Tus datos están desactualizados, el país se llama ahora República de Boliguay 😂😂
I'm a native English speaker from the US, but I'm fluent in Spanish, and for me, the Argentinian version of Spanish is the most beautiful. I love their accent, the expressions, it just feels so unique. I love it. Les mando un abrazo con mucho amor a todos los argentinos! Saludos desde EEUU
Gracias hermano, seras bienvenido cuando gustes a la Argentina. Un compatriota tuyo que nos aprecia mucho tiene un canal aqui, su nombre es Dustin Luke. Un abrazo !! !!
@mharg6408 Muchas gracias hermano de verdad. Como me encantaria viajar a la Argentina y conocerla, pero economicamente no creo que sea posible lamentablemente. De todas maneras gracias y en cuanto al canal de Dustin Luke que me recomendaste acabo de subscribirme, a ver que tal sea su canal. Bueno mucho gusto en conocerte, Y por cierto, felicidades por haber ganado la Copa Mudial! Que alegria para los Argentinos me imagino.👍 Saludos!
Abrazo! Y no olvides que el argentino nace donde quiere. A vos te tocó nacer en otro país 😄
@@danielgonzale26 😀😄😀De verdad me esta pareciendo que si, desde hace mucho que llevo la Argentina en mi corazon con muco afecto. Saludos hermano!
I'm from Brazil and we used to see Argentinians as our rivals in South America. And it's fair! It's a great and beautiful nation.
I hope they recover from economic crisis and return to the place of prosperity and richness they once had.
Deep respect and admiration from Brazil!
Tive o prazer de visitar o Brasil, e posso dizer que temos mais em comun do que nos imaginamos, especialmente no interior de ambos paises. Abraço!
All of the disadvantages that is happening in latin America are caused by the United States.
@@alpha_9944 hahaha, no way. US is not that important. Argentina had a bigger economy than USA in the late 1800s. And not thanks to them, but to their own efforts and merits. In the same way, it felt by its own corruption and stupid anti-free marketing policies. Just as all of Latin America.
@@bernardobuffa2391 Saludos, Bernardo!
Tenemos cosas y culturas en comun, especialmente en pequenas ciudades (como hablaste), pero no solo...
En las grandes ciudades tambien.
Buenos Aires tiene muchas cosas en comun con la capital de São Paulo, pero creo que con Porto Alegre tambien.
😊
I love the culture of Argentina!!!
Hugs from Brazil❤️❤️❤️
I understand why most people are amazed by the landscapes of the Andes, Iguazu, Patagonia, the highlands (Altiplano) and the Atlantic coast of Argentina.
Personally, however, I was very impressed by the Pampas plains. It is literally a sea of green. The prairie stretches to the horizon. Flat in all directions. Coming from a slightly mountainous country where one square metre is not at the same height as the next metre, I really felt in the middle of an ocean of grass.
I've been to Ushuaia. Argentina's Patagonia region (along with Chile) is one of the most amazing and beautiful areas I've ever been to. If you get a chance to go, do not hesitate.
Anch'io ci sono stato. Sono partito da Còrdoba dove ho parenti e ho affittato una jeep.
9:50 "In 1983 the country transitioned to democracy, and has been politically stable ever since"
2001 Argentina---> 5 different presidents in a week
That wasn’t as crazy as it sounds though. There weren’t 4 military coups in a week or something. One president resigned, then there was an acting president, then an actual president was appointed, but he resigned because he didn’t have support, then another acting president was chosen until the next actual president could be appointed. So it’s really three presidents, two of whom resigned. It was over a 12 day period.
True. But no regime change for nearly 40 years, so yes, I kind of agree with his statement.
@@CB0408 i still preffer that over a military coup though
The very first thing that jumps to my mind when mentioning Argentina is Yerba Mate, my absolute favorite beverage. Fun fact, thanks to the significant community of Syrian migrants in Argentina, Mate is wildly popular and its consumption is as high as tea or coffee. Now in Germany, my coworkers in the office wonder, what kind of "weed" I drink :D
When the Syrians and Lebanese arrived in Argentina they fell in love with our mate, over the years many of them returned to their homelands. This is how so much yerba mate is consumed in those countries, adopting it as their own and spreading the custom and ritual throughout Western Asia. I have blood in my veins from great-grandparents who came to Argentina from Aleppo.
Big hug from Argentina.
Estoy viviendo en Irlanda y trabajo en Deli asi que en mis breaks me tomo unos matienzos y mis compas estan asi como...wtf. Ahora los vendo LOL
@@fernandovelezvega I have just seen your comment from over a year ago by chance. What a lovely coincidence! All the love to you and your family, bro. I hope I would visit Argentina someday to get to know the beautiful country and nice people.. and drink some mate 🧉of course :). Cheers
Mis antepasados vinieron de Damasco, saludos desde Argentina amigo.
@@loboar2808 greetings to you, my friend. 🧉
How many generations back your ancestors migrated to Argentina?
Mesopotamia surprised me. At first I thought that there's some confusion). Thank you Paul. Argentina is homeland for two most prominent footballer Messi and Maradona.
And Alfredo Di Stefano.
And Mário Kempes.
And many wonderful goalkeepers (like Fillol, for exemple).
From a Brazilian fan.
Salute from São Paulo.
the reason it is called Mesopotamia is because, just like the middle eastern region, it is a location "in-between" two important rivers... in the Argentina case, they are the Uruguay and the Paraná rivers
It would be even more confusing if he had referred to the region as the "littoral", as many do (despite the fact that it's not really on the coast)
@@Diego.Ambrosini Beautiful nature too.
@@eduardocajias5626 Obrigado irmao, abrazo
I've never been to South America, but Argentina is probably the place I'd like to visit the most. Interesting to learn it has a relatively high Jewish population, I didn't know that.
This is true and the city of Buenos Aires and some other cities have a very active business Jewish community!
Always welcome!
¡Paul.... venite para Argentina... te vamos a recibir con los brazos abiertos...!!!! 👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍
Awesome video! just small detail, Rioplatense dialect which is known as "Argentinian Spanish" is only spoken in central/east and southern Argentina along with Uruguay. The central/west, north and most of Cordoba speak other dialects.
Another interesting minority language is the Welsh spoken by a small group of Welsh Argentinians in Chubut province in Patagonia. These Welshmen emigrated there to save the Welsh language in the late 19th century and some of them still speak the local dialect of Patagonian Welsh and preserve old Welsh culture. For example they bake a traditional Welsh fruit cake for christmas - which is called "torta negra galesa" in Spanish.
Great video! In high school, I dated a girl who was born in Italy but grew up in Argentina before she moved to the USA as a teen. Take care.
When I lived in Argentina, I got to know a very different country from what many are used to knowing. It is a fascinating country, with exciting, cheerful, very hospitable people who love to party, and are always helping you with whatever you need. It has a remarkable nature, especially in the region where I lived in the extreme south of Patagonia, which is extremely cold all year round.
Unfortunately, what destroys this amazing country is its disastrous Politics and Economy, which for years is always having problems, affecting society.
*too much partying to the point of taking few things seriously, I should add. Born and raised there.
Where in Patagonia did you live? Greetings from Rio Gallegos
One small thing: the game against England in 1986 was in the quarter-finals
The hand of God. 😎⚽️
@@davidpearson3304 RIght before the most beautiful goal in World Cup history. 😁⚽
Thank you for mentioning the Jewish minority in Argentina! My wife is half Agentinian on her mother side. My mother-in-law immigrated (made aliya) from Argentina to Israel when she was only 12, so she have many fond childhood memories from that place. There is still some family there, and we plan to take a trip to Argentina to meet them one day.
Jewish diaspora is really present here, most of them live in Buenos Aires. Thanks for sharing your mother-in-law's story!
Argentina has the biggest jewish community in Latinoamérica
Mr Lerner I was born and grew up in Buenos Aires; went to Catholic school and one of my Latin teachers name was Lerner.
Jewish people are mainly concentrated in the Buenos Aires' neiborhood of Once. There you can see lot of men wearing kippah, synagogues, and kosher grocery stores
@@CarlosEsquivel71 and dont forget we have the only kosher mcdonalds outside of israel
Argentinian spanish takes vocabulary from quechua as well.
And two little mistakes:
1. Quilmes ruins are pre-incaic.
2. We've beaten England in quarter finals in 1986 (thank god)
Thanks for showing our country to the world. Keep on !
Not to mention it also excels regarding the food and desserts. Really good food, great amounts and relatively cheap
Magnífico. Gracias Paul!
I was waiting for this video. Thanks Paul.
Excelente video, como siempre.
Thanks!
Being a fan of Langfocus and also a geography addict, finding the Geofocus channel was a real treat. This was a very accurate depiction of my birth country! Thank you for acknowledging the Jewish population in Argentina, and also for pronouncing Ushuaia correctly - this is not common in English language videos, but since you are a language enthusiast I'm not surprised you were meticulous on that. Also... thank you for including "RE-COPADO" on the video title :)
You are what’s incredible! Wonderful video!
Thank you so much, Inez! :)
Man, your videos are superb! I'm from Rio Grande, Tierra del Fuego, and I've been following your content since the start of the pandemic, keep up the amazing work as always!
Being from Argentina originally, I would like people to know that in Argentina there is that true care for one another, either in family, friends, marriage, couple relationships that are lacking in countries like the US or other first-world countries. It is an example to be imitated.
¡Gracias por compartir de Argentina! Me gustó el video 👍🏼👍🏼
Good video, although you screwed up a lot with the meaning of the flag, the sky and clouds story is just what little kids says XD
In 1810 Napoleon invaded Spain and removed the king to put his brother. Many people in Argentina at that time oppose the new king and stand in favor of the old king, including Manuel Belgrano who designed the flag based on the colors of the house of Bourbon, the house of the Spanish royal family. If you look for images of the King of Spain in that moment Fernando VII (Ferdinand 7) you will find pictures of him with a light blue and white band on his chest, from there came the design of the Argentine flag and although the revolution ended with the country getting rid of the power of the kings, the flag had already become popular and stayed. The sun of May, is the representation of Inti, the Inca god of the sun, was added later to represent the sovereignty of the natives of America.
I may ad the sun of May was only displayed on official government flags!
Great video as always. Well done Paul!
Thanks, Omri! 🙌🏼
Thank you Paul! I am Argentinian and I'm glad you talked about us. Hope we can solve the many problems we are having (politically speaking). Lots of love!!!
Thanks again for another great video Paul. Your videos are always a fun way to relax. Best wishes 👍😎🍷
Thanks, Maria! That's lovely to hear. :)
I just realized that I've been saying "Ushuaia" the wrong way for at least 40 years. 🤣
Sometimes I can't grasp the concept of the "muted H" although there's the same thing in Portuguese, Italian and even in German.
Thank you for sharing, Paul! Have a nice weekend.
It’s my pleasure!
Actually, I had to look up the pronunciation of that place name. I wasn’t confident I knew how to say it right, and it turns out I didn’t. 😊
You too, have a nice weekend!
@katerpudy No, no, Paul said it right. The h is silent, just think as it is not there. The U's are pronounced like the U's in "put", the A's are pronounced like the A's as in "fat", and the I is pronounced as if you were saying "eye".
On the other hand, sometimes we like to joke around about "U-'sh'-uaia" and pronounce the Sh and in "shop", but that's uncommon and we being silly on purpose.
Ushuaia comes from yagán, a patagonic language, that's why it's different from usual spanish. It means «deep bay».
I have to say it was completely on point! History, geography, and pronunciation!!
I didn't knew you had a second channel, I love learning about languages with your videos.
Thanks! How did you discover this second channel?
@@GEOfocusChannel A friend of mine living abroad recommended me this video. Never knew about this second channel but so far is awesome, saw like 5 videos in one sitting. I really appreciate the simplicity of them. No annoying music or transitions. Good job!
Edit: grammar.
Thanks!
I see, thanks for letting me know. This channel is still small, so I’m thinking about the best ways to help people discover it. Until yesterday, none of the thumbnails had my face in them, so a lot of Langfocus viewers have probably skipped these videos without knowing I made them. I changed this video’s thumbnail as a test.
@@GEOfocusChannel Good choice! And thanks for your effort.
I love how your videos are always so thoroughly researched yet concise, while being meticulous and very articulate. I learnt about the languages spoken in Chaco, as well as several of the world ranking data facts (3rd largest border & highest mountain outside of Asia, especially).
Fun fact: I was born right at the end of the Falklands War, on June 14, 1982!
I was cursing at the idiotic Argentine generals fighting for las Islas Malvinas!
As an Argentinian, what I can say is that we redefined the fine art of corruption. Its a shame its rampant.
Aside from that, there is a flourishing wine region in the province of Cordoba. This region is called Calamuchita, and they are making incredible wines that can compete 1:1 with the Mendoza wines! Must visit!
amazing video very precise 👍 fun fact : the first Lady has lebanese ancestry.. Many lebanese immigrated to south America in the time of ottoman empire.. In fact there's lebanese in South America more than there is in Lebanon 😊.
Lots of love from Lebanon to Argentine ❤️. Ps : lots of us support u in football ⚽😁😂❤️❤️❤️
Thanks a lot for showing in depth video
Just a little mistake: depending on the source, the Aconcagua is 6961 or 6959 m high; so it's even higher (by 30 m) than what the video says. The rest of the video is pretty accurate. Source: me, I'm Argentinian and a nerd for this stuff. Greetings.
There's a mistake in the age of Pope Francis as well, which I noted above!
Es un excelente video, Paul. Muy descriptivo y muy completo. Ojalá puedas viajar a mi país para conocerlo personalmente. Saludos desde ARG. 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Good video Paul!
Mi país mi país 🇦🇷 ❤
I didn’t know that this channel existed as I’ve always followed you on LangFocus. When I came here the first thing I did was looking for my country and here it is. Thank you so much. The information is accurate and very respectful on your part.
As regards your question, I’d like people to know that it’s a great country full of touristic attractions, as you very well described. Also, the nightlife here is on point! 🎉 Lastly, we pride ourselves on our meat and wine 😌
People are very friendly and will invite you to join.
Thanks again! I love your channels!
👏🏽😎✨😘
Surprising to me was that indigenous languages are official in certain parts of the country. (Glad to hear it.) Surprising for its absence was any mention of Argentinian wine.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the Welsh community in Patagonia!
0.0001% del population.
It's kind of fake Welsh there now. Only some family names remain.
Yes, Argentina is fascinating! I didn't know there were jaguars in Argentina, that's a new thing I've learned :)
What did I learn? Even the current pope was actually Italian. Rome still wants their people to be popes :)
Estupendo vídeo, como habitualmente. Muchas gracias. 👍
Regarding the disappeared in 1976-1983, the real amount given by the government during the trials was 6,000, but the number 30,000 was given by the left parties that increased the amount to obtain compensation from a company in the Netherlands.
Exactly!
Nice video, I think the best places to visit here are our national parks such as Ibera, iguazú, pilcomayo nat reserve, peninsula valdez nat reserve, nahuel huapi and many other secret corners
Good video. As someone who lives there, the first thing that comes to mind is the government's absolute lack of interest in doing good for its community. We did not have so many slums 20 years ago. They let them grow. They barred people from saving in their own currency with the inflation and then set limits to buying foreign currency, making the peso worth even less. They taught them that being an opportunist was somehow better than planning with social plans and subsidies that, as we learnt later, were unsustainable. Argentines used to believe in their country, now the younger generation is trying to leave. I do not know if there is going to be a solution to this, maybe we need a big change to fix this failed democracy. The truth is that nobody knows or has the intelligence to solve it.
Going to Argentina to escape persecution in the early->mid 20th century seems a bit tragic given what would shortly come to pass in Argentina.
as an argentine, i want to thank you for making a video about my country 🇦🇷, take care Paul.
Argentina is my favourite South American country 🇦🇷
Why were so many Italians moving there at that time? Was it because of the political changes in their homeland? This is really new information for me.
I had heard about Italians living in the region from the Ecolinguist video with a Lunfard speaker, but I thought it was just some relatively small community like in the US.
You can read about Blanqueamiento but Argentina wasn't the only country to participate
@@laexploradoraaaXD WTF? STFU
During the last half of the XIX Century, America was seen as a land of opportunity for the lower classes in Europe. It just happened that Italy had no former colonies here, so they moved to Southern Brazil and Argentina because of the culture still being Latin, just like germanic immigrants ended up mostly in the US
My father migrated to Argentina in 1924 as a teenager; mostly due to a better way of life than in Italy at that time. Then in 1962 I migrated to the USA and I've here for 60 years now.
Great video! I live in Santa Fe, which is in the Litoral region of the country, which I haven't seen in the video.
Amazing video!! I love all of your content (specially LangFocus).
Just wanted to share however that Argentina's economy is far from stable. Our real inflation is higher than the one that is published on Wikipedia for example, and the level of corruption is remarkably high and aweful really. In fact, in Capital Federal (where I'm from), even though I agree that it has a lot of mid-high class people, there's a lot of poverty and homeless people. Actually if you take a 15 minute drive to the metropolitan area you would be shocked about the high level of poverty you would find. You don't even have to go away from Capital Federal to see what I'm talking about.
It's a shame really, because, as you said, as a hole it's a beautiful country.
Warm regards Paul, keep it up!!!
Great video :)
Re cheto mi país ameoo
😲😲😲 Argentina has 20 million tons of LITHIUM, 40 thousand cubic kilometers of potable WATER and can supply 360 million people daily... Huge OIL reserves and the second GAS reserve in the world. Not to mention the claims for Antarctica and Malvinas.
You forgot to add the province of Neuquen to Patagonia
Great information. 👍
Very well done video. But you didn’t explain more about the “rioplatense” Spanish dialect, that’s an amazing example. I hope you will do it soon.
1986 game Argentina--England wasn't a semifinal, it was a quarter final.
re copado your video!!!!! :D
"A significant number of people in the Pampas region are indigenous people that speak Guarani"???? WHAAAATTTTT????
Hey Paul, I know on Lang focus you promote the Geofocus channel for a few seconds at the very end of your videos, but I would promote it for a few seconds at the very start of your videos. If you promote it at the end there’s a good chance some of your viewers don’t watch your videos all the way through and won’t see the few seconds at the end of the video, whereas if you talk about it for a few seconds at the beginning of the video everyone will see it. And if you’re not already I would post on Twitter and other social medias that you uploaded a video on this channel when you upload one.
Thanks! That’s a good idea. I have posted about a couple of GEOfocus videos on IG and Twitter, but that brings in fewer people than a message of the Langfocus RUclips would.

It's interesting how the percentage of Argentines who claim Italian ancestry correlates with the percentage of the country that is Catholic.
We're not catholic beacsue of Italians, we're catholic because of Spanish colonization.
@@murakyo79 You're right; but you can't discount most o the Italian migrants who were also Catholic!
Good video, but just one bone to pick. Iguazu is in Argentina, not Spain, so why the Castilian pronunciation of the Z in "Iguazu"? :)
Well, original my pronunciation was flat out wrong (in different ways) and one of my team members (who’s from Spain) modeled the pronunciation for me. So I decided to copy exactly how he said it to be safe. Not perfect I guess, but better than before.
Picky,, picky, picky! He made a very nice video; I'll just leave it at that!
You have a little mistake I live in La Pampa province and I haven't heard anybody speak any variant of Guaraní, and I haven't seen indigenous people or descents of indigenous people either. I'm not saying there aren't indigenous people at all in La Pampa, but the percentage is really low here. And definitely I haven't heard anyone speaking in Guaraní.

05:20 what most surprised me is that you included "Los Cuernos del Paine" as part of the Argentine Patagonia, which, in fact, are part of the Chilean Patagonia in the Torres del Paine National Park in the Magallanes Region.
If I recall correctly, that photo was labelled with "Argentina" in the keywords, and when I looked it up, the location was near the border, so I assumed the view in the image was from the Argentinian side.

@@GEOfocusChannel You are welcome, Paul.
Paul: In 1983 Argentina transitioned to democracy and it has been politically stable ever since
in 2001-02 Argentina had five fucking different Presidents in a matter of two weeks.
Are you sure about that Paul?
Well, it was really three if you exclude the interim presidents who became president automatically. One president was removed, so there was really one more than usual - three instead of two.
@@GEOfocusChannel The total sum is five! But I think three is STABLE enough for a country. Don't you think?

Im sorry but, Kilmes are NOT INCAS, is an autoctonous group,only im Argentina. They share a lot with diaguitas, that are both sides from the andes. Kilmes resisted from inca expasion and spanish colonization. It was the bigest indigenous group in the country. They spoke kakán wich is tecnicaly dead but they are trying to recover it.
Greeting from Quimes the city in the buenos aires province where they send this civilization to die. We are tough who we in school.
Ps. The sun in the flag is actually an inca sun, is an inca symbol. The guy that created the flag was fully aware of ut and believe that the inca's or indigenous rule should be restablish
Paraguay and its filial Uruguay 😅😅
You should study a litle bit more about Las malvinas issue, becouse the UK invade this islands in 1833 when there were an Argentinian governor Luis Maria Vernet, with an Argentinian population and from that moment on Argentinian request to the UK sovereignty over this lands. Also you need to know that the UK Try to invade Argentinian territory in 1806 and 1807 invading Buenos Aires and being expulsed by Argentinian peoples Army. I recomend not to speak in such sensitive topic for Argentinians in a video that try to explain about the language

7:26 What?? high standard of living? I was born and raised in Argentina, Buenos Aires has by no means the standard of living of the United States, Canada or Europe, unless maybe for a minority of the people, whereas here his statement should be understood as the majority of the population.
Surely he means the HDI which is very high. There are almost 200 countries in the world therefore it is not only composed by The US, Canada and the richest part of Europe. I was born and raised in Argentina and I feel so lucky to be part of this country instead of most of the countries of the world, even with all the problems we have.

I'm no expert on Argentina but the first thing that comes to my mind when I hear that country is economic instability over the past 50 years. Though at least you're in much better shape right now than Venezuela...then again who isn't?
@@Gavriel-og6jv ¿Un video de un caso particular? de cualquier país del mundo vas a encontrar gente que se fue y te va a decir que no volvería nunca, no podes usar un caso particular para hablar en nombre del resto. Si vas a la población y no un caso puntual, Argentina es de los países latinoamericanos con menos emigración al exterior, y a la vez de los que más inmigrantes latinoamericanos recibe.
Con inflación y todo, sigue teniendo una calidad de vida por encima de la gran mayoría de países del mundo y de casi toda Latinoamérica. Nadie dijo que está a la par de las potencias de Europa (que son la gran minoría de países del mundo). De nuevo, el mundo tiene casi 200 países.

Malvinas do not share maritime border with Argentina, since they are part ot Argentina.
no fueron 30000
payaso
Como lo sabe? Los conto' personalmente?; es posible que el numero es exagerado pero aun si fueran 15,000 es un acto the salvajismo y venganza!
Another amazing video....thank you.
So sad that Socialist policies, especially government after government meddling in the free market,
have held Argentina back for years.
Really enjoyed my trip to Buenos Aires
...it's like Madrid, Paris, and New York City combined.
Ah,
the Alfajores/Argentinian cookies are wonderfully addictive :)
Madrid, Paris, and NYC - wow, that's an amazing combination!
We never ever had socialist governments. We've been bouncing between France-like welfare policies and Somalia-like liberalism, ever since the 30s crisis, that was the equivalent of Arabia running out of oil.
Buenos Aires was called the Paris of South America!
