Have you lived in the states .Your wording and vernacular tend to make me think some years in the U.S. Or American parents Sara is not exactly a Spanish name. Welcome I'm sure you will be a asset to Dr1l

Sara is a common Spanish name. Usually spelled without the "h" though.
I know lots of Dominicans, most of whom went to bilingual schools, who speak perfect or almost perfect English without ever having lived in an English-speaking country.

Chirimoya said it best. I went to a bilingual school as a kid, that's pretty much it. I've visited the US a million times though, I have a zillion aunts and uncles in Nuevayol [like any other dominican hahahaha :')]

Thanks! and yes, I mean football as in the FIFA football kind. The US is possibly the only country in the world that refers to football as soccer. I meant to ask what is american football as a joke:

I didn't attend a bilingual school, but I was already fluent in English before I could travel abroad.Gringos always ask me if I have lived in The States before.
