Voseo


 

Voseo is the use of the second person singular pronoun vos in several dialects of Spanish, instead of tú, which is often considered the standard. Vos is used extensively as the primary spoken form of the second-person singular in various countries around Latin America, including Argentina, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Paraguay and Uruguay, but only in Argentina, Uruguay, and increasingly in Paraguay, is it also the standard written form. In the dialect of Argentina and Uruguay (known as Rioplatense Spanish) vos is also the standard form for use in television media. Vos may also be present in other countries as a limited regionalism (For instance The "Maracucho" spanish used in Maracaibo,Venezuela).
