Apparently so.
Interesting-I had not heard that illegals from Mexico were going to Florida-it is rather a long trip just to go break the law...
My dad was stationed in Puerto Rico when I was a kid, and the dialect they speak there bore little resemblance to the one we speak here in Texas and Northern Mexico, and is the same one I heard spoken in Florida. I learned the Spanish dialect spoken here as a child at home as a second language, and the dialect I heard in Florida is spoken faster, and there are a number of differences in the words for food items, formal terms, etc.
