“But those laws haven’t stopped foreign-language speakers in Central Florida from keeping their native tongue.

As the population grows, more immigrants teeter between two worlds: They want to keep their own language and ties to their culture and homeland. They also want their children — some American born — to speak their mother tongue and keep their traditions alive for generations to come.

On the other hand, most immigrants want to blend into the English-speaking community.”*
