Regional variations are considerable from country to country. All of the regional dialects are derived from Castilian. There are enormous variations for the different target audiences in Spain, Mexico, and South and Central American countries. For translations there is a neutral Spanish that has regional vocabulary and syntax minimized.
Although there are differences between Castilian Spanish and Latin American Spanish – particularly relating to pronunciation – they do not prevent mutual intelligibility.
Latin American regional dialects are derived from Castilian but differ from it in phonology.
