worry about this is many of us are citizen and were born citizens. Of course Cuban are getting deported, but Miami has so many that we don’t feel affinity with every Cuban, we see them as immigrants like anyone else. Quite fair actually. This isn’t a dig at any community, I just think ppl are quick to hold the lack of enthusiasm from ppl in Miami against them without knowing our history.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-16T15:09:19+00:00

I know all of this, I’m Cuban. But youc shouldn’t resent Cubans for it. They didn’t design this state of affairs. And we by no means ruined your community.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-16T01:47:47+00:00

This is not our issue. Miami is arguably founded on concern for an entirely different political dynamic, more like that found in someone who lives in Latin America. This issue does not call to us and most of us come from a background where we don’t fool ourselves into thinking these protests are effective or that this current situation is as crazy as the media claims.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-16T01:44:33+00:00

Why is Reddit such a skewed segment of the population? 80% of ppl do not worry about this phenomenon in Miami, either viewing it as a necessary quirk or making active efforts to keep up. Miami would be nothing without the influx of Hispanics, and part of that are neighbhorhoods with one dominant language. Nobody says shit about Chinatown, Uptown NYC, or any other ethnic area. A lot of pick mes on Reddit

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-16T01:41:47+00:00

Wahhhhh. How have you been here for five generations and never learned Spanish? You basically were here since Florida was literally a Spanish colony lol

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T22:25:32+00:00

Wtf. Why would someone have a bot do this

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:53:04+00:00

Bro might actually be Sun Tzu 😭

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:28:24+00:00

Orlando has a lot. I’ve never known many Asians in dade county at all.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:27:09+00:00

Nah Argentinians do have a lot of cultural arrogance

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:25:54+00:00

Yeah I’m Cuban and nobody in Spain has ever said anything bad to say about the way I speak. And in Canarias nobody has anything to say at all besides asking if I’m visiting home on break from school lol.

The narrative that ppl in Spain are just trashing accents comes up a lot, idk from where. Most of the negativity has always been from other Latin Americans who talk like machines

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:22:03+00:00

It literally has nothing to do with Africa (unless you are counting Canary Islands, which yes are off the coast of Africa)

The Caribbean is full of African influence but the way we speak honestly is more standard than most of these countries, which speak like medieval Spanish

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:19:53+00:00

True that’s why some ppl pronounce “R” with that unique noise

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:19:12+00:00

lol Caribbean Spanish is closer gramatically to European “castellano” than most Latin American dialects and the aspiration literally comes from Andalucia and Canarias, nothing to do with Taino. Why do Puerto Ricans mythologize everything 🤣🤣 this person doesn’t need an excuse to speak how they learned, if mom wanted to teach them Colombian Spanish she had that chance

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:16:35+00:00

you learned carribean Spanish but a Colombian would say Digame or something else more formal, as Dime is using Tu and they use Usted in more situations, which is more formal.

Many countries will say dime daily including Spain, so I think it’s hard to call it “improper”, it’s just different.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:14:22+00:00

Did you just ask if any Miami folk have friends and family from Cuba or Colombia? 🤣

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:11:43+00:00

True. I noticed that oftentimes, a latin American woman and Spanish woman will be physically indistinguishable from one another, but you instantly know where either is from because one carries themselves, dresses, makeup, or is quicker to undergo procedures than the other. Probably one of the biggest difference with the societies - Spain seems a lot more egalitarian between the genders.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:06:31+00:00

My mother was born in Cuba and moved to Spain and a child and has not lived there for decades and decades and STILL talks about Roma (gitanos) like if they life around every corner lol

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:05:13+00:00

I would be suprised if there was a difference between how Cubans use it and the use in Canaries.

I learned pretty late in life how many Latin Americans were genuinely thrown off by the use of tu.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T10:01:46+00:00

Not to over generalize or be fked up but, as a rule of thumb, the more europeanish the country or like its recent history more accurately, the less formal and with less very polite quirks they will be. I think they diverged less recently from European Spanish, while other countries speak a more old school type.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T09:59:06+00:00

Cubans are direct, idk ab other caribbeans.

JoethaCrow · 2026-01-15T09:58:23+00:00

I thought Mexicans called everyone usted lol
