Yeah then they would claim it was made by latin alphabet people
It's just a thinly veiled try to appropriate our Spanish language
For those who aren't directly from Spain, the Spanish language is one of colonialism so I really don't care if we want to re-adapt it which most lands that were colonized by the Spanish already do.
Yeah you can't actually tell a whole population how to talk
Contrary to what you guys think, you don't own us
Huh? No one is telling a whole population how to talk. And I don't even know where your last comment is coming from.
I'm Mexican, and think the argument is silly. Whatever someone prefers to be referred to is how I will refer to them.
The spanish language isn't the heritage of the Central and Southern American people. That was mostly stolen from us by the Spanish.
I don't see most of latam talking in quechua or in warao. Do you want to force them as well to talk in those?
No one is forcing anyone to speak a certain way. Why are you so hung up on that?
