Is it always easy to spot a spanish-speaking person?
If you have a very good knowledge of Spanish phonetics and syntax, then yes, if that person's Spanish is much better than their English. Otherwise, not really. There are other languages that also result in a similar accent when a person is speaking English (Arabic, for example, can on a superficial level produce an accent that sounds similar to Spanish). It also depends on what other languages the Spanish-speaking person speaks, as those will also influence their English. It's a case-by-case thing, really.

What is Claude monets accent?
he has a European accent. *the person means a french accent* He spoke French - is that an accent? He spoke French and had a french accent. Yes, french is an accent as well as a language. Example: If I say I have a french jacket, I mean that I have a jacket that is from France. When I mentioned that Monet had a french accent, I meant that he spoke french with the accent of someone who is from France, versus, let's say a French-Canadian, Haitian, Belgian accent, etc... An "European accent" doesn't really mean much because there is no such a thing as an European Language. Many languages are spoken in Europe, as well as multiple countries that speak french (France and Belgium) and the language that Monet spoke was French, with a french accent. Hope that sounds more clear now.

How did the American accent evolve?
The "American Accent" is more properly the "American Dialect". An accent is the intonation given by foreign speakers of a language. A French accent refers to English spoken by a native French speaker. An American accent would be the pronunciation of another language spoken by an American person (An example in French: bone- joor rather thanbɔ̃.ʒuʁ).A dialect is the internal difference of a language spoken by users of the language which exhibit local or regional changes (e.g. A Cockney dialect rather than a Cockney accent). Any dialect evolves through generations of people living together and not mingling much with people from other regions.There is no national American "accent" or "dialect". The distinctiveness of the southern drawl, Texan, midwestern or Boston manner of speaking are all regional dialects. Interestingly some American dialects have evolved from old forms of English such as the Elizabethan pronunciations and vocabulary still used in the English spoken in the Ozarks.
