Why do parents fuck up their children like this?

Same, I'm not fluent in either language. I have a bit of an accent and people here always ask me to repeat what I just said, while my native language is at middle school level. My ineptitude in both languages along with anxious behavior gives people irl (from here and my home country) the perception that I'm retarded.

sound like a mexican when i speak english but sound like a gringo when i speak spanish. it's over

>why do criminals only care about money
easy question, they're criminals.

wrong thread?

nope.

Same here. I would constantly use idioms and slang but people will always state my accent is not British desu

I can speak both languages fluently. You ITT must be retarded in some way.

>my mom never taught me korean
>I'm grow up m*nolingual

Does it matter in a non homogeneous society?
Like you can't even step outside without hearing some accent or seeing a people of a different race who obviously look, speak and behave differently

not OP but I don't want to be absorbed into the Babylonian borg. i want to know the language of my ancestors

Are you ok, Juan Lopez?

Scotian diaspora in 'Berta still have my cringe accent 15 years later
Used to repress it in high school because I got teased for it but it resurfaces and doesn't truly go away
Now people think I am just retarded

Isn’t it the same thing

My gf is Korean and came here when she was 10 and speaks both English and Korean in their native accents

I think it’s just the dumb brown races that do this

It turns into something of an advantage later if you're not ugly.

10 years is kind of late. my parents came to the US in their teens and still speak Spanish. I forgot all of mine because i was exposed to english at 6 years old

I think latin and hispanic mothers are really big on maintaining their heritage or whatever which includes screwing their kids by resisting assimilation.

depends when you start learning the language. There's a critical phase before puberty where accent acquisition is easy afterwards it's very hard and requires lots of dedicated work

the people on trailer park boys have a noticeably distinct accent
