I felt that one because my mother is the only one in my family that speaks Spanish while everyone else, including myself, speaks both. For those who wants to be parents, it would be upsetting if your own child or children doesn’t even know the language of your people; which, in a way, makes you feel disconnected to your roots.
This hits hard as a child of immigrants. My parents have passable English for day to day activities, but when they meet my friends etc I wish my friends knew how funny, smart and sweet my parents are in their native tongue, rather than just polite and friendly.
This is maybe the most emotional scene for me involving Gloria. My mom is from Puerto Rico and I remember my little brother making fun of her accent when we were kids. She must have been so hurt. She never gave up on us tho and she would always sit down and make sure I have my homework done. ❤❤❤
"Do you even know how smart I am in Spanish?" I know I'm talking about Sofía Vergara and not Gloria Pritchett, but I can actually say that she really is clever and assertive in Spanish, quick-witted and fun. Many English speakers seem to take people with heavy accents as less intelligent, and prefer to ignore the true mark of intelligence when it comes to speaking a second language: fluency. A heavy accent can just mean that the person learned the language late in life , or just maybe doesn't have a good ear for it.
English is INCREDIBLY difficult to learn too so it takes a lot of effort to get it right. That’s why I always make it a point to appreciate the effort whenever I’m talking with someone and they feel the need to apologize for not having the best English.
@@Pogol13It really depends. I can see Latin Americans struggling to learn it, but for the people in the Nordic countries or the Netherlands, it doesn't appear to be too difficult (but still requires work!).
This a seriously under appreciated scene in television. Its a very powerful statement that most dont get. I only speak english but thats why i can only imagine dealing with this type of frustration. Its why i go outve my way to give credit to ppl whom english is not a first language because so many dont get credit for how well they speak it since so many they speak to expect it
Ya that might be true, but when you come to another country where the language is different from yours this is something you have to deal with. Yes it is nice for him to learn for her so she doesn't feel left out. Although i do feel for her she should of started working with him sooner or said something sooner. Going to another country and trying to make people assimilate to anthers previous language and culture isn't the way to go and causes more issues down the road. If she wanted a Spanish speaking family she should of married some one who spoke Spanish.
@@ryanlapeer4230 If I was married to Gloria, I would have learned her language through love. Every time I wanted to make love she would require several minutes of conversation in Spanish. In 2-3 months I would be fluent. Anyone would.
My ex was Hungarian. Her English was near perfect. Her daughter (my stepdaughter) didn't speak a word of English, but she quickly learned and became fluent. She even made the English honor role within a year. Sadly, she then refused to speak Hungarian because she wanted to fit in and eventually lost the language entirely.
Wow im not even Hispanic person but I can relate as a non-native english speaker, when i type or write I can have time to think for words, but when I speak I keep stuttering and repeating the same lines I said cause my language's grammar is exactly opposite to English🤦♀️ I'm from S.K.🇰🇷😂 loved this❤
@@CharlieBrown20XD6 I'd appreciate their effort ofc! why not XD If they wanted me to then I'll correct them and help them with my language lol isn't it obvious tho
In my working life, I often dealt with people from all over who were trying to live, but also speak a new language. I always told them their English was better than my ?...
Imagine a citizen raised in their own country, especially a country where English is not the official/de facto language, but spoke English more fluently than their own mother tongue since childhood. That’s even more frustrating
I do have to wonder. He hired the same tutor back. Won’t he still have the same jealous concerns with Gloria around 😂? Love his comment about the swim instructor 😂.
I really wish we actually saw Jay speaking Spanish. It was only twice in the show and IIRC, the second time they talked about it, they treated as something new, not a continuation. Also, why didn't Gloria ever teach Manny Spanish when he was a baby? I cannot imagine not speaking my own language to my child.
So Gloria moved to a mostly Elnglish-speaking country, married an English-speaking man from an English-speaking area and now she dislikes the fact that she is the only Spanish-speaking one?
"'for once it would be nice to speak to someone in my own language in my own home' How... about... marrying someone... who also speaks Spanish. Crazy, right?
This might be the most unnecessary comment under a video showcasing the challenges of a relationship which shows how love transcends languages and cultures even if it is difficult sometimes I bet you’re fun at parties
Okay but they didn't fall in love the second they saw each other, they started dating. Gloria could've simply dated someone who speaks Spanish if it was important to her.@@ynglpws3623
Jay and Gloria have the healthiest relationship in this show. They both actively listen to each other and improve because of it.
the best marriage are often the second or third marriages
@@simunator also applies to raising children. also why first borns are usually damaged
Indeed, they are so wonderful, isn't it funny that the couple with the most prejudice has the best relationship in this show?
@@urullereurol2216 their marriage works best because it's both their 2nd. They have something to compare to hehe
Mostly it's Jay. Jay's the communication expert.
aw.. nearly got a tear when she said 'for once it would be nice to speak to someone in my own language in my own home" 😢
yea I really felt for Gloria here
then she should have married a spanish speaking old man, not an english speaking old man.

She was on track to become the world's hottest dentist before she gave it up three years in for modeling and showbiz. She's not an idiot.
This hits hard as a child of immigrants. My parents have passable English for day to day activities, but when they meet my friends etc I wish my friends knew how funny, smart and sweet my parents are in their native tongue, rather than just polite and friendly.
@@pbdye1607 You have some wrong ideas about dentists.
So smart enough to be a golddigger? She did that in English.
@@kalanigrager3709 A gold digger would have a pattern. She dated one rich guy who initiated the relationship.
And that concludes today’s lesson from Jay on Emotional Intelligence. What an amazingly well written character.
That speech that she just gave is one of the many reasons why she is my favorite person in this series I love Gloria
These two are one of the healthiest couples in the history of tv shows.
That last line is so endearingly funny and sweet. 🥰
This is maybe the most emotional scene for me involving Gloria.
My mom is from Puerto Rico and I remember my little brother making fun of her accent when we were kids. She must have been so hurt. She never gave up on us tho and she would always sit down and make sure I have my homework done. ❤❤❤
My mom is also from Puerto Rico, and if I made fun of her accent she would've smacked my mouth to the other side of my head.
@@EATSLEEPDRIVE2002 hahah savage, or should I say jajaja salvaje :D
Make SURE that you give her a tight hug the next time you meet.
It will mean the world to that woman 🙂
My mom is from Argentina. Same story, me and my brothers were too cruel to her. We are trying to make it up to her now.
That's why I have a picture of of Mitchell and his prom date shaking hands 😂😂

@@TheTimplatteI don't think it's "incredibly difficult" to learn. Obviously, it IS difficult for some peope, but with practice you can learn it!
@@TheAmazingHoho576I’ve heard several ESL learners say otherwise.
English is easy to get the basics but very difficult to master as a second language because it’s such a mongrel language. So many idiosyncrasies

Duo gives Jay an irrefutable offer: Spanish or vanished
Not the context I’d though I’d see this in, but I am not complaining 🤣
Jay is so loving and sweet to Gloria
That was genuinely a really wholesome thing to say.

still holds the record at polk high
He was also the hometown hero of Urbania, Ohio, and nearly defeated the Little Giants!
My dad did this for my mom and English is his second language also ( He’s Hungarian ) and it meant so much to her

Imagine a citizen raised in their own country, especially a country where English is not the official/de facto language, but spoke English more fluently than their own mother tongue since childhood. That’s even more frustrating
Lol I saw that in the Philippines
@@anonymouslyopinionated656 that’s been my story
Jay better tread lightly or Griselda might pay a visit.
The things we do for the people we love.
Why does Jay stop with the spanish tutor?
In season 11 he is trying to learn from an app- so why does he not continue with the gesture?
That was my same exact thought
He got insecure
Because the writers probably forgot and didn't care
Western shows, especially comedy, usually don't have any sort of continuation. If they do, it's usually the exception rather than the rule.
You're right I clicked on this clip thinking it'll be from the last season.
Sophia is the best. Period.
Fix your app it’s not working in the Nevada/Arizona area
Aw thats really sweet.
Arguably America’s finest physical comedienne since Lucy…
She speak English so goodly

He's rich.

It's the foundational premise of a TV show. Jeesh.

As Latino here, the thing is that should actually think in English not translate in your head and then talk. That was like the second class of English

That must be why she is so bad at it, I just think in the foreign language when I speak it.
