Si, pero los Cubanos pueden hablan Espanol. No como los Mexicanos que cantaren algo que suena Espanol.

Yeah and that border Spanish mixed with English is a real butchered up language (troque, lunche etc)...Then again if the Puerto Ricans and Cubans could just speak a little slower it might be easier to understand for those in old USA with SSL (spanish as a second language). I know I can speak English fast enough that those who are fluent in it but a second language can’t understand me, but I go out of my way to enunciate and speak a little mas despacio when speaking with those who are not native speakers.

No es cierto! Los Cubanos caen sus "s"es. ".... it is characterized by elided middle consonants and omitted final consonants..."

"Pos," apparently the Cuban accent is the remnant of Spaniards from the Canary Islands, who settled in Cuba. They, too, treat middle consonants in a similar fashion.
