i totally get it. this isn’t as bad as yours but my “friend” fucked up my mental state for a while, nothing was ever good enough for them, they treated me like an animal that they could control. they’re only nice when they need attention/validation, they would act like nothing happened and that everything was fine after calling me useless just before.
what a god-awful human being.
i speak spanish, a very common language in the us. most of my friends were also spanish speakers, so we did this a lot, especially if we were discussing something personal between us, dirty, or talking about another teacher.
obviously, we didn’t do this around a spanish teacher or a spanish-speaking one, but we did this a lot most of the time.
ohhh, makes sense. i meant for example, if a polish person who lived by the polish-german border ended up learning german to communicate with germans or not.
men jeg kan ikke si at jeg blander ikke sammen språkene. siden jeg er neurodivergent, er det tider som jeg kan ikke tenke på ordene på et språk.
hvis jeg er på ferie med min familie som snakker spansk og noen snakker engelsk på meg, jeg er kanskje ikke svare 😅
oh sure! i’ll say this part in english for everyone who wants to read.
my dad is from peru but of cuban descent (peruvian from dad, cuban-peruvian from his mom). naturally, both his parents spoke spanish and lived in a spanish-speaking country, so dad grew up speaking spanish.
however, he lived near the peru-brazil border, where he learned portuguese from portuguese speakers he saw. (my dad’s family mostly only speaks spanish though or spanish and english)
at around ten i think, he came to the us and started to learn english.
my mom is an american of polish descent, polish is her second language when her family started teaching it to her as a young girl. (but her dad either knows spanish and didn’t teach her or doesn’t know it as a latino.)
i use spanish mainly at home, with paternal family, and with my spanish-speaking friends. english with most people because it’s a widely spoken language online and in the us, and portuguese with my dad and brazilian online people.
ooohhh. my dad’s first language is spanish, second language portuguese, then english :)
my mom’s first is english, then polish
also, that makes complete sense, i’ve been told i speak portuguese better than english/spanish.
that too, i just said polish because that was the keyboard i was using
it’s polish quotation marks, i accidentally had the foreign keyboard.
saw something similar with someone on lemmy actually, that since they spoke a foreign language, they were some other user creating an alt and therefore a bad person.
this is what happened, im seth macfarlane
that’s who i was thinking of when i wrote this
guau que bueno
bien y usted?
