Blog Post 3


I was having a conversation with my mother (Anita Rios) and she answer most of my questions that i had. For an example why doesn't every spanish speaking country speaks spanish so we could all understand each other and we wouldn't have any confusion on words that are being said and the agents to get us confused. She told me that it was just the way that they were raised and the style that they grew up with and it just stayed with them. Also, that if she were to have a conversation with someone in Espana they most likely would ask her what is she saying because they both have their own style of spanish speaking and their own words that have different meanings that puerto ricans words mean. 


Conversation: 


Me- Why won't people understand your style of spanish if they are from a different spanish speaking country 


Her- Por ella hablan un español diferente de nosotros y ay mucha palabras que son diferente y para ello son defcil para entender 


Me- Do you have a hard time understanding someone from a different country? 


Her- A veces si porque ella hablan different y el accent es dora para entender 


Me- Do they ever ask you "what did you just say" 


Her- Si pero no es nada malo.


Me- Do it get you mad? 


Her- No? no es na malo solo lo deci que esta tratando a decir y ya. 


Me- Do you ever try to change your spanish for them? 


Her- Mas nunca, no es necesario porque son solo dos o tres palabras que son diferente


me- Which spanish do you think is the best? 


Her- Para mi, el español de los borucas porque el acente es lindo no es como otro estilos de español que son feo 


Me- k

1. How to give signs or phrases that can indicate that we should wrap up the conversation?

2. What is a polite way to say be quiet?

3. If you think the conversation is dull, or you want to add your input, how to politely speak without it sounding like a complete cut-off.

3. I don't want this to be a screenshot, but an audio file so I will be able to actually practice.

​I've been trying to get people from all over the world to compare and contrast the different environments and community lives. Here is my friend Josselynn from Guatemala. She was born there and eventually came to America at a young age. We talked about what her mom expects from her as a Spanish America girl. Her mother feels that most people view hispanics as let downs.. and she wants Josselynn to be better than that. We also discussed a few slang terms as well as the difficulties that josselynn had to face when coming to America. She was so young that she didn't really too many problems, but as she got old she began to miss her country. It was way more amazing than here. 
 
Red = Me
Purple = Josselynn
