I understand Jamaican Patois, but can't speak it. Spanish is limited to small conversations and reading. Is there a language you are DYING to learn?
Full-fluency of Spanish. Italian and Portugese would be my next options after. Maybe Japanese too. Are your parents/relatives from a non-English speaking country?
Yes, my parents came to Miami in the 1970s. While my mom's side is Jamaican, my Dad's side came from El Salvador. Do you speak one language at home, and another outside of home?
Some Spanish with my grandmother when I visit her. Are you currently learning a language? - Why? (fun, work, New Years Resolution?)
Casually learning Spanish with Duolingo and enabling Spanish audio + English subtitles when watching movies & playing video games with the option. Despite having Spanish ancestry, only my grandmother would speak full Spanish around me so would love to communicate with her and others even more. Have you previously known a language, but forgotten over time?
I did forget a portion of Spanish the last decade with the lack of practice and being away from family, but I regained a portion back after working retail. What languages could you greet someone in, but not necessarily understand the language?
Italian and Japanese.
