Map of Argentina showing regional accents depicted in different colors (source http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acento_cordobés), based on descriptions from Vidal de Battini (1964). Before brain damage every patient had regional accent of the cities indicated with numbers in the map, (1) Córdoba, (2) Corrientes, and (3) Buenos Aires. The regional accent used in Córdoba is designated as Cordobés or central; the regional accent used in Corrientes is generically termed “Guarínitico” (due to the strong influence of Guaraní, one of the two languages spoken in the neighbor country Paraguay) or northeast; and the regional accent characteristic of Buenos Aires which is known as Rioplatense – bonaerense. Rioplatense makes reference to the Río de la Plata (Silver River) and Bonaerense to the city of Buenos Aires.
