      Don’t worry, your Spanish is perfect. But ain’t that cool to live in a place where people can speak two languages? As a latin American who has spoken English for most of my life (yet I still mess up sometimes), I can’t imagine only speaking one. Also, my daughter started learning ASL (just out of curiosity), so I’m helping her and learning a bit too, sice I think not enough people knows it. Sorry for the long comment, but communication is fucking important, specially good one.
