Multiliguists of Lemmy - When speaking Language A and using a word from Language B how do you decide which pronunciation to use?
The best examples that come to mind are when ordering food. As examples:
• You speak English and Spanish and are ordering a burrito
\
• You speak Thai and English and are ordering Tom Yum
I imagine it could depend on numerous things:
\
• You primary language or ethnicity
\
• What sort of restaurant
\
• Who you’re dining with
\
• Who you’re ordering from
\
• and probably a lot more…
