From what I understand Spanish spoken by latin Americans goes in Mach II, so then they move to the US, and learn English half, and with a heavy accent, but manage to speak it in the same Mach II as Spanish at home, for whatever reason, and I stay there like a clueless dumbo, with that monkey look alike face, like I have just fallen down from the moon and looking for my first banana.
So, I understand very well how that works.
