And Cubans? I don't know how she figured out what their accent is. They talk so fast, who knows what they're saying? Cubans are the only Spanish speakers I literally cannot understand half the time. When I go to Cuba they launch into their full conversational Spanish when they realize I speak Spanish and I have to ask someone to translate. The hotel staff eventually get that even though I speak fluently, they have speak to me in their dumbed-down-for-gringos Spanish.
