Maria22231ParticipantNo, you’re wrong. In the ‘Castilian’ dialect as you call it (though it’s the most common one throughout Spain)no one says ‘Buenath diath’–not only because ‘dia’ is *masculine* and so would take ‘buenOS’–but also because the ‘th’ sound is ONLY used for ‘z’ and ‘c’ when followed by ‘e’ or ‘i’. That’s it. There is only one dialect, spoken by a relatively small number of people, where people use this sound for the letter ‘s’ and that is the Cadiz dialect. NO ONE else speaks like that–in fact, in most of the rest of Andalucia, people use the ‘s’ sound for ‘z’ and ‘c’ as well–just like most Latin Americans. And, in any case, the Cadiz dialect is nowhere near being considered ‘correct’ or high-status, quite the opposite in fact, as many people in Spain use it for comic effect. (Not that I’m saying that’s good, mind you.) Anyway, why do presume to judge what dialect should be considered ‘proper’ for a language that you obviously only have a beginner’s level in? Peninsular Spanish is neither better nor worse than any other variety.
