Modern family 

The many mispronunciations of Gloria
(Sofia Vergara)





How did you feel when listening to Gloria’s accent?


I felt that she was a woman that has a lot of problems to communicate with others. She comes from a spanish speaking country ,so she mixes this new language (English) and her colombian spanish into a spanglish .

Is this variation of language identifying a particular community for good or bad ?


This variation of language represents people coming from other countries that move into the United States and identifies them in a good and in a bad way , because it show that they still have their accent, but it also shows that its a lot harder for them to communicate.

Is this an inferior variation of the English language?


I think so because its a lot harder to communicate with others ,but it also has a lot of words that english doesn't have.

Do you usually judge people’s accents?


No because its their way to talk and everybody has their own way ,so why judge them and if you don't understand you can always ask them to repeat what they said.
