早期波多黎各人来到纽约等地后发现自己因为英语不好经常被当做二等公民对待，于是
对孩子进行“融入”教育，很多家庭以放弃西班牙语为代价来追求”正宗的英语“ （
很多华人也是如此）正如文章提到的，很多当时移民的心态是：”if you're speaking
English, you're better."

为什么不一开始就教他们西班牙语。
正如文中被采访的女孩一样 “ Irizarry is disappointed her parents didn't
enforce Spanish when she was young and could soak up the language with ease.
"
并且她希望，她的孩子能够很自信的面对那个问题 ”你能说西班牙语么？“
从这个故事里，华人是否也能从中得到一些启示呢... 阅读全帖 |
