Historias orales: beginners Ejercicios de español LA Youth » Immigrant dreams I always knew my parents had come here from Mexico illegally but I didn’t know any of the details. I was busy hanging out with my family and friends, going to school or longing to go to a show for the rockabilly band the Horrorpops. I would cry when I saw the news reports about people drowning in the Rio Grande or dying in the desert while trying to cross the border, but then I would go back to my life. I never gave my parents’ stories much thought until the recent immigration debate. As I heard about the protests and the school walkouts over HR 4437, the bill that would make it a felony to be undocumented, I became curious about how and why my parents had come here. When I was a child, my dad and grandma told me stories about Mexico so I would appreciate my home. But I hardly knew anything about my dad’s childhood. One afternoon, as I relaxed on the bench on our front porch, my dad sat next to me. Growing up in Puebla, Mexico, my dad had a childhood like any other kid.

Language differences: English - Spanish Introduction: Spanish is a Romance language and part of the Indo-European language family. It is closely related to Italian and Portuguese. Spanish is a major language, with up to 400 million native speakers in Spain, Latin America and the USA. Alphabet: Spanish uses the Latin alphabet. The English writing system itself causes no particular problems to Spanish learners. Phonology: The phonological system of Spanish is significantly different from that of English, particularly in the aspects of vowel sounds and sentence stress. "European Spanish speakers, in particular, probably find English pronunciation harder than speakers of any other European language." Spanish has 5 pure vowels and 5 diphthongs. Producing English consonant sounds is not so problematic for many Spanish learners, but difficult enough! Spanish is a syllable-timed language*. * See this Language Log page for a more nuanced dscussion of the prosody of Spanish. Do you have sister? Reference: Coe, N. in Swan, M. & Smith, B.
