Spanglish Soccer Talk

Currently, Salvatore speaks more Spanish than English.  It is very exciting and I am learning new words and more correct phrases right along with him.  Most of the time, he speaks clearly in either language and is easy for most to understand.  Sometimes, though, his Spanglish doesn't make much sense to any of us, and we just laugh.  He is speaking mostly in Spanish here, with the exception of "Here you go."  I try to translate, but mostly it is entertaining to hear him so excited over his little soccer bobble head dolls.  He loves to sit on his top bunk (I can barely make it up there anymore) and play.  And I still make the hike up that skinny little ladder because I love to play with him.

  1. You're so lucky to have a bilingual family! We know some words in Tagalog, but they're limited- dalaginding (little girl), tanga (dummy), mahal kita (I love you)... Even if her Lola makes her fluent, when would she use it?
