It is quite different from the accent I am used to but (and this might be because I recently watched Les Invasions Barbares) I think it's charming. Ok, my turn! So, does anyone know what "Venezuela" means and how the country got its name? Joyeux Noël everyone!

Really? Does this happen only in English speaking countries or any country where the main language isn't Spanish (or Portuguese)? I know in France (at least at the FNAC) García Márquez is under G and Vargas Llosa under V. Back to the pronunciation of D..., what's the standard spelling of the...

Six :o Where in Canada do you live? I would love to go there someday, especially to Québec, love love love the accent :p
