      I don´t know if this helps.
      Basically, what I mean is that the "a" in "make", "take", "day" etc instead of sounding like spanish "ei" it sounds like spanish "ai"

      Of course it is my imagination or ofcouse they pronounce it different from Americans?

        You are aware of the concept of accents, yes?

            Yes, the british do not pronounce a long A in the same manner as the Americans (or the Canadians).

                The "a" sounds the same to reasonable people.

                              I know they (as in most of the world) say "I" and "E" differently than I say them. More the "I".
                              I'm from here and have had my daughter, brother, mother and this Mexican at work translate what I was saying. At least them.
