Espanglish: Espanches

Espanglish(Espanches)


Spanish is the language that you learn when you go down south to mexico. It is the language you learn when you travel to spain. It is a romance language, descended from universal latin. It is beauty, romance, and power. This is not the language that is being created in the south of texas. There, we have a new language, a spanglish of sorts. I don't speak spanish, but I speak a kind of spanish-english hybrid. For example, I might say something like this: Es necesito por me parquiar al fronte del estructo. What does this translate to? I must park in the front of the building(Lit: It is neccessary for me to park myself at the front of the structure.)

This language is incredibly fun. And what's more, it is much easier to understand if you are a native english speaker who is learning spanish. Try to understand the next few paragraphs:

Por supuesto, no es obviar por los gentes del sur de Tejas lo entender. Y está porque es necesario que los personas del sur ser istruyido de esta idioma estreño. Que primer, haberíamos creatado un libro que los presenta las frases nueves. Communicando consistamente se trabaja al solidad de la idioma. ¿Y entonces los pópulos se entienden?

Ok. So, what did I just say? Here's a translation, followed by a literal translation:

Of course, it isn't obvious for the people of south texas to understand it. And it's because it's necesary that the people of the south are instructed in this strange language. And so first, we will have created a book that presents the new forms. Consistent communication will work towards solidity of the language. And then will the people understand it?

Wow! This is fun! So, ¿De que nombre lo haberíamos llamado? ¡Espanches, Por Supesto!
