New York Spanish, a New Dialect, Rises

Tagged: , , , , ,

Here is the CUNY Press Release

“When it comes to language, Hispanic immigrants are doing more than just picking up English as they spend time in New York City: They’re also learning new ways of speaking Spanish, a new study that was six years in the making shows.

The study, by a CUNY graduate school linguist, has uncovered a New York City-specific way of speaking Spanish that, in addition to English, has been influenced by dialects from Puerto Rico, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, and Ecuador.”*
