This segment aired on Telemundo 51 Miami today about Spanglish-Made in Miami.
Those who live or visit often and know Miami well should be quite aware of how Spanish is spoken in this city. Spanglish (Hecho en Miami) is its own brand. Many people codeswitch especially the second and third generation Spanish speakers who find it difficult to learn Spanish (even with all that Spanish around them). It seems harder and harder for each generation and one can see the change from generation to generation. For ex, abuelita does not speak English and her grandchildren know words in Spanish but are not fluent or as they get older don’t learn to speak at all.
