  • "Spanglish" is a hybrid style of speaking that combines grammar and vocabulary from both English and Spanish. Contrary to popular belief, Spanglish doesn't reflect poor knowledge of either language. Instaed, Spanglish speakers generally command both individual languages and an additional set of rules governing how, when, and why to switch between the two. Linguists call this "code-switching." Spanglish reflects the complex mixture of identities that characterize Latino life in America.
    Excerpt from the documentary "Spanish Voices"

    --------------------------------------------
    ABOUT SPANISH VOICES
    The unprecedented growth of the Spanish-speaking populations in the Southeastern US has led to major language issues about the co-existence of English and Spanish. Spanish Voices tells the story of those who have participated in this change- through interviews with recent immigrants, long-term residents, musicians, dancers, language instructors, and students. Their narratives show how their experiences are unique to the Southeast as well as common to language contact situations worldwide.

    I think it's cool that they created a hybrid. That's what language is. Adapting and perfecting communication based on the location in which you live. It's brilliant and fascinating stuff.

    I’m kinda like the first guy, if I’m speaking English I’m speaking English and if I’m speaking Spanish I’m speaking Spanish, mixing them just doesn’t come naturally to me and it just sounds awkward to me, however I do use those anglicized Spanish words like “lonchar” “parquear” “troca” but i try not to because they’re really not real words

      It's very common in the USA among Hispanic Americans, they are heritage speakers, not true native speakers. They learned Spanish or Spanglish at home and spoke English at school, and it's common to switch between languages among other bilingual speakers. I speak Spanglish with my parents all the time. It's super common among Hispanics in Texas. It's basically standard Spanish with English words thrown in. It's broken Spanish.

    What will the English language be similar in 100 years?
    One way of predicting the future is to look back at the past. The global role the English language plays today as a lingua franca - used as a signification of communication by speakers of different languages - has parallels in the Latin of pre-modern Europe.
    Having been propagated by the success of the Roman Empire, Classical Latin was kept alive as a standard scribed medium throughout Europe long after the fall of Rome. But the Vulgar Latin used in propagated continued to change, forming new dialects, which in time gave rise to the modern Romance languages: French, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, and Italian.
    Similar developments may be traced today in the use of the English language around the globe, especially in countries where it functions as a second language. New “interlanguages” are emerging, in which features of the English language are mingled with those of other native tongues and their pronunciations.
    Despite the Singaporean government’s attempts to promote the use of Standard British English language through the Speak Good English Movement, the mixed language known as “Singlish” remains the variety spoken on the street and in the home.

    Spanglish mutilates both languages. I have to catch myself not to switch between languages. I sense that I can't articulate in that one language, which makes me sound so uneducated. It's best to stick to one language at a time.

      You should really watch this video by Philogynoir: ruclips.net/video/d77I4V4kcwQ/видео.html. You have the right to speak the way you do. It doesn't make you sound uneducated, that's may be what you've been told by others who don't understand what it means to be truly multi-cultural, multi-lingual--diverse period. Or you've been told that by others within your community who don't want you to be looked down on by people outside of it who may not know how to code-switch or understand only half the conversation because they didn't bother to learn a language that a significant portion of the population in their city/state/country uses.

      I feel this way too, if I’m talking to my parents I’m just gonna speak Spanish or if I’m speaking to others I’ll speak English, only time I speak a sort of Spanglish is with my siblings or cousins. There’s people out there that speak broken English and broken Spanish cause all they know is Spanglish, it can really be a bad habit at times.

Como siempre aprendemos la lengua materna a medias y tambie aprendemos el ingles a medias lo del ingles lo digo por los hispanos nacidos aqui. Y creemos que nos escuchamos bien solo somos dignos de companion. Aprendamos las lenguas Como son para obtener satisfaccion y para que nos vaya mejor en la vida.

    Spanglish to me are words that don't exist in the vocabulary of Spanish nor English. For example, "Me frikie" Which is meant to mean "I freaked out" in English and "Me asuste" in Spanish.
