Spanglish in the States

When I was starting to learn English (as I am right now...) I'd get really flustered if I had to talk to an audience of more than 20... something that would not happen to me when talking in Spanish... (I can tell you about feeling "retarded" in a big way...) And to one degree or another one may sound "retarded" or simply "foreign" or "uneducated" or whatever... The bottom line is that if you don't practice you are not going to develop the skill... any skill for that matter.

So, there you have my 2 Euros... (cents are getting cheaper every day...)

@JPablo,
Si, esto es triste sobre de economia de Estados Unidos pero espero que sera mejor pronto [when the crow turns white=pagputi ng uwak (Filipino)]
I'm not really complaining, just venting

Dices la verdad cuando dices sobre practicando para mejorar la (¿le?) habilidad.

Asi necesitamos ajustar los dineros idiomaticos con hoy inflation!
Te debo $0.64
