New York Latino English


New York Latino English is an unknown but fascinating variety of English. Here you can find out more about it:



 We decided to pick this variety because we were very concerned with the election of the new president in the USA. We wanted our students to watch the video and understand the origins of this fascinating variety and after having watched it, starting a debate about English and its different varieties but overall focusing in the USA current situation. We decided to do that because in that way they won't only be reflecting about English variety but also about what is happening now in USA.
