My identity

                                                                     My identity

               
Quiet: this word describes me becose, i like silence and also i like more to hear than speak, this concept is daily present in my life, everywhere i go, only becose of silenc,i dont know why this concept started to be in my life,but the only thing i know is that i like silence, i am a man of few words.

 Patience: well, i chose this word becose this is one of my special qualitys, i can say this becose of my family....; i have 5 brothers 3 younger than and i had to start using my patience to "survive"in some way to my younger brothers, not trying to offend them but some times the ge really annoying.

Sports: sports are part of my life becose of my school, the only place that sports can be played with friends and start training different ones, the sports that i like the most are rugby and football, both official sports in my school.

Caring: i chose this word becose of my interest in helping other people, i guess that comefrom my family specially from my mother i always see her helping others, so i started to practice empathy, and i think this will affect my future in a positive way, becose i want to study medicine,i hope i can succes in my goal.

Inteligent: well, i dont like to presume, but i always think things before doing them, i like to be smart becose i like to analyze, write, read, and learn.

Joyfull: i always like to see the positive side of things, also i dont like to be angry,i like to be happy and who dosent like to be happy?, and my last argument is that im always laughing of most of the things.

1 .- No, im not agree with the note taker's statement becose everyone in the world are free to express how they want and that includes that you can speak the way you like, the note taker in my opinion its very rude, becose he's speaking to a woman and a man shoudnt talk like that to a woman, well in my opinion i dont judge people becose the way he or she speak and nobody should judge smeone by the way its speaks, and talking a different English doesn't determine your position in society.

2.- I think that the note taker's proposition its inpolite becose such a plan ignores her sense of identity and dignity becose she has the decision of be an educated woman or not as i said she is free to expess herself and teaching how to speak different cant transform you in somethin different.

Post watching activity

how did you feel when listening to Gloria's accent?
Well, i felt quite identificated with Gloria becose i have accent too, so it was quite funny to saw her speaking Spanglish becose  sometimes i speak just like her for example when ai forget a word, and when i get annoyed.

Is this variation of language identifying a particular community for good or bad?
This variation of language of identifying the latins in USA, wich is a common community in USA i could identify this becose she use a lot of Spanglish. Well, in my opinion i think shes not identifying her community for bad becose tv progam shows the funny side of spanglish and in my opinion shes the most funny character in the tv show.

 Is this an inferior variation of the english language?
This is an inferior variation becose nobody in the video understood her, in fact sometimes not even me could understand her.

Do yo usually  judge people accent's?
Well if i understand a accent i really dont care much of the accent, but if it is an accent that i cant understand i usually judge it.
