Oh okay. I wrote this post right when I got off the phone with my mom who was getting mad. She started out speaking English then all of a sudden BAM, speaking really quickly in our native language.

What is your native language? (Mine's Maltese, from the lovely island nation of Malta in the Medditeranian)

Tagalog. I don't speak it but I understand it. When I do speak it though, I have an accent and I get made fun of.

That sort of reminds me of a friend of mine who's Cuban. When we were younger these older kids would make fun of her for "talking like a Communist" because of her accent. They don't do that anymore though, since they got in huge trouble for it.

That's sad that they said those things. When I get made fun of, it's only for fun and it's between friends so I don't take it too seriously.

Andek ha2, I usually speak to my parents in my native tongue, but I'll only speak to my siblings in it if I'm arguing with them.

The problem is in my house, my dad speaks Thai and English, my mom speaks English, my brother speaks English, Italian, German, and French, and I speak English and Spanish so we get pissed and start speaking another language and my mom tells us to start speaking English again.
