Shlama Akhi Paul:
Thanks for your explanation... I could support it also from the SPANISH point of view: The SPANISH we speak in Cuba is sightly different from the SPANISH spoken in Spain, or Argentina, Mexico...

That's because Spanish isn't a real language but merely an incorrect byword for a family of languages. This family consists of the real languages - Castilian; Catalan; Basque and Galician.

So depending where you go in Spain you'll be exposed to very different languages. Basque for example is nothing like the other three.

The so-called Spanish most people are exposed to is the Castilian language. However in those places where Galician populations immigrated in large numbers their language is actually Galician. Cuba is an example of this as they speak Galician rather than Castilian, though the uninitiated in such matters call it Spanish nevertheless.

Galician is really Portuguese being spoken in Spain. Like the Greeks, the Castilians try to trick foreigners into believing it's all the same but its not.

This is why a Cuban will understand Portuguese and Galician people more easily than other peoples such as Argentinians who were raised under the Castilian language.
