    Offtopic but, regarding the title:

    Do latinos in the US talk like that? In english with an spanish noun every once in a while? I've always wondered that, is it genuine or is it showrunners saying "yep, this character is hispanic"?

      To me it's "person pretending to pass as native spanish speaker but failing"

      I've only heard gusanos talk like that, it's annoying. I've heard Latinos say a word in spanish if they can't figure it out in english and only among other bilinguals.
