It is not always appropriate to distinguish between Peninsular Spanish and Latin American Spanish; however, some differences can be found.

"Tentativeness" can be a tricky way to describe language. What do you think it means that Uruguayan Spanish tends to be more tentative than Peninsular Spanish?
