I'm not racist but the spanish language irritates me

Anyone who starts a sentence with “I'm not racist but...” clearely has some racist undertones to it.

No nearly as bad as people from the South. God Southerners are hard to listen to, and they are just as arrogant.

I like the way people from Spain speak Spanish and southern south Americans, just not Mexican Spanish. It sounds like they're singing a rather monotone song.

Nothing racist about that (if anything more like ethnocentrism), just your opinion. Personally I don't notice any arrogant tone - unless maybe if you mean actual Spanish (from Spain). most europeans seem a bit arrogant to me.

anyone speakin french sounds like theyre chokin to death

Spanish is a beautiful language.

I get it. I've also experienced annoyance from Spanish accents. Also, some of my relatives are foreign, and I think their accents are kind of annoying.

Some British accents annoy me too, particularly when I can't understand what they're saying because they speak so poorly, and I don't like their slang.

You may believe you're not racist, but reacting negatively to a certain accent demonstrates prejudice against those who speak with the accent.

There used to be a continuity announcer on BBC Radio Four who had a faint Scottish accent. I found her enunciation very clear and the accent barely noticeable, but the BBC received lots of complaints from eejits who hated hearing a jock on their favourite station. That said nothing at all about her, and everything about the prejudices of a certain type of English person.

They could say the same thing about English speakers bro.

I mean, I'm Mexican, but I fucking hate how southerners speak. I was born here in the states, but yeah... I don't THINK that's racist. As long as you're not harassing anyone who does speak Spanish. I guess you just hate the frequency the language makes. Understandable. For example, I'm from the Bay, so hearing Southerners is so annoying for me because it just doesn't sound good in my ears. But I don't hate Southerners for that, so I hope you don't hate Spanish people for that.

Yes i live in florida so its common enough plus they go really fast

If the Spanish language irritates you, how do you feel when you hear languages that are completely different from English like Arabic, or Chinese or something. At least Spanish relatively easy to understand.

Maybe you should take a non-credit conversational Spanish class at your local community college? It will hopefully be fun, relatively easy, and informative. What have you got to lose except that annoying feeling of being irritated?

The Arabic language irritates me. Sounds like someone gargling with water then spitting it out and screaming “Allahu Akbar!”

puta

As someone who was born and raised in California (and not a part of any spanish-speaking culture), it can irritate me time to time as well. It is such a popular language overall, but I just never seem to have a connection to it though. The only connections I can make to these are hella bad memories lmao.

I don’t have very good memories with the language, heh.

Not relating at all.
The only time a language is irritating is when you don't understand it.
Or: the tone, volume, or accent throws you.
trumps arrogance irritates me more than a Spanish accent.
The British nasal speach, the whiney jew.
The black guy that talks like he has a mouth full of marbles.
The redneck, etc.
But that's me.

It has never been accused of been audibally pleasing. You are in the majority. There are so, so many worse though.

Someone's a trump ass kisser 😚

I like the way Italian sounds better than Spanish. Colombians sound better than most other Latin Americans to me.
