Can you tell if a person can't speak a language even if you don't speak said language yourself?

Yes if I'm exposed enough to the language.

Guy in the wheelchair is Jewish
Guy in the middle is afto-Italian
Guy on the left is Canadian

None can speak Spanish

I could tell that the guy in the middle, Giancarlo Esposito, isn't a native speaker of Spanish

They all look hispanic to me. Never noticed that Hector and Gus were terrible at Spanish until I read some YouTube comments

Same. I thought that guy was afro-cuban or something like that

He's fluent in Italian THOUGH

Yes, also can hear the french accent when Nacho is speaking

do you have a video?

I can't hear a french accent when he speaks english.

I dunno, i picked up that gus's spanish was very "different" but i thought it was because he was chilean in the show

It’s called acting. Did you want them to hire Sinaloa cartel members.

No, it's not 'different' at all, he just can't speak the language and he's miming the words

Half Italian half american born in Denmark.
No wonder his spanish sucks

yeah more perceptible when speaking spanist

Could you tell the Canadian was a Canadian?
Aka Chilean accent

No, they could hire actors who speak Spanish or they could simply not write Spanish lines for them
If you're acting as a Chilean and you don't sound Chilean you're not a very good actor, are you?

No.

Mando is French-Canadian, but his father is Mexican I believe.

>if you didn't sound like a poor beaner for the 1% of your lines that are in mexican you're a bad actor

Well it depends on their audience and whether they can get away with it. Their audience isn’t primarily Spanish language linguists. Shakespeare got away with having random English people pretend to be Moors and Turks and Italians.

I recognised that Frances Eurovision entry wasn’t in French so I suppose I can to some level

The other Salamanca guy speaks good Spanish though.

leaf, nig, jew

Speaking like that would have been an improvement kek
You're right, I guess Americans can't tell but if you understand Spanish it's impossible to keep suspending your disbelief, specially with Gus
Lalo, Eladio and Bolsa are good
