===Language=== [[File:Sede del diario El Comercio, Lima, Perú, 2015-07-28, DD 99.JPG|thumb|Headquarters of the newspaper, [[El Comercio (Peru)|El Comercio]]]] Known as [[Peruvian Coast Spanish]], Lima's Spanish is characterized by the lack of strong intonations as found in many other Spanish-speaking regions. It is heavily influenced by [[Castile (historical region)|Castilian]] Spanish. Throughout the Viceroyalty era, most of the Spanish nobility based in Lima were originally from Castile.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://historicaltextarchive.com/sections.php?op=viewarticle&artid=113 |title=Articles: Colonial Lima according to Jorge Juan and Antonio de Ulloa |publisher=Historical Text Archive |access-date=8 July 2009}}</ref> Limean Castillian is also characterized by the lack of ''[[voseo]]'', unlike many other [[Spanish language in the Americas|Hispanic American]] countries. This is because ''voseo'' was primarily used by Spain's lower socioeconomic classes, a social group that did not begin to appear in Lima until the late colonial era.{{citation needed|date=November 2010}} Limean Spanish is distinguished by its clarity in comparison to other Latin American accents and has been influenced by immigrant groups including Italians, [[Andalusian people|Andalusians]], West Africans, Chinese and Japanese. It also has been influenced by [[anglicism]]s as a result of [[globalization]], as well as by Andean Spanish and [[Quechuan languages|Quechua]], due to migration from the Andean highlands.<ref>{{Cite book |url={{google books |plainurl=y |id=jayN0hV5DDkC |page=124}}|title=The Colonial Divide in Peruvian Narrative|via=Google Books|isbn=978-1-84519-184-9|author1=Kokotovic, Misha|year=2007|publisher=Sussex Academic Press }}</ref> [[El Comercio (Peru)|El Comercio]] is the largest and oldest newspaper outlet of Peru, headquartered in Lima. It was founded in 1839, by José Manuel Amunátegui y Muñoz and Alejandro Villota
