Map of Yeísmo in the Spanish speaking world. Blue areas have the same sound for y and ll [IPA:/ʝ/; ENG:"y"], areas in pink maintain a distinction between the two sounds [IPA:/ʝ/+/ʎ/; ENG:"y"+"ly"] (i.ibb.co)

If Bogota is a mixed area, surely that’s because of people from its northern regions like Cundinamarca and Boyacá coming into the city, because being there you don’t hear distinction very often at all.

Is that Mendoza in the Andes between Argentina and Chile? Super interesting how they’re a small pocket of distinction just there.
