How different would a Mexican dialect vs a Spanish dialect be in the late 1800s/early 1900s?
I apologize if this is a silly question, but I’m working on writing a story which involved a Mexican and a Spaniard, ca. 1900. I wanted to kind of play into the differences between the two dialects/accents, but I wanted to understand more about it. Would the dialects/accents be more similar to each other or further apart than right now?
