This is so beautiful! The people of Ecuatorial Guinea are charming and speak Spanish beautifully. There is a tendency to idolize those of fairer complexions that speak Spanish but the world is larger than people's minds!
That's why i HATE telemundo they ignore us Afro latinos! I'm a afrodominican from Samana, even my own dominicans look at me with curiosity My name Jose Guzman-Jackson
Actually, they speak with a very special accent, that it could be said it's a mix of Spain and Caribbean Islands like Cuba, Santo Domingo or Puerto Rico. But there is something very local about their accent.
I am very proud of being from my country(EQUATORIAL GUINEA) although things aren't going as I WOULD LIKE THEM TO. and I am most of all proud of being from the only country that speaks Spanish in the entire continent of Africa. If you want to know about my country just contact me. I'd be happy for helping you to know.
the country of equatorial guinea is beautiful. How's the tourism there? I'd like to go there someday, as a native spanish speaker myself. I think it'd be the best african country to visit for me.
Si te soy sicero colega, te digo que todo es mierda en mi país. Todo, absolutamente todo está controlado por el presidente y su familia. ¿Turismo aquí? Bueno, no sé mucho de turismo, pero creo que habrá unpoco. Tenemos una playa muy hermosa que se llama arena blanca, unas hermosas catarratas, un coplejo turístico llamado el amanecer de Mbini que se encuentra obviamente en Mbini, etc. En fin, no me gustaría que te lleves una decepción. Pero si realmente quieres venir ya lo verás todo. El caso es que los Ecuatoguineanos no tenemos dinero, aquí un funcionario del estado cobra entre 200€ y 400€ mensualmente. No creo que se pueda hacer mucho con esto. Colega, hay demasiado que contar. Mejor lo dejo hasta aquí.
Gracias por la respuesta. You're cool as hell. That sucks about Equatorial Guinea though. Would you think it's comparable to Nigeria, or is Equatorial Guinea poorer? Also, do you live there? Or are you in America/England etc.? I still think it's so weird that there's an African country speaks spanish haha
How is your new capital city coming along, and why is it being built in the first place? Also, Portuguese is one of your official languages. How many people actually know Portuguese? Best wishes to your country and cheers from the USA.
I live in Eq. Guinea. I've always lived here. I know nothing about Nigeria, just that they have plenty of crude. The new capital is being built in the forest in the district of Añisok (my hometown) because the gorvenment is safer there according to the President. Malabo is still the capital. Nobody speaks portuguese here. We only speak spanish and a bit of french.
You must love corruption!! Obiang is the evil personified, they have more money then the whole country combined. They have billions and stashed away in France, America etc. the people have 1 one dollar a day and you love it?? I hope the people will rise and justice will rule. Nobody sais anything because they ae afraid to end up dead. Its the most corrupt country in the world and Obiang are very proud of it.
@@christophlieding734 Most blacks who think like that love corruption, dictatorship and communism. They don't understand; they only see race, and fail to assess the bigger picture, especially Black Americans.
@The alien in your backyard Why should Dominicans speak like Spaniards? Maybe they have their own unique identity. What's do great about speaking like those racist Spaniards anyway?
@@listenup2882 At least the Spanish speaking Africans still speak their native language in addition to Spanish such as Equatorial Guinea and Western Sahara unlike central and south America where the majority only speak Spanish and most original native languages are extinct. There's nothing wrong with learning a foreign language, as it has many benefits to it. Also if you're going ahead with criticizing Africans "mimicking their colonial masters" then the same can be said about the majority of the countries in this world and people not speaking their native languages has existed ever since the first humans learned to communicate. Also judging from your name, it's french, why do you speak Engish since it ain't your "native language".
these people in Malabo are linguist, they can speak french, spanish, english and some can speak russian and german. I worked here before for 4 years in Marathon Company...
Only ignorants will get surprised seeing Africans speaking spanish. In fact North Morocco and also Southernmost Morocco (which is still Africa speaks Spanish too). But y'all saying it's weird seeing Africans speaking Spanish BUT you forget that Africans speaking English,French or Portuguese it's weird too! And yes Ecuato-Guineans speak Castillan Spanish BUT if you re a Spanish speaker you will understand that for MOST OF THEM their accent is not exactly like Spaniards and its easy to understand that they re not people from Spain.
And Spanish is spoken with different accents depending the country you're in. When I come to African people expect them to speak in an "Ugah Bughah" way. Smfh.
Siempre he querido saber como hablan los Guineanos Ecuatoriales y ahora me doy cuenta de que es uno de los pocos lugares en donde se distingue la "C y la Z"
@ukusapillage Spain has built tons of infrastructures and urban projects in Malabo, also the 3 main airports of the country that have been built and later rebuilt (after the independence) by the Spaniards. Most teachers in the country are also from Spain, which offers free scholarships to the most talented students. It's obvious that they're close to each other, and in addition half of Guinea's population has moved to Spain between 1968 and the 1990s.
Genial, pensé que sería un poco diferente el español de Guinea Ecuatorial, pero se parece al acento de españa.. aunque algunas palabras las pronuncian extraño.. debe ser por la influencia de otros idiomas en africa.. Un saludo a todos, desde Venezuela.. :D
Equatorial Guineans, you are all so beautiful. Your black skin and your physical structure is so beautiful! Wow! 👌🏾 (Guineans ecuatorial, usted es todos tan hermosos. ¡Su piel negra y su estructura física son tan hermosas! ¡Wow!) 👌🏾
@auctionguy5 En Guinea Ecuatorial se habla español porque fue colonia española hasta hace unos 45 años. Pero no es el único país de habla española en Africa, también se habla español en el Sahara Occidental, que también fue colonia española.
The MOST corrupt country in the world, something the Obiang are proud of. They have more money then the whole country combined. I hope the people will rise and justice should rule.
A modern language can provide a huge head start for developing nations. I'd like to see projects to modernize African languages. Languages carry the knowledge and philosophy of the nations within them, and are profoundly important for developing intelligence.
I pray n hope the imperialists Britain, US and NATO do not do a Libya in Equatorial Guinea. Britain has already tried to plot a coup n failed so I hope we do not see that happen again. Africa needs a stable and successful Equatorial Guinea.
i believe bad government is much better than having none, from my experience in Somalia that we dont have a functioning government since 1991, im really jealous that such this place is in africa, Somalia could also be one of the richest countries in africa but unfortunately we have an endless fight
The key to development of Africa is building LOCAL capacity. Native engineers, doctors, nurses, teachers, building contractors, lawyers, accountants, etc. The "study abroad work at home" program that they are using for medicine should also be developed for ALL career tracks. It should gradually be phased out over the years to ensure that the country does not become too dependent on learning abroad and develops ways to train new workers in various fields. EG should also host professional conferences in various fields and encourage workers to attend and go to conferences in other countries. EG is a small country and small countries can develop VERY QUICKLY. You guys can be there by 2035
I've never traveled to any country on that continent but I plan on doing so as soon as I can find the time. Do you have family in EG or were you there for other reasons? What African country would you recommend for someone who's never been?
don`t expect to be treated fair by the devil when play with him, and that he has done(the western countries ans the oil companies) now it`s my personal wish to see that people in EG enjoy and benefit from the blessings they have in their beautiful coutry
@Dan013s Ahora veo. No puedo encontrar libros de escritores ecuatoguineos. Yo quería leer la literatura para comprender más sobre el país. ¿De donde eres?
Por otro lado, es cierto que desde el descubrimiento de petróleo en 1996, el Estado ecuatoguineano ha incrementado considerablemente sus ingresos. Sin embargo, la mayor parte se los lleva la familia Obiang y sus colaboradores. En Guinea Ecuatorial, el Estado tiene una riqueza media, pero el pueblo es pobre. Lo mismo ocurre en Venezuela o Brasil.
I myself come from an oil rich african country but it will be silly to deny much economical progress made today in Equatorial Guinea. Can you use some economic indicators to compare standards among those oil rich african countries .I ve been there and i saw a country in full continuous transformation. If you think more need to be done go there and act with actions no just talk.I dont work or collaborate with any regime, we all need to see a modernised Africa .
I don't know what to believe when it comes to Equatorial Guinea. I've watched & read all the negative press (which all come from western countries) about how horribly poor & oppressed the citizens there are & how corrupt the gov is. But I also have some skepticism because I know a little about history. I compare it to the smear campaign the west & the Belgium's launched against Patrice Lumumba the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED premiere of The Congo & everything being said about EG is exactly the same.
Obiang is continuing the tyranny of Macias. Equatorial Guinea is on a par with Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Israel and North Korea in my opinion. In other words civil liberties are non existent. It is still an autocracy.
Well Obiang is sort of a puppet leader. He is in close cooperation with the U.S. who provide him with military equipment. In exchange, much of the oil fields in EG are developed by american Big Oil. Not much different to Nicaragua under Somoza and the United Fruit Company.
I'm not totally sure what u meant by "destroying my dreams", but I never took a strong stance on what was true or untrue about EG because I've never been there. Again, IF YOU READ MY COMMENTS the point I was trying to make was all about how the media can misrepresent certain African countries when the west has a political or economic interest in their natural resources. Since u say you've visited EG, I respect your assessment of it's conditions but I do not know u so I'll reserve judgement 4 now
Wow! This is so cool to see African people speaking Spanish. I didn't know people in Africa really spoke Spanish. I mean it is the offical language of Equatorial Guinea but I did not know that people actually speak it. I thought they would speak French, English, or an African langauge. Now I really want to visit. Lol!
if you have some one here fighting for Equatorial guinea in the comment section this is how you know they aren't doing anything constructive but pretending to live in this country just to start arguments. I've viewed a few of these silly arguments and seriously. EQ has a fuck load of problems as matter of fact Africa in all its richest has too many western (black westerner here) and other with there fucking hand out stealing just to give me freedom in this country it makes me real hot to see injustice
You misunderstood my point. The intent of my comment was to show how other countries will misrepresent African nations for political power or to exploit it's natural resources. And because of that we shouldn't take all the negative media and accusations as the absolute truth. I compared it to the Congo not because the two countries share the same politics, but because their leader was falsely represented in the west (just like Obiang) & now we know none of the accusations turned out to be true.

The reason people are surprised by these people speaking spanish is because they expect the countries to be colonized by Britain or France but nobody expects the Spanish inquisition.
Ec Guinea is a dictatorship, but it's not really poor, in fact its GDP per capita is better than the Spain's one. So, it's a lie that they are worse now than then, at least in terms of development and economy.
Te escribo en español porque he visto en tu perfil que eres chileno. ¿Cómo puedes decir eso? ¿De dónde sacas tus datos? Si consultas cualquier fuente, verás que los datos son los siguientes: España (est. 2011) PIB per capita: 33.298 $ IDH (Índice de Desarrollo Humano): 0,878 Guinea Ecuatorial (est. 2010) PIB per capita: 20.200 $ IDH: 0,538 ¿Has visto alguna vez los barrios pobres de Santa Isabel-Malabo? ¿Te has dado una vuelta por las comunidades campesinas de Río Muni?
The datum that Lynn and Vanhanen used for the lowest IQ estimate, Equatorial Guinea, was taken from a group of children in a home for the developmentally disabled in Spain en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Lynn
I agree, except I don't see why you put Israel in the list. Not saying there's nothing wrong there, but at my uni there's lots of palestinian students while I've yet to meet a North Korean there.
I was referring specifically to "weird". Fuentes simply stated he found it weird to see and hear an african person speak spanish. He's sharing his opinion, like everybody else here. Many countries that have been colonized have either more than one language, or heavy dialects. The country where i'm from had many colonies, and still have treaties with them. Guess what? i can't understand shit while they theoretically still speak the same language. So can it be weird? yes. Is it weird? not necessarily, it depends on about 37.8 billion different reasons.
Everyone who is thinks this comment is racist should clam the fuck down! It’s not. He is just saying that it’s strange for him to see African people speaking Spanish. That’s all.
Did you even read what I said? Go to google satellite maps and look at the mainland capital Bata. Are you telling me that it looks like "most cities" around the world? You are deluded. The 52 massive mansions plus the 800million conference center Obiang built for the AU conference was an extreme waste of money and didn't benefit the population at all. Tell me how Obiang is working on it.
your right about about somoza`s time , but as long as he`s spending money in EG it`s okay by me, some may call it waste some investing in the country , but when you are not taking that money to europe or the us , that`s when they make you look like the devil, he`s not saint but to my opinion is t,also there`s a saying
IQ measures you ability to be able to learn new things and how well you can comprehend new things. Which is what most people would probably consider intelligence.
the average person in EG speak atleast 3 languages, tradicional african language, spanish and english or french. the president of EG speaks 3 but he is not well educated. his son speaks 4. someone like me i speak 5 including chinese and portuguese and im only 23 years old. now tell me how can anyone with an IQ of 59 can manage to coordinate all those languages?. it doesn't make no sense. someone with that IQ can't even have an intelligent conversation with nobody. the truth about that controversial study is that, richard lynn only worked with some mentally disabled kids in spain, he never went to EG, but he found a way to assign that to a whole country. think about it. the whole country never been tested so that study is pure bullshit to me
El comentario de Adept Yogi cuya nacionalidad oculta es ridiculo. Que tal si nos dice de donde es para que podamos hablar de su pais? Con toda garantia vive en Europa, de barrendero o de conductor, o de Dios sabe que. Ha pensado alguna vez en regresar a su pais y aportar su granito de arena en lugar de ponerse a delirar? Que pena.
Bueno, el índice de desarrollo humano era más altos antes que ahora. Cierto es que, como en cualquier sociedad colonial, los colonos tenían más privilegios que los colonizados. Sin embargo, los españoles nunca superaron los 7.000 individuos, así que la ingente labor de construcción de infraestructuras ha quedado para los ecuatoguineanos. Y aunque suene racista, los negros no saben gobernarse solos. No hay más que ver Sudáfrica.
