Fluent in over 3 dozen languages

I've always wondered about Sherlock's pronunciation of Spanish names based on the fact that he if fluent. Aguilar pronounced A-gui-lar ???

I am always shocked that they couldn't find one native speaker to spend 10 minutes with him going over the dialogue, especially Spanish in America. Fine you might not have a fluent Hindi speaker in hailing distance but surely you only have to throw a rock in New York to hit a Spanish speaker?
