Title: How's your Spanglish, bro?

I don't know if anyone else saw the recent census finding that 1 in 6 Americans is now Hispanic (my wife being one of them!). Birth-rates for Hispanics and blacks also seem to be considerably higher than for whites. Apart from the cultural ramifications, it's interesting to think about what how this shifting demographic might affect what people will be speaking in the future. Here in Miami, there's a lot of Spanish and a good deal of 'Spanglish' - a kind of English/Spanish hybrid. So, do you think if you managed to have a conversation with your great granchildren that you would actually be able to understand each other? :wacko:

Having spent over 20 years in Miami I can say I won't have a problem.
