[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think they assume that, I think they prefer to speak Spanish if they think you know Spanish. [/quote] So most non-hispanics prefer to speak Spanish to me huh[/quote] Yes, why not. Chance to practice it without having to fly anywhere. They are showing off their Spanish. It's not about you. I practice Russian with anyone who I think may speak it based on their accent and/or look. Many people from former SU and from EE can speak some Russian. Americans practice their German with me at work without asking if I speak it. They assume I do based on where I work and/or how I look. I never know which language they are throwing at me. I speak several. I have only seen Spanish speakers get upset over someone trying to speak Spanish to them. I don't expect a Spanish speaker to know the amount of languages I expect from an Eastern European, but I do expect English. [/quote]
