I try hard to focus primarily on expressions that are used universally or are easily understood by native Spanish speakers regardless of geography and nationality. That said, I will admit that I am partial to Castilian Spanish since I'm living in Spain and the bulk of my exposure to the Spanish language has been of the Iberian-Peninsula variety. Your question inspired me to write a blog entry about this, so you can find a much longer response from me here: :) http://spanish-podcast.com/2009/06/19/colloquial-spanish/ ¡Gracias por leer!
