There are more than three "types" of Spanish, although some classifications might suggest that the three primary linguistic groups may be Castilian, Galician and Catalán.

A fourth linguistic type would be Basque.

The Royal Spanish Academy (Real Academia Española, or REA) in Spain has been concerned with preserving and enriching the Spanish language since 1713.

The REA is constantly studying the Spanish language and updating its dictionary, which is considered to be authoritative. They classify the language into many subclasses, based on criteria such as medium (oral or written), chronology, geography and theme (i.e., books, press, fiction, non-fiction).

Therefore, the REA has made many classifications, but has been for some time engaged in the effort to standardize the language. Most educated Spanish-speaking people will likely adhere to REA recommendations.

Oddly enough, the recommended standards of pronunciation are derived from Spanish speakers from the mountainous regions of central Mexico.
