Spanish is spanish
I don't really understand when people ask which Spanish is the best or original. I think the best spanish depends what country you are planning to visit. I like different Spanish accents, modisms, because it makes us to be differents and by different I mean that these small details make a country unique. It is amazing that even when you are a Spanish speaker you can't understand local words of certain communities or countries, Even in Mexico we have different accent and I can't understand a few words from the North of Mexico, I come from the south of Mexico; I use some maya words in my daily speaking, because it is the way my grandparents speak and I learnt from them to speak spanish . I speak spanish/maya, I mean I speak Spanish but I also use modisms from my state, i think if you want to be part of certain group; you should to learn some things about the group you want to belong to understand and adapt yourself . It was funny when I first met my friends from Mexico city; they only understood half conversation. They had to interrupt me every time I say a unknown word for them.

Hi Angeles, I utterly agree with you. I am a Spanish speaker from Spain, and the idea of seeing any variant of our language as the most original or appropriate or whatever just looks rather dumb to me. People who starts learning Spanish shouldn't worry about which one is better, but get themselves into the language wherever it comes from. With time, they will be noticing the differences between regions and countries and they will be able to build a more consistent knowledge of the language by focusing on one of them. And, as you said, that choice should come from a practical point of view such as which country they are visiting or maybe which culture they feel more attracted to.
