- Chilean Spanish has its own characteristics. You will notice that in general Chileans speak fast and not really clear. However, you will get used to it, so don’t worry. They commonly do not pronounce the “s” on ends of words. Chilean Spanish has some words for things that are different than Standard Spanish. You may hear the second person singular pronounces as “ai” rather than “as”. For example, “¿Como estai?” rather than “¿Cómo estás?” It may sound strange at first, but it’s part of the beauty of the language.
