Supo qué Castellano es el español de España y Americano es la dialecto (creo escribo en espanglés) en las Américas.

¿Por qué España usan "vos", "vuestros" y algunos paises hablante-españoles usan "voseo" y todo el mundo usan "usted"?

it is the same though spanish as well as english has dialects in every country where it is spoken, for example guagua in Cuba means bus, and in Argentina means small child. you have to be careful to whom you talk because depending on the spanish speaking country, you can use a word that for you is correct but, sometimes, in that country has a sexual meaning and some people consider it rude. Another example, the word papaya, also in the english language, in cuba is related to women's sexual organs, that is why, in Cuba the common word for that fruit is fruta bomba, people consider the other word unproper and do not use it in dayly speech unless they are making a joke about the topic, among males is common but not in front of women. ope the lesson suits you.

La Castellana es un poco mas formal. Tambien los Espanoles usan el Vosotros, que no se usa en la mayoria de los paises latinos. Tambien, la pronunciacion puede ser un poco diferente (especialmente en cuanto a las letras 'c' and 'z')
