  • Speaking Spanish with Spanish Farmer in Andalucía Spain | (RARE SPANISH DIALECT)
    Spanish Conversation starts at 6:30
    Deep in el campo I had the opportunity to meet a farmer who showed me his farmhouse for his workers that pick olives during the olive harvest season. He showed me the rustic "cortijo" style house and we talked a bit! Enjoy.. Also, you can hear a rare and mysterious for of "El Campo" Andalusian Spanish dialect (Acento Andaluz) that many linguists have studied for ages.

      I was going to say the same, me being Dominican. But I've always had a fascination with languages and an ear for accents and I'm always happily amazed at the similarities of our Spanish language in the sense that we inherited it and much of our culture/religion from Spain, we are an amalgamation of almost all the idiosyncrasies and cosmovision of our brothers from the Iberian peninsula. Especially the Andalusian region with had the biggest impact in our accents, along with the Canarians(the seseo, like speaking with an S instead of Z) and you can hear it more so in Dominicans, Boricuas and Cubans.

It’s amazing that they were the ones we got our Spanish in Latin America. Alongside the Canarias as well. And yet, Castellano is kept intact.

    Very different but it reminds me to the deep southern part of the Dominican Republic. We call it acento sureño. My mom’s family if from Baní, not too deep in the south but still considered south.

    We moved from the UK to the Andaluz campo two years ago. We chose Huelva province, our finca is on the Portuguese border, precisely because it was less developed & more ‘real’. I quickly realised that my Castilian Spanish, learned from a profesora desde las Islas Canarias (La Laguna en Tenerife) era muy diferente al dialecto andaluz. We have a contract with local hunters from around Lepe who have a deep andaluz dialect. When we first met I did not understand a single word. Poco a poco nos estamos familiarizando con la forma en que hablan aquí. He bromeado con ellos que “¡esto ni siquiera es español!”
    Tenemos amigos en Ayamonte desde Valladolid en el norte de España. Dicen que les resulta difícil hacer amigos en Ayamonte. Se sorprende mucho de que hayamos integrado y sido aceptados por la comunidad rural andaluz de caza aquí porque son súper tradicionales y no suelen estar abiertos a los extranjeros. Dicen que tenemos una relación que está cerrada a ellos.
    We love our adopted country and its people. We visited the UK for the first time in January since May 2020 and talked about “coming home”. We meant coming home to Spain after our visit.

    There isn't much of a "RARE SPANISH DIALECT)" but the speed or EXTREME fluency which he uses when he talks, if we take into account that you are a non-Spanish speaking fellow, and he understood every single word you said, this guy speaks very good Spanish. There was a little segment where I couldn't make up what he said, this is probably because of the speed he uses when he talks. By the way, this style of Spanish is the one that was introduced to the Cubans and the rest of the Caribean Spanish speaking people. this guy reminds me of Cubans friends I speak to.

      Actually, the migration started much earlier than that. Years ago I read a paper about the origin of the accents in American Spanish. It explained that, since the ships headed for America departed from the ports in the Atlantic coast of Andalucía, with a call in the Canary Islands, many women from Andalucía, Extremadura and the Islands left for America when the colonization started after 1492. Since women had such important role in raising the children from birth, they passed their accent to their children throughout the next centuries, well before the 19th c. migrations. That’s why the Spanish spoken in the Americas has such strong influence from those Spanish regions.

      Latin American Spanish was greatly influenced by the Spanish that is spoken in the South of Spain.
      The reason you found it hard to believe that it is actually from Spain is because the central and Northern Spaniards pretty much control all of the media. All of the "Spain Spanish accent" videos on yt, movie dubs , talk shows , novelas,news shows and the biggest yt channels all come from up there . Many Andalusian youtubers also change their accent when they start to grow in order to "make it" so I don't blame you for thinking that.

This man is from Málaga for sure. Not the coast, I´d put my money in somewhere between Antequera and Vélez-Málaga. By the way, in the parts that are not translated he says "(His landlot is) where this car stands and uphill to the top, where the oak tree is." And the car owners are "Maghrebi" (from North-West Africa). They were working in the strawberry harvesting and went to their country but they could not come back as the border was closed.

      I guess what makes it rare is that the Andalusian accent has left linguists and historians confused as to how it's evolved to become what it has today with it's specific regional dialects. It's unique, and therefore, rare. When you consider there are 450+ million Spanish speakers in the world and Andalucia has a population of a little more than 8 million, then accents and dialects in rural andalucia (which is sparsely populated) is on the more rare side. Anyways, this farmer, Antonio, lived in the same property you saw at the beginning of the video his whole life, or so he told me. This was outside of Alcalá la Real, Jaen, so that's where he's from. Thanks for the translations! You, and other fellow redditors helped me out because I have been wondering exactly what he said for the last 6 months, haha!

After the fall of Córdoba in 1031 due to political tensions, Al-Andalus divided into numerous mini-estates (known as the Kingdoms of Taifa) of which Sevilla was the most prominent one.

      Spanish is a Romance language derived from Vulgar Latin, but it also has strong influences from the languages of other people that made the Iberian Peninsula their home: Visigoths and Arabs. You can find multitude of words derived from Germanic languages and Arabic in today’s Spanish language.

    I'm an American whose parents are from Mexico, and thus grew up speaking and hearing the Mexican "dialect" (if you could call it that, as it's basically to the Spanish dialect what the Australian or American is to the British), adding on to that having tons of Spanish speaking friends and active desire to improve my Spanish, so I consider myself very fluent (maybe not like someone who grew up in a Spanish-speaking country, but pretty dang close I'd say). That being said, I was surprised that I didn't catch about 60%-65% of what he said honestly. Even more surprising is that Puerto Ricans and Cubans didn't seem to have much trouble at all. Guess I'm not as sharp as I thought I was in the Spanish language. EDIT: Listening to more I'd say I don’t understand like 30%. The part around where he was talking about his car is pretty tough to understand. But it's way cool to hear his accent though. It's things like this that the Spanish language and Spain richer and more fascinating.

    El habla andaluza no es homogénea, varía según su distribución geográfica. La idiosincrasia de sus habitantes y hay que tener en cuenta su gran riqueza y antigüedad cultural, hace que su lengua sea muy expresiva. Esta expresividad se suma además a una inclinación por enriquecer el relato con mucha información. La forma de sociabilizar junto con la vida al aire libre y el buen tiempo hace que la comunicación verbal sea su máximo logro y el habla sea un verdadero arte y una magnífica herramienta social. Pero para comunicar tanto los andaluces aceleran el discurso, resumen las palabras, casi obvian las preposiciones y artículos y utilizan intensidades, acentos y cambios de ritmo para dotar de gran expresividad lo que dicen. Si no te crías en ese "teatro" lingüístico te costará muchísimo entender y te pierdes su gran disfrute. Con un poco de interés y oír hablar mucho seguro que terminarás amando su lengua

    Dear Elliot: I think you are not a linguist, much less a philologist specialized in Spanish dialectology!, to be able to affirm so definitively, and with that casualness that characterizes you, that the interviewee in this video speaks a "rare dialect." of Spanish". He is only a speaker of one of the 8 to 11 variants of the Andalusian dialect, so it should not be surprising the speed and economy of the language that characterizes it and that is definitely the greatest and best-known characteristic of each and every one of the the variants of the Andalusian dialect.
