Don't let that bother you. It's simply ignorance in action.

Or "American, Canadian,etc"

Personally at first I was surprised people were so ignorant, but now I find it sort of humorous.

Today a girl said she didn't speak Mexican, and I corrected her and told her she meant "Spanish". we went back and forth for about 15 min because she claimed "Mexican" was correct and not Spanish

it is an mexican language

I live in California and I want to learn Mexican Spanish. Do you know of any books or websites that could specifically teach me Mexican Spanish?

this mexican girl that speaks no english has worked at our family restaurant for a year until she quit recently in may. i speak some spanish but we mostly communicate through text message with translations from yahoo answers. a month after she quit i asked her to go out and we went out 3 times. i took her to the mall, bowling, aquarium. i kissed her on the third time we went out. one week later i took her to play tennis and we didnt go out for a month. we didn't communicate very much either after we kissed. then i asked her out to go shopping and said yes. i bought her a few things because she is poor and after i dropped her off she kissed me, (she made the move) i told her that i cared about her but i dont know what to do now. she is extremely pretty and has guys hitting on her non-stop. she is 23 and good good catholic girl. she is very very nice. i dont know if she likes me or she kissed me because i bought her some clothes. what to do?

The paper needs to cover the following things: linguistic, political, social, economic, religious, and familial conventions and/or statuses of four Hispanic groups living in the United States and I have no idea where to look any help would be appreciated

I am just wondering because on someones question they wrote and I quote....."You aint no mexican if you can talk that way,"
So I'm just wondering exactly how does a mexican talk??? And the person who said it claims to be PRO ILLEGAL.........don't believe me...here's the link look under her additional comments....

I don't know about some of you, but where I come from that would be called hypocritical, or at the least a little prejudice......what are your thoughts???
Amazing the ones who usually scream racist have nothing to say......why am I not surprised??

I just read that the Mexican truck drivers, now allowed to go anywhere in the US are upset that they will have to be able to speak and understand english. This seems safe to me. Why are they upset? US drivers in Mexico will have to speak Spanish, and no one in the US is upset over that.

Don't they realize that GOP Christians can heal the wounds and raise the dead if they were suppose to follow the Bible and not oppress the minorities?
Tell that to Canadians because we never asked them to close their borders when they were spreading avian flu after traveling to Asia.

If I'm so ignorant, how come I am the one wanting to hire them

would like to learn how to cook & prepare authentic mexican food!!
With the exception of silverbir..... thank you for all of your great answers!!

When there trying to dis some spanish kid all they could talk about are mexican why is that? they got nothing else to say about the other type of spanish people or what even though am not mexican they claim me as one

I have heard this question many times and i cant figure out how ignorant do you have to be to ask such a dumb question. Hello Mexican is a race not a language. Or they ask "are you spanish" When in reality their trying to ask if you hispanic. MMM...spanish is a language duh. So anybody care to explain why some people make such a dumb mistake while asking this?

near the border ? post post a you tube etc video to show the difference if you can and thank you
thank you so much Javi !! i like your answer the best and after listening to it all - i like the mexican language the best !! thanks so much --- i agree the spanish in spain isnt all that pretty -- the plain mexican language is better

And what would you suggest, and what would you change?

This paper is for an English class and my teacher is super tough . I don't have a clue on what's the best way to start . plz help.

I don't know. What do you think?
Whoops! I meant, "Sometimes people-"
I totally messed up the heading. I hope you know what I meant.

How to improve your pronunciation in english when you dont live in an english speaking country?

We were taught specifically to NOT learn the vosotros forms because we would probably never use them. Now I want to visit Spain but I am not sure if I will be able to understand them.

Why?

Its 4 A Tattoo. Ne1 No Ne Sites Were I Can Get It Translated 4 Free? I Want 2 Put It Behind My Right Ear. Gr8. No H8ers.
P.S. My Name Is Shareef, Like:
Omar Shareef (Actor)
Mazar-e-Shareef (Place In Afghanistan)
Shareef Don't Like It (Clash Lyrics)
No, I want it in Mexican, like "Tenochtitlan" or "Nezahualcoyotl" or "Huitzilopochtli" or "Watcho mi trucha, ese." I think it looks cool, and it would prolly also sound cool (although I've never heard it). Entiendes, Méndez?

So some people are saying Pancho and some are saying Punta. Which is it? Should I just split the difference and go for PUTO???

Im planning to visit California, and I know there are a lot of people who speak spanish.

English is the official language, but I dont know if I should speak english with mexicans too.

Thanx in advance.

Rather than the Spanish and English?

Lets hear about the tales of Colo Colo, Cruz Azul and Mexico's best striker for the last 30 years.. Ono Bravo!
Just noticed that there's a Mexican football section on this too..
DOES ANYONE HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOUR?

Im just wondering how many countries speak mexican. i know brazil is the only south american country that doesnt speak mexican.

or is there spanish different from eachother?

or is it just the same with very minor differences?

I speak both english and spanish (native language) fluently and with their correct accents and everything...but whenever I try to speak a different language (like french) I have more of a mexican accent and not english accent. Why is that?
