My phone call to a significant other was to my mom. It was interesting to notice little things i had never caught onto before. She has an accent since English was her second language. We spoke a lot about school and work and i realized those are our usual topics. I also realized she never used to get emotional, and with this call she was telling me that she missed me being home with her a lot. As we continued talking, i also realized that she bounced around speaking English and Spanish in the same sentences a lot. I also very oddly brought up  the topic buckets and pails and i realized she does not say either. Instead she says the Spanish translation of it. When i called her she began with “how are you? como estas mija?”. She doesn’t use hella at all and says soda with an accent. All of the slang she used when she was younger was in Spanish. That turned into  very cute and funny conversation. I then asked her to pronounce the listed words and she kept telling me that they were all the same words. I assumed this was because English was her second language. overall, i had a very good and interesting talk with my mom.
