This time I'll analize how foreigners speak Spanish.
The British vice prime minister Nick Clegg speaks this way. Check the video.
My comments are that he's fluent. If I didn't know his nacionality I wouldn't say that he's British. He has a spanish accent when speaking. Everybody can understand him regardless the few mistakes he did, but that's acceptable. In spanish although people speak gramatically wrong any spanish native speaker can get them.
Now lets see Nelly Furtado.
She is very brave at speaking Spanish. We can listen some mistakes in the gender words.
Let's now see Michelle Rodriguez.
She is very good at Spanish, I could notice only one mistake when she says "succeso" instead of "éxito". She does it very well because her family is "latina" and she must have learned the language at home.
The last person is Robert from a tv program called GEM
He is very fluent at Spanish. Although he has been living in Mexico for years, he can't get rid of his American accent. Most of the American people when speaking Spanish have a similar accent, unless they come from a latina's family
No matter what accent they have everybody can understand them when Speaking Spanish.
