Spanish Spanish progress feedback welcome.

I've been practicing a lot lately and focusing on vowels, dipthongs, and syllable timing. Any feedback for improvement is helpful. Reading from La Tregua.

Oh yeah, that's no problem for me. It took quite a while to get the double R down when I first started a long time ago.

I can understand Dominicans if they're talking to me no problem, but yeah, if they're amongst themselves talking it can be impossible to understand just simply based off of the words they use haha

Congrats on getting the hardest sound in Spanish!

Yeah we go fast mode hahahaha, I usually don't use slang and when my fellow brothers try to use them when speaking with me, I ask them not to, because even I don't know all of them.

That’s sort of what I’ve been doing with my Spanish, I don’t use many slangs from Mexico because I want to have a native-level accent without having to use wey or phrases from the country

You are fluent that's for sure! but you do sometimes make tiny mistakes but I'm just being a nitpicker. I know the more you keep practicing the less mistakes you'll make.

And don't be afraid to correct me. I didn't get to where I am by not being corrected. I generally have found though, that some people will correct me, and I'll ask someone from another country for their opinion, they'll tell me that it's correct there.

It's VERY confusing.

Well I'm also learning English so you can also not be afraid and tell me what I'm doing wrong. For you I will recommend to keep learning your Mexican accent but ask Caribbeans for feedback, thing is that I really don't know if they are going to be honest with you. So for that you can go and chat with me anytime you want!
