In general it's the same, but we have our own wrong way of conjugating verbs in the second person of singular (the informal you; in this case the very informal you)but know that just help you if you want go to Chile. I don't know exactly what it's the rule but I can give you some examples.

TENER : tú tienes / tú teni

QUERER : tú quieres / tú queri

IR : tú vas / tú vai

SER : tú eres / tú eri (and sometimes: tú soy)

JUGAR : tú juegas / tú jugai

PLANTAR : tú plantas / tú plantai

SALIR : tú sales / tú sali

PEDIR : tú pides / tú pedi

PS: I'm from Chile, obviously... xD and for that, maybe I wrote something wrong in English.

It is all the same.

Castellano is the name of the language.

If you go to the Spanish Royal Academy get to the conjugation of the verb and you will see.

The Spanish people use vosotros instead of ustedes.

If you want chilean slang that's something else but it isn't castellano.

Most if not all Spaniards speak castellano and that one is the official language of Spain along with other three co-official languages. Do not get deceived by anyone when you are told "I speak Spanish" as you should ask which one of the four languages accepted in Spain. If you say "I speak Castilian", then you will be speaking what every Hispanic country in America, Europe and Africa speak.

OK?
