What is Spanglish?

combination of english and spanish words, spoken with the non-english accent and often contains words that are of neither language, or words with elements of both languages. may be spoken by someone who doesnt speak spanish and/or english well, or someone who speaks both very well. often used intelligently by switching languages for emphasis. also spoken by "latinos" in the united states who share parts of U.S. culture and culture from a latin american country, and prefer speaking both languages instead of one or the other (also can interchange languages at will).

parquear (par-ke-ar:, in english "to park" a vehicle, in spanish "estacionar") is an example of a spanglish word.

Spanglish - what does it mean?

Not to be confused with the mock language; this usage of spanglish refers to a type of movie in which the plot is extremely complex or seems to have no plot at all. It dates back to the original movie, 'Spanglish', which many people had to watch seven times to understand what it was about.

What the hell? That's the third time I have watched this movie and I still don't get it! It's so freakin' spanglish!

Spanglish

A mix of the two languages Spanish and English

Often used in the Latino community, or used by white kids trying too look cool and exotic.
Sometimes this will be the end result of a half-assed public school spanish education.

One small detail I noticed with Spanglish is that speakers use cognates a lot.

Look I can speak Spanglish,

Hola, mi amigo, do you want to go to the restaurante to get tacos and burritos?

I need to go pee mucho rapido.

I just finished Spanish 1, now im taking Spanish 2.Watch me pick up some Latina girls. "Hola, chicas you are looking very muy caliente."
