I still maintain that "Sì no fuera por patochada…" means "If it weren't for nonsense…" Spanglish is what I've been exposed to, since my second year of 1st year Spanish: (The teacher was a very pretty girl who left to get married and was replaced by a Marine veteran! In Massachusetts at that time I saw no reason to continue… ) I can count, give directions and commiserate. That's enough:
There seem to be no Spanish-speaking intellectuals hereabouts (I mean, in my locale — and that includes my ex-wife and our two children… :sigh: ).
