There is hardly an area anywhere close to Houston any more where you can go and not hear several people speaking Spanish. Tired of it.
I’ve spoken Spanish as a second language from early childhood-like many/most SW Texans, I learned it at home. We converse in Spanish sometimes at work just to stay proficient-just because we can-so obviously, I have no problem with that as long as you also speak English. But I do not like people who use another language for exclusion or snob value-those of French ancestry seem to excel at it, no matter where they are.
I really think it is a good thing to speak a second language-I read that in times past, it marked a person as being well educated. It is still required to work for many multinational companies.
