Good question..... my wife has told me.... and made fun of me for speaking Spanglish with an Italian accent????? I taught English in Quito, Ecuador from January of 2001 to 2002..... my wife is from there.
May I repeat here what I have just written else-where: ------------------- I was born to a German mother in 1946. I went to the Catholic Mass every Sunday. Partly because it was the custom of our village, partly because I really enjoyed it as a change from the daily work in the farm fields. Those Masses had some parts in Latin, but I did not mind. On the contrary, I found that Latin sounded beautiful and mysterious. Even as a child I liked languagues and beauty and mistery. The greater part of the "Latin Mass" was in German. The sermons were in German, of course. And I found those sermons so terribly terribly boring that I would have preferred them to be sung in beautiful Latin in the way of the Gregorian chants.
