  1. Are you latino?


  2. I have been in over 30 countries(including Mexico, Panama, & Spain where a dialect of Spanish is normally spoken) and with the exception of France, any time I attempted to speak a country's language, I was met with appreciation, additional words/phrases and aid in pronunciation.

    When in France, they 'pretended' not to be able to understand me, probably because I didn't speak 'perfect' (patooey!) French.  Thus, my disdane for the French.  In Toulon, I actually had to speak Italian in one shop. Yet in Tunisia and Mauritius, my French was easily understood by the locals.

  3. well alot of my family are from cuba but they are black.. ( there are black hispanics) and when they speak spanish mexicans look at us funny. like they think we learned spanish or something..  

  4. Its good that you are learning another language, it maybe helpful to you in the future.

  5. who cares

  6. Spanish is a language from Spain so you should be more worried about talking to a Spaniard but i beleive Latinos would like to hear it

    You should say Hispanic as Latino is an umbrella term to both Spanish and Portuguese speaking people of the American ie Latin American the Spanish speaking ones are called Hispanic

  7. They definitely won't be mad at you so why not!

  8. Latinos always make fun of you. That's their inherit nature. Just do it, im sure they'd be impressed, they won't admit it though.


  9. Mexicans need to quit being lazy uneducated lowlifes and learn English. Eaither that, or go back to Mexico. I'm sick of seeing these trashy people walk all over us.
