Is there more than one kind of English? No, English is English differing only in accents and some idioms and expressions. Spanish is the same. But you can identify countries by the accents, such as Argentine Spanish or Mexican, Chilean, or Bolivian Spanish. All are Spanish, but all have different accents, as do many of the provinces of Spain.

There is only one "Spanish Language", but there are many regional and national dialects. Colombian Spanish differs from Puerto Rican Spanish, and Castilian Spanish differs from Ecuadorian Spanish, and the same can be said of Mexican Spanish and most other dialects, too.

in that order are the only ones who answered correctly.
How many times we have to repeat that Spanish is only one. Different accents, expressions (slangs), but is the same Spanish.
Spanish is Spanish.
According to all the rest apparently then the English they speak in the South and the English they speak in the North are two different english and like that 50 different, one for each state. (they have different accents).

Basically, there is only one Spanish, with the logical variations among different places, but still perfectly understandable for every Spanish speaker, except maybe for some very specific local lingos and slang

One language but just as in all languages you will find differences from location to location. For instance, in Spain you use the word say "el coche" to mean car. In Latin America you say "el caro". In Spain the letter "z" such as is used in los zapatos is pronounced much like a "th" sound. In Latin America the "z" sounds much more like an "s". The letter "j" is pronounced as a clean "h" sound in many cultures whereas in others it is a more throaty sound coming from the back of the throat. So one language difference dialects, slangs, and pronunciation.

Spanish, as any other spoken language, has many dialects, variations, several slangs, etc. There is almost complete analogy with English.

Spanish, Street Spanish, Castilian, And Cebuano. Every country that speaks Spanish has changed it just a little. Just like American and English.
