There is a Mexican girl in my class and we got into an argument about variants of the Spanish language. She says that Mexican Spanish isn't Spanish and that if a Mexican goes to Spain that the Spaniard and the Mexican won't understand each other. I understand that pronunciation is a little bit different, and I also know that Mexican Spanish has indigenous pre-Spanish Mexican words added to it, but I know it's not a completely different language.
Mexican men that date American woman – do you think you would/could ever marry one even though their culture is different and they don’t speak your language but would be willing to learn or is it never the same as being with a Mexican girl?

I ask this question with an open mind, I've heard it all...I have been cussed at, spit at, ridiculed, laughed at, you name it, because I look mexican and do not speak spanish. I know what I have learned in school and that is about it. It never occurred to me that this is a "problem" for people who speak spanish, until I was about 14, when I started working. People told me I should be ashamed of myself, and would make me cry at first. I wanted to learn so bad that I would stress about it in high school and try to learn and do all my other school work, but it is very hard to learn. Now I feel like I am only trying to learn to please others and not myself, it would be great to know, spanish, but a part of me has a feeling of resentment, that I am being forced to do this. If I didn't look so mexican would I still have to learn? My father tells me I don't have to, this is america, he speaks spanish, and now never uses it, he feels that I shouldn't have to, but i have mixed feelings...he doesn't know what its like to be made fun of and not even be able to understand your own co-workers. Im also mixed with philipino, american indian, and irish, but this means nothing to anyone else but myself because they only see a mexican girl. I wish I could be more informed about my mexican culture, but people have told me even if I learn spanish, I didnt grow up with the culture and would never fit in anyways...anybody have any thoughts on this? something i havent heard before? Im not asking for anyone to be sorry for me, but it would be refreshing to hear something encouraging, or helpful.
I want to tell s Mexican girl who works on the family ranch that I enjoyed the adventure story she wrote.
Thanks. I could have looked it up on babelfish myself as some did but I needed an answer with someone who spoke the language in real life. Thanks
i am taking this mexican girl that worked for my family for 1 and a half years. she quit recently but i asked her to go to the mall. she said yes but i speak very little spanish. what are some things i should do or say?
I speak spanish fluently and I like this mexican girl. She doesnt know I speak spanish.
Would it be a plus if she knew I was bilingual?
Thanks
