"Do you speak Spanish? NO! Wow, you look like you should speak Spanish. You know...like...culturally." Has this ever happened to you? Yeah, me too. Being a non-spanish speaking Latina is rough man. But never fear! Just like everyone will tell you, you can still learn it with this "You Can Still Learn Spanish" Package:
1. Unit 1
Un-learn the Spanish you learned in grade school because it's not “your” Spanish.
2. Unit 2
Re-learn vocabulary & grammar
3. Unit 3
Practice speech
4. Unit 4
Travel to where (some of) your ancestors come from.
5. Unit 5
Learn slang that you will never be able to use correctly. And be the butt of jokes you will never be able to understand completely, much less put into your own mouth.
6. Unit 6
Leave Latino America and return to your home where you came from.
7. Unit 7
Find ways (such as books, chisme, the internet) to re-learn the wisdom and customs and culture that weren't passed down to you, even though you’ll never know if they're right.
8. Unit 8
Try writing it. Keep speaking it.
This simple 8 Unit Path to regaining your heritage can be yours at the small high price of giving up your shame.
