Ditto here. Life is not perfect, but as long as we are here on this planet, mine is with him (he should graduate to sainthood after death simply by the tolerance he's shown in his years with me!)
You're just great!

Since when is Bloomerg banned here?

My take.
I wouldn't buy into that concept. True, different languages aren't bound by borders, and many adjacent countries speak the same, or in in similar dialects. If the teacher's theory is correct, we can then replace the term Latinos with Arabinos, or Latinas with Arabinas, of which I've never heard.
Spanish was derived from Latin. Italian and Spanish are close enough when spoken, people conversing can understand each other. Maybe not pure Italiano, or Castilian, but nevertheless close enough to communicate. I'm sure some small amount of Arabic and Latin words and terms can be found in most Eastern, Western European, and Middle Eastern countries. There's just been to many wars and occupations through the centuries to not have some cross language affects.
