Summary: The web site written in Spanish gives an introduction of Spanglish and briefly talks about the criticism that this variety encounters by the “purists” of the Spanish language, who intend to preserve it and keep it away from influences of other languages. The webpage also gives some information about the history of Spanglish as well as stating that the variety is continuously practiced not only by people on hispanic neighborhoods in the United States but also on the Internet. Finally, it shows a dictionary with some entries of Spanglish and their translation into Spanish and English, followed by example sentences.
