Do spanish speakers really call their grandmother "abuela" when speaking english?Why? is there a subtle difference that cannot be translated that compels them to say it in spanish?
no? that's just how it is, similar to how italian american call their grannies "nanas" despite living in the US for generations. america is a cultureless hellhole, so its people held on whatever scraps they can get to build their identities
>>223987285Why would I speak in English with my grandma? Or with anyone irl.And yes I call her abuela.
>>223987408I mean saying "abuela" instead of the word "grandmother" when they are referring to their grandmotherIt's a stereotype apparently that Mexicans in the USA always say abuela>I'm going to see my abuela this sunday
>>223987285you mean chicano subhumans who can't speak spanish calling their granny abuela? they probably think its quirky and very very cultural because they are mindbroken culture warriors
>>223987462Im not aware about what they say in the US, maybe you should ask directly to chikancer instead.
>>223987488why are Mexicans so mean to their diaspora?
>>223987511>you should ask directly to chikancer insteadwhat does that mean?
>>223987462not that different from italian and catalonian diaspora calling their grandparents nonna yayo, you just think it's ridiculous because you're racist
>>223987512they are repugnant. they can't go 2 minutes without telling someone they are mexican and that mexico has this and mexico does that. they blast dogshit "music" to let everyone know they are mexican like as if their mestizo features weren't obvious. then they come here with their forced accent and abusing regionalisms trying to sound cool.i could go on
>>223987512Mexicans are just pieces of shit in general regardless of where they're located
>>223987285hispanics invented having a grandma o algo
>>223987536Your question is badly formulated, since it was meant for chicanos not for Spanish speakers.
>>223987563>not that different from italian and catalonian diaspora calling their grandparents nonna yayoI've never heard of this>you just think it's ridiculous because you're racistman what the fuck are you on about
>>223987338>>223987408>>223987488>>223987511t. gets executed on livestream by cartels for wearing the wrong hat>>223987609harsh but a trvke
>>223987641And here he is, this chikancer gimmick. Not much going on /sp/.
>samefagging
>>223987338How come Spanish speakers love to add a diminutive to everything, even their own abuela. Is an abuelita a granny short in stature o algo así?
>>223987661i'm white with blue eyes and not a drop of non-NW european blood tho
>>223987754It’s a mark of affection

Never seen that bus it has to be because the abuelx latinx don't speak English well so they prefer a term they really understand and have internalized, and also can link feelings to it, the same way new migrants would call their kids with an affectionate term in their tongue instead of one in another language
