I’m not a Spanish speaker but I think it’s cool that many people speak Spanish in Miami and other cities. Just like the French in Canada
skandan govindan no
skandan govindan you say it because you don’t leave there...
@@dithperlay3292 I think it's cool that French is spoken in parts of Canada, it gets a different feeling.
@@ericktwelve11 I would kill to see the day Canada speaks all French and America speaks all Spanish lol
@@Steve-zc9ht imagine that, that would be funny hahaha.
El idioma español fue el primer idioma europeo que se habló en la Florida y en todos los Estados Unidos...los españoles llegaron a Florida en el año 1513...y en el año 1565 fundaron San Agustín, la ciudad más antugua de los Estados Unidos.
Si pero después que Usa ganara la guerra muy poca gente hablaba español el español se habla en muami es por los cubanos venezolanos puertoriqueños y colombianos que viven en miami y sus descendientes xD
Pero eso no tiene nada que ver que estén hablando el español 🤦🏻♀️
@@cclmpr Tiene que ver en que le da validez histórica a la legitimidad de la presencia del idioma español en el actual EUA ciento y pico de años antes que el inglés.
I can totally imagine Jon finishing his meal, paying the check and saying: "Gracias, chao pescao" xD
Francisco Venegas López jaja oh trust me, I’ve done that before! Haha
@@JonGrossGringo no way hahaha
Bye bye fish hahaha
Because these people are Spanish not Americans
@@JonGrossGringo go to Texas to California New York those they speak Spanish too
Even the car speaks Spanish
hahha
Lol
jajaja
El primer turista que llegó a Miami fue un tal Ponce de León en 1512. Saludos
Spanish the second most popular language in the US, and that's a fact Jack, 40 million native Spanish speakers.
Spanish should be official language of Florida and Miamai
@@Drannn54 yeah but English is the official language in Florida
More like 55 million speakers, but who is counting. Virtually every Hispanic speaks Spanish, and that is their native language.
@@SuperRip7 not true there’s a lot of Hispanics who don’t speak Spanish
@@DivinesLegacy
Really ? I am over 30 years old living in Southern California all my life. I never met one before my eyes.
Jon tu hablas chileno no hablas español... lol 🤣😂
ajajajajajaja I'm not even spanish-speaking and I know that!
Victor Melo jajaja! Así es! No se la diferencia entre español y chileno después de 4 años viviendo en Chile! 😂
@@JonGrossGringo Esta es la diferencia:
Español: "Hola Jon, ¿cómo estás?, espero que bien, sólo quería decirte que me gustó mucho el último video que subiste, lo encontré muy divertido e informativo. Espero tener noticias tuyas pronto, que te vaya excelente amigo mío. Adiós"
Chileno: "¡Hola poh Jon, tanto tiempo! ¿cómo anda la cosa?, ojalá que la raja, oye, bacán el último video que subiste!, la cagó como es la weá, ah? No te perdai poh loco, que te vaya a todo cachete compadre, chabela.
Christian Martínez !!!!.... lo que pasa que eres flaite!!!... por eso hablas así!!!... yo viajó a diferentes lugares y por ej . Si voy a Colombia voy a hablar español sin tanto modismo chileno!!!... es obvio o si no no te entienden!!!... uno se ubica cuando viaja!!!... Te falta mucho
@@robertogoldman4544 No soy flaite, sólo estaba poniendo un ejemplo de la diferencia entre el castellano normal y lo que en Chile se considera el "idioma chileno", lástima que no te dé la cabeza para haberte dado cuenta, haz dejado en evidencia que tu inteligencia es escasa y que no te ha servido de nada viajar "a diferentes lugares". Una pena por tí.
Miami does have Denny's and all of that.If you go to Latin American restaurants you will hear more Spanish ,cause the cooks, waiters and patrons most likely are all Hispanic .
Excelente video como siempre, y nos demuestra que es totalmente cierto que en Miami el lenguaje mas común es el español, estando en Estados Unidos, wow!!
Daniela Salazar Vega gracias!
Miami fue colonia española parte del imperio español
@@elchicotony7637 mejor dicho, el estado actual de la Florida era español, Miami se fundó después de la administración española
Florida y parte de Carolina era territorio español ,antes de que Napoleón decidió venderlos a los ingléses
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Miami es cosmopolita, también hablan inglés. Ahí vive Mandy Rose, Dana Brooke, Nikki Cross, Hulk Hogan, Anita Dark, Sylvester Stallone entre otros. Tu crees que en Miami hay puros cubanos ? Nah eso es un mito.
It is interesting to go to Miami and hear mostly Spanish. But then here in California, I go to SoCal where there are way more Hispanics than in South Florida and you can get by with English just as easy as if you were in New England. Heck, right on the border in San Ysidro and in Tijuana I hear just as much English as Spanish among Hispanics....and many speak English better than most non-Hispanics. "Hispanic" is definitely a generic term that means little when comparing those in California and Texas (mostly Mexican and northern Central American) to those in Florida.
In chicago you can get by with both you won't here Spanish on a regular because English is a super dominant language in chicago and the USA as a whole but you could get by with Spanish in chicago for sure
Your right. English doesn't have much value in South Florida. So, those are the results.
In New York, if you go to Washington heights and Jackson heights, you’ll almost only hear Spanish. Jackson heights is mostly Mexicans, colombians and Ecuadorians and then Washington heights is mostly Dominicans and puertoricans
The Hispanic population in south Florida is totally different to the Hispanic population in Texas, New Mexico and California and even New York. South Florida Hispanics are mainly Cubans, Nicaraguans, Venezuelans… the community is huge and prospering. Spanish is dominant and we are unmistakable politically and socially CONSERVATIVE. Even though spanish is the main language, the Hispanics down here are very pro American values. Anti communist, anti socialist, pro free market economy. That’s the reason why during the 2020 riots, antifa and BLM didn’t get any traction in south Florida as they thought they would And they had to leave somewhere else totally disappointed that the huge Hispanic population of south Florida didn’t supported them, instead, figthed them off. The community is also very politically active towards conservatism. Down here is Trump country, Marco Rubio country, Desantis country, Jimenez country , Salazar country and any and all conservative figure out there…… the Spanish is dominant yes, but the American values are a priority to this community. West coast and new York Hispanics are wayyyyy different than south Florida Hispanics…... is like if we were talking about two complete different ethnic groups. …… in fact, the two groups don’t mix very well…. Lol.
@@StrivingMen the issue is that anyone speaking a foreign language in my country is offensive and I find it offensive and don’t like it. Like go home if you don’t want to speak American English in America. There are so so so many latinx countries for them to go to but they have to swarm here and ruin mine? Then they don’t assimilate and don’t pay taxes and ruin the schools (look at great schools breakdowns by race and you’ll see how poorly many Hispanic kids do) and then now I’m having to learn another language in MY COUNTRY. Literally people speak foreign in Metro Atlanta (not a boarder town) in my 100k a year average suburban county. This is a WEALTHY COUNTY I shouldn’t hear foreign languages !!! It offends my sensibilities when people come here, don’t join our culture and bring crime and lower the school ratings
If you ever go to Hialeah you'll get an even bigger shock. Almost everyone there only speaks Spanish.
Nah, they speak primarily Cuban. Even I, a Spanish speaker, struggle to understand them lol.
@@jsphat81Eso es falso. Cualquier hispanohablante de cualesquiera de sus regiones entiende a la perfección, a la primera, cualquier otro acento/regionalismo, incluso si es la primera vez que lo escucha.
A lo muchos puede decirle al otro que le explique o le diga la manera en general de alguna palabra, y ni siempre, porque el mismo contexto puede decirle cuál palabra es.
Si no lo entiendes entonces tienes algún retraso mental@@Amado1919
Hopefully in the future, the US will improve its language education and teach kids Spanish at a much earlier age such as in kindergarten. So many benefits of learning a second language.
There is already some schools in new york california and texas
@@elchicotony7637 Yup. Now we need more of them across the country.
This is just bending backwards.
How about teach native language too like Cherokee. I think it's important too
The school system is too poor for that. Totally wishful thinking.
I am Swedish and I love the fact that I in the USA could speak both English and Spanish. In New York, Miami and in California.
We went to California to visit a relative, and we were my Spanish speaking spouse, a daughter and a foster child.
Our foster child liked to speak Spanish with us, and when we was in some restaurants the staff and the guests heard us speaking in Swedish, English and Spanish.
A waitress asked me how many languages we speak and I told her: Swedish, Spanish, English, German and French.
The guests applauded us.
Knowing other languages opens doors.
Cool. I’m just curious though, do you speak Swedish back to non-natives trying to learn?
@@benjackson7872
Yes, I do.
Me encanta el español, era mi tercera lengua después francés e inglés... Lo perfeccioné cuando vivía en Orlando, FL y eso, gracias a mis amigos puertorriqueños.
We speak English Spanish and Spanish just depends on what part of Miami you are in but Spanish would probably be the dominant but you'll mostly hear a mix of English and Spanish together
It doesn't matter if you're bilingual. In Miami, it's Spanish and that is it.
Yes spanish in Miami!!!! When I visited miami I didn’t really speak to anyone because I was too shy....oh how things change. Really loved this video and it’s so interesting to see how in a country you can find so many cultures!
yeah, you're an actor, now!!!
World Wide Wong anton!!! Yeees haha how are you?
I've been in Miami in 2016, and I've never needed to talk in english, even in the super market were full of spanish talking people. It was very funny to find argentinian, peruvian and also chilean people that immediatily recognize you as a south american.
PS: I highly recommend to go to the malls in there, it's super cheap to buy clothes and other things.
enoughtodie yes! Isn’t that crazy! I’ve had the same experience here which I do enjoy! Hopefully will head to a mall before I go! Have a great Monday!
@@JonGrossGringo Have a great day too Jon! 🙌
All those people need to learn English.
I think Miami is too different for white and black Americans to live. They know quickly that Spanish is the language of success (pretty much). I know children have to learn English. Nonetheless, English, like cardio workouts, is only practiced in their youth. The only people who are proficient in two languages are public servants. English is greatly struggling in Miami Dade.
@@JonGrossGringo My only issue is when people expect you to speak Spanish. I lived in Croatia for several years and speak the language fluently. I never expected people to speak to me in English.
Hahaha is so nice to hear you saying "I'm from Chile" at the end of the video 😍 I think your Spanish is great! And it's getting better every day... I would like to go visit Miami some day. Hugs!
That is completely normal, listen I am from Spain and I don't know if you know it but in Spain 4 languages are spoken (Spanish, Catalan, Basque and Galician) there is bilingualism in many cities and regions, 40% of Spanish are bilingual Spanish + the other languages of Spain, and there is no problem, children study in the 2 languages since they are small children and they change without realizing it, in America, speaking more languages than English is bad for you, many people see it as an attack .
don’t forget valencian
@@kingdrake5054 valencian Is a dialect of catalán
@@kingdrake5054 At that rate, both Mallorquín, Menorquín, and Ibiçenco count as their very own languages, at least according to the Balearic Academy of Catalan Language. And Basque can be splitted into the different main dialects, there's no "majority" dialect. And let's not forget Caló Gypsy and it's variants. Plus that mix of Spanish and Portuguese they speak in Olivares, in Extramadura. Plus Asturian. Plus Aragonese.
Jon pasalo bien con tu familia....Felicidades, y recuerda siempre lo mas importante aunque no hables un idioma es una sonrisa ...
As far as I know it really depends on the zone .
Go to Doral or Hialeah and you do need Spanish to get by but go to Coral Gables or Brickell and it’s way easier to conduct everything in English .
I don't think the American people are moving to Miami. The language barrier will be an issue English in Miami is still not that viable there is dramatic reform. We are talking about living here and not vacationing here.
Smartest comment
That's why MIAMI se está convirtiendo en la mejor ciudad de USA para vivir. Everybody loves the weather, people are funny and happy. And is a growing city day by day
lol Miami is full of 3rd world assholes
Hey man, I used to watch you a bit when I was living in Santiago in 2017. Cool to see your still plugging away and making educational and entertaining content! Good for you man and best of luck for the future!
Jordan ,gosh...! You are still alive...Ha..ha...I still remember those days when in Chile you devoted your time to break young girls' hearts....! (Frannie and the plump old lady who sold empanadas just around the corner were the apples of your eyes...) Don't tell me that Kate will have the same fate....Ha ,ha..latino girls really fill your taste...a bit more and you smooch 100 chicks a year...I heard you were in Niederland and Deutschland ,ha..ha... how many times have you said "Ich liebe dich..." with seductive eyes to some locals....Ha..ha...the Academy should award you with an special Oscar... " Best lover of all movie complexes"....
Dear Jon, no es tan raro. Florida fue descubierta precisamente en Pascua Florida, y poblada por españoles. They found the first US city: San Agustin and belong to Spain for more than 300 years. De hecho los US compraron el estado, pero nunca lo pagaron. Legally It still belongs to Spain.
Biden paganos lo que nos debes xD
it is a cool thing that Spanish is spoken in some cities in USA, it is a part of the American culture, the same is French in Canada.
within Miami there are neighborhoods that are more Spanish speaking such as Little Havana area and Hialeah
I'm an anglophone, from the United States, live in Miami, and honestly, Miami is more a Spanish speaking city than an English speaking city. Most people assume you speak spanish when they start talking to you, and many don't speak english at all. Part of the culture and allure.
You can make the same question in Texas
Yeah, in Sheldon Cooper's house, ha ha ha.
texas is racist when u speak spanish
@@Pedrodjdaddy I'm in Houston, and i didn't see people having problems with Hispanics. Actually there are places where you can only work with Spanish speakers, it's cool.
@@Pedrodjdaddy TEXAS WAS A STATE OF MEXICO THEY HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE SPANISH
If Montreal in Canada speaks only French because Miami cannot speak only Spanish? There is no problem after all, the Spanish arrived before the British to America and also created the first town in Florida centuries ago so we are in all our right 😉🇪🇦
That has nothing to do with it 🤦🏻♀️Canada is other country you not going to compare to other country
I don't understand your point.
Your videos are super fun! have u ever thought about making a video speaking only Spanish? Btw your Spanish sounds pretty good, very clean, congrats.
Alfredo Hasenberg yeah I’ve done some videos in only Spanish but with my accent I get embarrassed speaking to native Spanish speakers however forgiving they all are :)
@@JonGrossGringo u don't say! People would love to hear ur Spanish. It's highly possible that you speak much better than a lot of native Spanish speakers lol.
@@JonGrossGringo don't get embarrassed. I feel the same way too. I want to learn French, but I'm embarrassed I'll have an accent.
To be honest I don't know why is today this a surprise. Having so easy access to the knowledge and history how we have....
Man... You in the sunlight...

Excellent video Jon!, It amazes me how many people speak spanish in Miami, I always tought LA would be the city with more spanish speakers. You should do a little prank and say people you are from Chile and this is your first time in USA, ha ha ha, they would be like "naaaaah, really?" ha ha ha. Enjoy your visit to your home country and have a wonderful trip.
@@LindseyDara English is a moribund language in Miami.
@@SuperRip7 in Los Angeles too in New York too
I hear San Jose is like that, too! (due to it being a border city)
Just like how you can get away knowing only Chinese in Richmond, BC, Canada
World Wide Wong you can get away with Chinese in Canada?! That I didn’t know! Craaazyyy! Have a great Monday, Anton!
Jon Gross only in BC
@@JonGrossGringo billionaire chinese took over Vancouver
Jon Gross you can get away with only Portuguese in Luxembourg
Very good the topic of the video, I have a dilemma with that, even when I am Hispanic, I think that all people should speak the native language of the country, English in all states, but it also feels good and it is comfortable to be able to understand and speak Spanish in another country.
Roberto Salvatti i totally get that! I feel the same in Chile in that it’s nice to speak my native language sometimes with people. It’s weird coming back to the states though because now i just want to speak Spanish and miss it!
Well, technically speaking, USA as a whole doesn't have a "native language", nor an "official" one, it may surprise you but english is not the official language of the United States or England or Australia, strange? yes, but also, true.
Being from the U.S. I actually think it's cool that there is a city in the U S. where you can practice your Spanish and never need to use English. The U S. is made up of people from all over the world.
@@christianmartinez1921 actually there are native language from USA like Cherokee or Apache but not English of course. English is language that brings by British colonist and land stealers.
Well English or Spanish is not a native language of the americas

Hialeah, una población vecina a Miami, es la ciudad más hispana y en la que más español se habla en todo Estados Unidos, de acuerdo con un estudio realizado por WalletHub, una compañía de medios de pago electrónicos. Para este estudio sobre la diversidad cultural de Estados Unidos se tuvieron en cuenta 501 ciudades de diverso tamaño y se usaron tres indicadores claves para determinar si son diversas o no: origen étnico y racial de sus habitantes, idioma y lugar de nacimiento.
Hialeah, que, según proyecciones del censo, tenía más de 239.673 habitantes en 2017, predominantemente de origen cubano, hasta el punto de que la suelen calificar como la “segunda ciudad más poblada” de Cuba, está en el puesto 498 de la lista en cuanto a diversidad cultural.
Solo otras tres ciudades son menos diversas, pero Hialeah, enclavada en el condado de Miami-Dade, es la número uno en todo el país en porcentaje de habitantes hispanos (95,64 %).
También es donde un mayor porcentaje de vecinos habla español (92,25 %), lo que la hace una de las menos diversas de EE.UU. desde el punto de vista lingüístico.
Saludos Jon y muchas bendiciones.. un besito para el bebé más hermoso del mundo Moisés 😍 y por supuesto a Elise.
Chaoo pescaooo!
No, solamente en Miami en todos las ciudades de Estados Unidos hablan español en Los Angeles California, en Texas , en Nueva York
I mean, there's people in Glendale, California that speak only Armenian, so yes, you can live in parts of The U.S, without ever speaking English
Yes in chicago China Town they only speak Chinese so yeah Americans don't just speak English we speak all different types of languages
The Armenian language does not hold up well here in the States.
What about New York! Haha now I’m here and I have listened more Spanish than English 😂 (I don’t like it so much because I want to practice my English... but people notice that I am latina soy they talk to me in Spanish...
DanielaUrbina i believe it! I’ve been to New York but only for a quick visit, good call!
The same thing happens here in Chile, when we find a gringo (or any person that looks like a gringo) we automatically try to speak english to them, I know they hate it because they want to learn spanish but we just do it to make things easier for them.
@@christianmartinez1921 What does a gringo look like?
It depends where in NYC you are. If you are in Washington Heights, Inwood and parts of The Bronx you will hear more Spanish than English but if you are in Midtown Manhattan and many neighborhoods of Brooklyn and Staten Island for example most people don’t speak Spanish.
Ppl talk to me in spanish to 😂
I'm from Miami, born here, and I likewise don't speak a lick of English. Great video btw!!
So going to Miami is great if you want speak Spanish with people? Thanks for the tip 😁
Ik where I'm moving now lol
Yep.
El primer idioma europeo que se habló en EEUU, concretamente en Florida, fue el castellano. Así que a nadie debe extrañar que este idioma se recupere con fuerza. Dicen que en el año 2.050 uno de cada tres estadounidense será hispanounidense. Dado que estos no se reparten geográficamente por igual, será perfectamente posible, mucho antes de esa fecha, ver Estados enteros donde el castellano volverá a ser el primer idioma. Eso sucederá sobretodo en el sur y el oeste pero también en muchos núcleos urbanos del norte y el este. Saludos desde Castilla (España).
Haha dumbest comment ever
I've visited Miami twice and both times it was a surprise to me ,save at the Airport or next to Miami Beach Area, to converse with people who in spite of being in the States for yonks own a sort of limited English ,perhaps just as Jon indirectly indicates in this video the amount of latino immigrants is the reason of such linguistic phenomenon which does not happen in other Florida areas .In Fort Lauderdale , Pensacola or Orlando where many attractions are just around the corner ,there are ten of thousands of latinos as well ,but they do their best to get familiar with the English language....Perhaps if they don't learn it ,it 'd be hard for them to invite their children to Epcot Center ,The Magic Kingdom ,etc...as there ,they have to communicate in the original language of Uncle Scrooge to avoid being lost in a world where the instructions are scarcely delivered in Spanish....
So what's your point.
Tu hablas español muy bien Jon .con acento pero muy bien .😄😄😄
Rusma Gonzalez jaja! Siempre con acento lamentablemente pero siempre intentaré:)
Jon, I love your videos, i am from santiago and i highly reccomend you to travel around the south of Chile, there are so many beautiful places that i'm sure you will love 💕
Olympus thank you so so much!!!!!! I know! There are so many more places to see and I can’t wait to see them all!
@@JonGrossGringo Have you been in Valdivia?
I am Cuban American, and I grew up in Miami until I was 22 years old and I came to live to texas, the ironic thing about texas is that almost all of them are Mexicans or chicanos and they don't speak Spanish, i mean they know spanish but they think they are very American and when you speak Spanish they look at you badly they are very racist in texas, that's why i love miami that never happened to me in miami
huh
This is a long one so pay attention.
Miami is a great place if you just want to party. If you want to live in Miami then you need to think twice. Don't get the idea that just because English is taught at school that it becomes a bulwark against Latin American culture and Spanish. The people who become proficient in English and Spanish will become the city's civil service and elected office. The majority of English being spoken by Hispanics is at the school, and that is it. Other than that, you only hear Spanish in public; not just immigrants but also extending to the grandchildren of them living with American-born parents. Part of the reason why is that schools do not openly encourage to speak English all the time. So, if you ask do Hispanics speak English well. The answer is sometimes they are proficient sometimes less than that-let's put it that way. The reason- the culture of Miami frowns upon anything that is Anglo American. For those that do, they will most likely join the civil service like police and fire department. In these places you must speak English and Spanish, otherwise they are not letting you in. However, for the 850-pound gorilla in the room known as the private sector to which most Miamians work. Almost everything is done in Spanish -whether it is Spanish-speaking colleague or Spanish-speaking co-employees. There is no point in English when you are in adult in the private sector workplace. As for the rest of the non-Spanish speaking neighborhoods, there is not one of them that is prosperous. They are all destitute and filled with rejected people because they do not speak Spanish. Be it Liberty City, Overtown, you name it. Be a wise person and don't let the word "bilingual city" fool you. These are deceivers who don't have the guts to tell you Spanish is a prerequisite to prosper in Miami. They don't tell you that ESL has no bearing in determining that English is a preferred language; which it not.
So, tell what you think. I will be obliged to answer.
The everyday language of Miami is Spanish
plus if the ordinary american think its dominated by mexicans they are wrong. most of the latin population in miami is cuban. so yah florida is where all the cubans, puerto ricans etc are. mexican are the smallest minority in florida.
Estas en miami ahora? Yo vivo en Miami desde hace 19 años.... Soy chileno también
I never have to speak English in Miami.
Everyone speaks to me in Spanish all the time. English is definitely a distant second language there. Even the tour guides speak only Spanish while giving a boat tour of the city. New York in comparison feels like Oregon compared to Miami.
In chicago everyone's English accent is there Spanish dialect ppl speak to me in spanish in chicago all the time that I actually learned alot of Spanish it's such a beautiful language
Yes, that is why it is important to speak Spanish. Because what good can happen when you speak only English? Nothing, because the city does not serve to English speakers.
@@SuperRip7 I'm not in Miami, but I dropped Japanese and moved towards Spanish instead. Even if I don't travel, there's millions of people I can talk with here in the US.
@@millabasset1710 So what are you saying?
@@SuperRip7 Just learning a language I can use in America, just agreeing with you.
I live there and yes you can survive with just speaking Spanish. Miami-Dade and Broward are mostly hispanics and island people. Lol
Melinda Rex haha exactly, um in certain areas, but when it comes to getting jobs, the minimum requirement is to be Bilingual in Miami area. So it’s challenging to really get ahead in Miami only speaking English.
I agree that knowing Spanish and English is better regardless of whether you speak of the two
Spanish is an international language, and a very powerful one.
I agree with you it'll be cooler if Americans speak Spanish and English at the same time with music.
English still is the lingua franca of the world by far however. Business, science, technology, medicine, and diplomacy.
@Buenas Intenciones Yes. Tons of racism from them.
@Buenas Intenciones oh yea well guess what? we are dominating this country. get used to it
@Buenas Intenciones well then call them out.
Nice B-roll impressive! I will check out your channel, quality content!!
Lindsey LaVida thanks!
Yes! You are from Chile!
Yay!
Cool I'm from Miami but live in Atlanta now. They just don't speak Spanish in Miami they also speak the language of Latin American Politics. Corruption is rampant. Great Vlog keep it up😀 Would love to visit Santiago one day!
SOUNDS LIKE WASHINGTON D.C. THE CRADLE OF FILTH AND CORRUPTION!!!
Fun facts: in 1910 50% of NYC was Italian. In Brooklyn you needed to speak Italian to get by.
New flash to all the language imperialist; Hispanic born in Miami prefer English sorry.
Your analogy is wrong.
It's hard to get around in Miami if you don't speak Spanish. I even experienced people shaking their heads or rolling their eyes when they asked me if I spoke Spanish and I said "no". Very ignorant and disrespectful.
Not really. I mean, yes there are people who speak only English and other languages but they are destitute and have no opportunity in Miami. Despite being billed as a "bilingual" city, the Hispanic people knows it's a total crock. Nothing gets done in Miami until that person speaks Spanish. English and Haitian Creole will not suffice. It is called the "capital of Latin America" for a reason because Spanish is the dominant and prestige language in the city. Children may learn English in school, but when they finally grow up it is Spanish that provides all the means to prosper in Miami Dade. Anyone who lives there will say Spanish is the de facto language of business from small mom and pop shops to the office building known as City National Bank of Florida. When it comes to culture Calle Ocho does not need an introduction. So, you see people, you don’t really need English in Florida. It makes sense if anyone wants to be relevant here in the city. So, long story short, Spanish is the answer
I'm learning Spanish love the language
statistically 75% of the Miami metro area speak mostly or only Spanish at home and roughly 45% of all residents could speak both languages fluently
I doubt that.
@@SuperRip7 it's true
@@Steve-zc9ht
It should have been 75 and 25 but it is not.
Not just in Miami others city’s from United States speak Spanish
Immigrants make up large part of those population
Just one quick question. Is there any official language in the states? Here in Europe it is said that you don't have any mandatory language by law as we have in other countries (as in Spain that is mandatory to know and use spanish/castillian)
Not federally. Many states have English as the official language. In California you can vote in any major language afaik
@@darthdj31 yeah in 31 states English is a official language on a state wide level but not a federal level like my sate illinois Ts construction says the official language of the state of Illinois is English but states like Tennessee Missouri Alabama and etc they go super far right with strick rules on only speaking English
Actually United States 🇺🇸 they don’t have official language
Well, thankfully I am moving to miami brickell.
Its rich, low crime, and thriving.
No creas que porque personas que hablan español viven en miami hay muchas personas que viajan a acá a Estados Unidos 🇺🇸 para trabajar y ganar dinero para cuando regresan a su país le den el dinero a su familia no se quedan a vivir acá para siempre por la visa que tienen para quedarse como 6 meses acá en en Estados Unidos 🇺🇸 y esas personas que hablan español pueden ser gente turistas que son inmigrantes que visitan el país Estados Unidos 🇺🇸 así como Miami también hay otras ciudades de Estados Unidos que hablan el Español como El Paso Texas , Los Angeles California, en New York también hay muchas gente que hablan español si visitas a estos estados o ciudades vas a ver que hablan español y mas que en Miami
Parece Cataluña, el idioma mayoritario es el español, pero TODOS los carteles están escritos en otro idioma.
Most in Miami speak Spanish ,but will speak English to an American. Most. In a few places maybe deep in Hialeah ,people will only speak Spanish,but if they talk to a monolingual English speaking American ,they will try their best to communicate in English,aunque sea Ingles machacado .
Cuando yo fui a Miami todos hablaban inglés jaja que triste anduve por los lugares equivocados me quede en un hotel en Miami beach

i live in metro Miami, you don't need to speak any English. I have B2B sales teams all over the state. My sales teams in Miami Dade do not speak a lot of English while they are working. Most customers speak English, but there is a comfort in speaking Spanish when conducting business. I am very hesitant to hire anyone that is not bilingual in Miami Dade.
I wish Miami was English friendly to the Americans, but that is not the case.
Las veces que he ido a Miami no he hablado ni una palabra de inglés.😅
Excelente video, como dice victor melo tú hablas Chileno y cuando en el la restaurante estabas en la caja pagando se te salió un YA, jajajaja
saludos y escucha la canción Si VAS PARA CHILE.... ruclips.net/video/Cb5mercnimQ/видео.html
Is depends what zone you are actually the United States they speak Spanish too
Great Report.. 👌🤗
Español es la primera lengua en Miami y esto devido a la Historia..
People like or not from history the whole Florida Peninsula was Conquest by Hispaniards in the 1500 years..
So Spaniards owned and managed the Peninsula.
Until the USA Government treated the Spaniards with American soldiers to push to give Up the territory to Sale to USA which finally was purchased for USD $ 2.000.000 concided in 1821 as part of the treaty
On regard the Spanish Language it was stablish for the Spaniards at the San Augustin city in Florida stablish on the 8th of September 1565 for Spain.
So the inheritage from Spainish Language comes from that time in Florida as many people ignore it..
La verdad no es hablado por inmigrantes cubanos y venezolanos
Español no es la primera lengua en Miami que hablas? 😂 Florida is a state not peninsula and Spaniards not hispaniards wasn’t conquest by Spaniards
Sorry but I live in Miami and everybody speak English they are few people who speak Spanish
huh
Mostly accurate
Mi idioma es tan bello ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yo habla español en Florida 🌺🐠🏝🌸
callate la boca.
If you go to Miami need to go to 8th street. La carreta good food
All I could think of watching your video was Will Smiths song,
Party in the city where the heat is on
All night, on the beach till the break of dawn
"Welcome to Miami"
"Bienvenidos a Miami"
Hopefully make it to Miami one day, looks a very interesting place
ya !!! is so chilean !! Miami is a pretty city that I have visited several times ! However probably I do not fit with the tropical weather except for holidays.
Coño será normal que en muchas partes de Estados Unidos se hablé español...Si tres cuartas partes de su territorio fue anteriormente de España o al menos descubierto y explorados.por españa.,solo tenéis que mirar los nombres de las ciudades sobre todos estados sureños...Sabéis porque cocodrilo allí se llama Alligator ,cuando Pánfilo de Narvaez allá por el año 1528. Llego a la Florida...vieron a un animal parecido a los lagartos españoles.....pero enormes...dijo uno ese que bicho es...dice el otro coño....el lagarto.....que se transformó al pase al inglés en Alligator....Sabéis cual era el idioma que hablaba el gran jefe indio...Jerónimo...eso mismo..español...Sabéis quien desfiló junto a Washintong pues si el gran almirante español que gracias a él se ganó la batalla de Pensacola y posterior derrota de los ingleses...estatua y n el centro de Washington...retrato en el congreso de los Estados Unidos...Os suena Galveston ...Así que cuando un analfabeto os diga que porque habláis español. Ahí tenéis un pequeño ejemplo....Eso no quita que no tengamos la obligación de aprender inglés......Los idiomas son para entendernos..
Do you catch yourself saying chao instead of adios outside of Chile? 😁
Hahahahaha there are so many towns in Florida that are 100% Spanish speakers
No estoy de acuerdo. Pienso que el inglés es muy predominante en Miami y me parece bien que así sea.
Oye tengo una pregunta, esto del español sucede en toda en area meteopolitana de miami hasta west palm beach??. Y otra cosa, hay alguna otra ciudad en miami con población hispana grande y en expansion?
Buenas tardes: Busca en Google "Hialeah"
Thank the lord there isn’t, my grandma is from palm beach and everyone speaks exclusively English since they’re from New York. There’s a place where white people who speak English can go in Miami that’s nice and doesn’t have illegals
That depends on the person cuz im from miami and i speak both languages
You can speak both languages but when it comes to Miami, Spanish is the primary language and if someone does not speak the language then it is a very difficult place to live.
Hi tio Jon! It's seems you didn't miss la marraqueta, algo parecido pasa pero en menor proporción (aunque ahora es más) en Paris, puesto que cuando a comprar pan, una de las vendedoras es colombiana y conversamos un poco mientras los otros tratan de disimular su sorpresa( ciertamente sé que al franchute le gusta el castellano) well.... Good little holidays and you look like no pain in yours teeth, chauu
Some friend in 2020 who wanted to share their Spanish with me in this quarantine, I want to practice English 😉😉😄😇
Are you german or swiss descent,because Gross means huge or big in German.
El "enrollado" se ve como un ¡¡¡shawarma¡¡ que se vende en Chile en (casi) todas partes. ñam, ñam.
Oh un buen ceviche mixto peruano con un Pisco. Me encanta la comida del continente sur americano,porque mi esposa es Latina.
Siendo que en tu pais hay bastante gente extranjera, mas que aca en Chile se agradece que halla gente que entiende que el racismo esta super mal, sobre todo mis compatriotas chilenos que discriminan a extranjeros aca, sin saber que si el dia de mañana llegan a estados unidos por alguna circunstancia podrian sentir el daño que ellos causan...
Let me say this to make it all clear. If you are an American and English is your only language ...
If you don't know Spanish, and you want to live in Miami, there is one undeniable fact ...
If you do not know Spanish, you are a "sucker." There is no other way to describe it. I am not using foul language here. Ever since the Cubans arrived in Miami 60 years ago, English has seen a tremendous and irreversible decline. They build up the city to be the "capital" of Latin America. It worked; the city became very prosperous. What was the expense? a new social order that works against English speakers, many of them monolingual.
To get the basic information out of away go read this. In Miami, Spanish is the dominant language. From business, to conventions, or even the most benign meeting engagements, Spanish is the language. It is not English or Creole; just Spanish. The culture is distinctively Latin; not surprisingly the main language is Spanish. American culture is almost non-existent. It is just simply a colossal of twenty-Spanish speaking countries all found in Calle Ocho. The Miamians don't take kind to anything or anyone American. Their egos will not allow it.
In Miami, English is irrelevant even if it is an American city. I know English is taught in school, but do not think for a second that it will dampen or hurt Spanish, or act as a bulwark to Spanish's influence. These so-called bilingual programs are just cultural maintenance programs turned on its head to serve Spanish speakers. The Hispanics have consistently found ways to appease the education bosses from Tallahassee and not let ESL be too much of a cultural and personal hinderance in a child's personal life. If I told how the programs "benefitted" these students, it would be too long and tedious to explain. So, I will give you the short and manageable answer here. The programs work only if the child thinks how useful of beneficial English is. In other words, it is the child's choice to go along in his or her pace. There would be no great encouragement or well-rounded reason to be proficient since English is seen as a "gringo's language" in Latinos eyes. So, what does this lead to? Some students are going to be very proficient because they believed it has special significance later in life. While the rest (or a majority) will go with these programs at a leisurely rate, have; teachers that give too many exceptions to the rule thus "kicking the can" for years and years to come until they are just told to "leave." Does that mean the students made progress in English? Yes, they can be conversational and can now write. Nonetheless, it is quite cringing and unnatural. To them, English is a language they became familiar but can never reach a level on par with their native language. The students who become proficient would become members of the city's civil service or elected officials. The others just join the Spanish-language workers and environment just like recently arrived immigrants when mandatory schooling is over. Does this sound like a dice game to you? So, there is no surprise there are grandchildren who are in these programs. I also (hopefully people from Miami reading this) do not believe it is a language they speak "often." That is a preposterous statement meant to injure. I do not know any young Miami student who finishes the school day and suddenly wants to communicate in English. I want to know is for what. Yes, there are students who learned the language proficiently, but the teachers are just there so one can learn. There is nothing in their profession that says they have to be a language chaperon. I believe any student can speak their own language that he or she wants in his or her free time, but in practice that language is still Spanish. This idea of "Spanish at home, English everywhere else" myth needs to be buried. The other idea of "three-generations fate" needs to share the same grave. This is a correct theory from another era. The Cubans who moved to Miami to escape Castro's communism, set in motion to establish the first American city in which Spanish was the prestige language and English sidelined; (or as close to it as humanely possible). They have succeeded and pushed the Anglos out. Does the phrase "Will the last American to leave Miami, please bring the flag" resonate with anyone ?
Now it is time to ask why not learning Spanish makes one a sucker. Folks, the Spanish language is on solid ground. There are absolutely no Hispanics (I chose that word) in Miami Metropolitan Area whose native language is English. It does not matter if they are immigrants or the grandchildren of them who have now come of age. Needless to say, the same applies to those people of whatever ordinal generation who spoke no other language at home other than Spanish. English for now is perched on shaky foundation. Moreover, it is best to say, there is no possible situation that would alter the outcome the status of Spanish than what has happened sixty years prior. If one does not know Spanish and learn it soon, then there is absolutely no good reason to be there. A good job offer says you have to speak Spanish as a requirement for employment. If one wants to establish friendships with Hispanics, you have to learn the language. They are quite reserve when speaking English, whether they are proficient or not. If one has to eat or buy anything, Spanish is the appropriate language available, if one does not like hand gesturing.
One must understand, living in Miami is not like visiting a hotel or entering a retirement village. I am talking about meeting with Hispanic people 24/7. For those English speakers who want to live in prosperous Miami, please do not be deceive of thinking it as a "bilingual city" just because you looked and heard signs and announcements in Spanish and English. It is just a ploy to change your opinion. Miami Metropolitan Area is a top-down "Spanish-speaking destination" at odds with monolingual English speakers. If you don't believe me, visit Liberty City. To put it bluntly, a person who does not know Spanish is a sucker because he would only know despair, destitution, misery, and rejection. That is what he deserves because that is what he earned.
So, what is the point of this commentary? Miami is not a bastion where an "English-speaking environment" can thrive. It is always being marginalized by Spanish and places a strong de-emphasization on American culture. The Miami ruling class, which is mostly Cuban, has played the game well and has nothing to fear. For writing this commentary, I have nothing to fear because I stand by every word. Thus, the fear of criticism does not phase me the least. So here it is in living color. I look forward to anyone's response.
spanish will become the second language in the US. unless russians come to dominate
extenso relato, de facto
@@c-gamer9169 huh
Esas comidas latinas no es nada compara a la comida de mi pais latinoamericano
Well in Miami you gotta learn spanish
That's right. English has been given its eviction notice.
Sounds like you're reinstating the obvious.
I live in Miami. I would guess that 25% of the population speaks little to no English. It might be easier to live here speaking no English than no Spanish.
More like a third but who is counting.
Spanish is our 2nd language. The US I mean.
I was wondering.... wich church are you a part of?
He's a Lutheran...
