why is spanish so distributed?
Good question! It's likely because there are lots of different accents of Spanish that are distinct from each other. Our labels only capture the native language of the speaker right now, so they're all grouped together but it's definitely on our to-do list to go deeper into the sub accents of each language family!

Spanish is one of those languages I would love to see as a breakdown by country. I’m sure Chilean Spanish looks very different from Catalonian Spanish.

Did you mean Catalan (which is not Spanish) or Castilian Spanish?

#35Apparently Persian and Russian are close. Which is surprising to say the least. I know people keep getting confused about how Portuguese from Portugal and Russian sound close yet the Persian is new to me.
I thought I was the only one who perceived an audible similarity between Portuguese and Russian.

#38Going mono-tonal to that of an expressive ebook increased my "American English" score from a 52% to 92%. I'd suggest training a little less on audio books.

Yes the Spanish spoken in Spain, especially the one that’s like /ˈɡɾaθjas/ and /baɾθeˈlona/.
