Language
I think that at home we mainly speak a mixture of informal English and Standard English, and in high school I learned some Spanish. I feel most attached to informal English because it is easiest for me to speak, but I'm not sure where this language comes from. I speak a little differently when I'm with im friends opposed to when I'm with my family. When I'm with my friends my language is less formal and we use words that can be considered slang. When I'm at school I speak Standard English, but sometimes it is difficult to think of proper words. I think informal English is recognized at school because when we are talking face to face, we don't necessarily use the same words as when we are writing, which is usually done in Standard English.
