What many others said. Even if they used vocabulary totally unknown to me, it would sound like Spanish with more /sh/ sounds.

Honestly, to me it sounds like Asturian, though I’m very familiar with it as the Astur-Leonese languages were one of my research interests in grad school. Had I not studied it in grad school, I would probably say that it sounds like a European Portuñol.

That sounds very interesting. Can you tell me a bit more about what this involved?
