Why are they breaking the law?
Chela, are you an illegal immigrant??? go back to puerto rico!

looking for someone to go out to eat with and spend time with. would like to find someone that likes to fish, go for rides, hold hands, kiss, watch t.v.,talk and have good clean fun. some one that doesn't use foul talk in any language, someone who likes people. some one who like to joke, laugh and have fun. some one who likes cookouts, gardening. some one who at least likes some of these things. likes taking walks in the park, etc.

I need help with history and I need to write an essay on those 3 topics.

I have a big mexican community where I work. I want to learn a bit about the language. I want to know what language to learn. I know there are the mexicans and then there is spain. I want to learn the language the mexicans speak.

This is Calvin. I know that the Mexican culture and Chilean culture are pretty similar. But my question is about what is the similarities between the people in Mexico and in Chile? People in both of these countries speak Spanist as primary language.

And what's the difference between these two countries? How are the cultures/traditional similar and differ from each other?

Ok, so I like this mexican guy and he likes me back. But the problem is he speaks a little bit of english, and I speak very little spanish. But we really like each other. I dont know what to do. We dont get to talk much because he works a lot. What is yalls opinion?

I would like either, but both is best, a written out list of steps each partner takes or an illustrated set of steps for dances like the Raspa and the Mexican hat dance but focusing on the less known dances of Mexico, like El Venado, La Zandunga, Los Matlachines, Jesusita en Chihuahua and La Bamba. Thanks.

I'm doing a common Mexican "Mythconceptions" Project for my Spanish class, and was wondering if most native Mexicans (living in Mexico) know more English than most Americans know Spanish.
ie. If Mexicans know how to ask simple questions, and Americans only know around 5 words.

So what the Mexicans took all the sheatty jobs no one would perform but the chinese are different, they are taking good well paid jobs who should be held by American citizens we can trust.

Can anyone give me any Mexican Cultural spelling words that I can use for 2nd graders?

I need at least 10 and appropriate for 2nd graders can learn and this is not a learning class to speak Spanish. Just words that we use every day in English like a poncho.

Thank you for your help!

I am so sick of hearing how poor Mexico is and that is why they come here. And that many years ago this was mexico, etc etc. Fact is, its not. Why is it so hard for mexicans to come here legally and learn English. If they did they would be respected. Walking around in America with the mexican flag saying they demand to be treated equally when they are here legally, speaking in spanish, is not going to help them. Also, why is it that they are leaving mexico beacuse its poor and run down, yet thats what they turn their neighborhoods they move into in THE UNITED STATES! I would think they would want to respect it more, not turn it into mexico.

Example: A person born in East Los Angeles, CA, lives there for the first 20 years of their life, yet never has learned to speak with a Mexican accent, like their family, friends and neighbors do.

I have a school project. I have answer questions about mexican holiday food and bring in a main dish and a dessert enough for 20-25 people. I'm really not sure what to bring in. Please recommend some easy to make dishes and add some information related to it. I would really be helpful you you added a link for the recipe or just wrote it here.

When I go to Mcdonald's they can't understand me. And no spanish is not the same
language as mexican. I've asked people from Spain it's not even close.

What does Tono Hechame una xfa mean?
10 points for best answer !

Please help to translate these into Spanish. Gracias.

Do you have some free time ?
Can you call a taxi for me ?
I need to know where you are located.

My Magmum XL's are getting a little tight so I need to try something different.

Suggestions?

Truth what did spell wrong?

I have to write a poem about being concern of who I am based from other poems that were written by people who had trouble in society being a certain race. I'm half white and half Mexican and I'm having a hard time figuring out what I should say in it. I don't look mexican, but people say I look russian or french A little help would be appreciated.

So what the Mexicans took all the sheatty jobs no one would perform but the chinese are different, they are taking good well paid jobs who should be held by American citizens we can trust.

They got like 1 Billion people in China and they want to come to America and marrying our people, dont they got enough?

Its a shame to be part of the mexican culture and not know a word in spanish. They like Tejano music like Selena, Bobby Pulido, Tropa F, intocable and so on but dont speak spanish. Cmon guys if you like tejano at least know how to speak some spanish. If you dont know who Los tigres del Norte are, then you aint Mexican.

Y'all just keep spitting them out and you will get there eventually.

I mean, I assume Spain considering they speak Spanish.

Books, Names... Restaurants??

By next year, all women golfers must speak english or face suspension. The top golfers are Mexican, Thai, Chinese, Korean etc.. Is this rule fair? Why would they do this?

What is a good thesis for the Mexican American war?
I am doing a paper on the "unprovoked and unjustifiable war of agression" also known was the Mexican war. I am having trouble crafting not only an acurate, however a well written thesis. If i could get some help or pointers on what would be the best thesis to write on this paper that would be a big help. Thanks.

I was watching one in Spanish, and I was really surprised because I could understand it perfectly. Is the accent they used in the Latin American dubs Mexican, Colombian, Venezuelan, just some generic Latin American pronunciation?

I went to a Mexican restaurant
It is owned by Mexicans, they serve Mexican food and the waiters even speak Spanish.
The restaurant atmosphere is also very similar to Mexico
However when I pay the Bill they refuse to accept Mexican currency.
Why did they do this?
Can they be sued? If so, under what law?
