Funny enough, my parents used Spanish as a 'secret language’s when they needed to talk about something sensitive in front of us kids (or just something they didn’t want us to understand). Was the motivation for most of us to take Spanish at some point
Which is totally fine, in case you’re wondering. Speaking Spanish like a gringo is so much better than speaking English loudly and slowly and occasionally sneaking in a word like “cerveza” or saying “mi casa su casa” lol. It’s great that you’re making an effort to learn — y espero que el aprendizaje sea divertido! :)
My mom’s Puerto Rican. Tried to speak Spanish to her and, while she appreciated the effort, she said I speak like a gringo!
Sounds like her fault, ha
