Which spanish speaking country speaks the slowest in everyday conversation?Normal people dont sound "novela".

I've been to Panama, Mexico, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Guatemala,and Belize,and while in those countries,I have spoken with people from surrounding countries (Nicaragua,Salvador,Colombia,etc.).I also live near the border of Mex/US.I think that Mexicans are the easiest to understand because they seem to speak slower and more pronounced to me.Does anyone agree with this, or am I just nutty?Additionally, I noticed that the spanish on the spanish channels is not the way people sound in real life most of the time. Nobody sounds even remotely like a telenovela "down there".My first few days in Panama I had smoke coming out of my ears,and noticed a huge difference when I heard the Mexicanos when I got home, and I felt fluent again.BTW español is my segundo language.Thanks for your input,mis amigos del internet!ciao!

The most correct, best Spanish is spoken in Colombia, in Bogota, to be exact.
Is used in the media industry - voiceovers, film, translation, interpreters, etc.
After Colombia, the Spanish spoken by the Costa Ricans is one of the clearest in the region (http://wikitravel.org/en/Costa_Rica)

Colombian speak spanish really well (mostly bogotans). Mexicans they speak really weird, and say weird words. Venezuelans (especially from Caracas and around) dont have any accent. U pick ;)

There are two countries that speak the slowest spanish. Colombia and Guatemala. In both countries all the vowels and consonants are pronounciated correctly without "eating" any letter. I dont agree that in Costa Rica they speak good spanish, since they are the only spanish speaking country that does not pronounciate the "r" correctly (they sound like americans trying to pronunciate the r).
Proof that in Guatemala and Colombia they speak the best spanish is the number of spanish schools available in these countries. Check this website... www.aroundantigua.com

Colombians speak well but I don't think they are the slowest, in fact Caribbean accent is kind of fast
Try Ecuador, or Bolivia, or Northwest Argentina

Texas yes Texas is a whole different country and the Tejanos do speak Spanish slower than most other Spanish Speakers.
