Paraguayan Spanish is heavily influenced by Guaraní, the country’s co-official language. It consistently uses “vos” for informal address. The dialect is known for its distinctive intonation and the frequent use of Guaraní words in everyday speech. Unique features include the expression “luego” used as an emphasizer and “jaha” (let’s go) borrowed from Guaraní.
