Problemas de un writer
Gloria Anzalduas writes in a peculuar maner were she intergrates both her understanding of the spanish language and english language.
But is it really a problema?
so I created a list
  1. Communicatinng with other monolingual people .
                   Ex) Going to Mexico and struggling while trying to explain something to your grandparents . It goes something like this
                         - Abuelita  crees que este vestido me machea? o me lo ago switch?


 2. Communicating with your friends at school.
              
             Ex) Hey Itza hiciste la homework de Pereyra?

3. Writing an essay and knowing a "smart" fancy word in spanish and trying to intergrate it to your essay.
            

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Funny Workplace Ecard: We normalmente speak en Spanglish in nuestra office. It's not un problema except cuando nosotros begin escribendo como this.

 Spanglish Sin Barreras

Parquear : To park .

My mom's definition in a sentence:

Mijo parqueate en la Wal-Mart.

Proper definition in a sentence in Spanish :

Hijo te puedes estacionar en Wal-Mart  .

Proper Definition in English:

Can you park at Wal-Mart.

“Until I am free to write bilingually and to switch codes without having always to translate, while I still have to speak English or Spanish when I would rather speak Spanglish, and as long as I have to accommodate the English speakers rather than having them accommodate me, my tongue will be illegitimate. I will no longer be made to feel ashamed of existing. I will have my voice: Indian, Spanish, white. I will have my serpent's tongue - my woman's voice, my sexual voice, my poet's voice. I will overcome the tradition of silence.”
