It was the year 2016 when
Pablo Motos
got into another of the gardens where he usually gets into and from which it costs so much to get out.
The presenter of
El Hormiguero
was accused of "Andalusiaphobia" when in one of the programs he asked
Manuel Sarria
to speak "in perfect Spanish" so that the audience could understand him.
In that program,
Pablo Motos
laughs at the comedian's characteristic Andalusian accent and even tells him to "talk with all the S's".
At that time, the attitude of
Pablo Motos
with
Manuel Sarria
generated a great controversy, it seemed that he had forgotten, but last January the president of Adelante Andalucía,
Teresa Rodríguez
, shared that moment on Twitter and attacked Pablo Motos for his
"Andalusiaphobia"
, returning the controversy to the present.
"
Motos
, who asked
Roberto Leal
if he was going to leave his accent, asked Sarria to speak" perfect Spanish "and not breathe in the -s. Apparently Lorca, Zambrano or even García Márquez did not speak" perfect Spanish.
Put it in your head, Pablo, the Andalusian is perfect (....) It's called Andalusianphobia and it's the prejudice that attributes the Andalusian ignorance and impropriety.
It is a very specific type of classism and supremacism, "Rodríguez wrote in an extensive thread on Twitter.
Again,
Pablo Motos
at the center of the criticism.
Now, a month later when it seemed that the storm had passed again and with
Pablo Motos
off duty after catching the
coronavirus
, a school in the Cordovan town of Montoro, has responded to the ridicule and jokes of
Pablo Motos
with a video published in the YouTube channel of
Colegio San Francisco Solano de Montoro
, Radio School Solano TV.
In the video featuring two children, the
Orthographic Police Brigade
, Adrián and Sofía, respond to the presenter by assuring that "there is no rule in Spanish" that says that "the one spoken in Castilla -laísmos, leísmos and loísmos, apart- is better than the one spoken in
Andalusia
, the Canary Islands, throughout South America or anywhere else in Spain ".
"Fortunately, Andalusians do not have that type of prejudice and, luckily, we understand all the ways of speaking, without trying to change them, whether it is spoken by a Galician, a Canary, an Argentine or a Venezuelan. We are proud to speak Andalusian", Adrián intervenes, both dressed in
Trancas and Barrancas
costumes
.
In addition, they have pointed out that "the most advanced languages are those that economize on language and, more than Andalusian, no one economizes".
Next, which is what The Orthographic Police Brigade is for, they show a series of tweets from the
El Hormiguero
account
in which spelling mistakes are made, which the children correct and point out with, "You have been making mistakes for a long time" .
Adrián and Sofía not only defend the Andalusian accent, but also defend
Roberto Leal
, with whom he also got into a puddle on one of his visits, when asking him if his Andalusian accent would be a problem to present
Pasapalabra
and read the Rosco.
At that time, Roberto Leal's response was more than enough to dismantle
Pablo Motos's
inopportune question
, "the accent has nothing to do with pronunciation or diction."
However, the Cordovan school has not wanted to miss the opportunity to remember that moment to defend the Andalusian accent.
The video ends with one of the most mythical phrases of
El Hormiguero
that Adrián pronounces:
"Do you know what I want?"
.
And Sofía does not hesitate to answer: "Well, that he improves his autography and grammar and that he does not make a mistake with the Andalusians in El Hormiguero!".
