I once had a co-worker whose granddaughter came to see her at work. They both spoke English and Spanish. They had been speaking English then the girl started getting antsy and my coworker switched to Spanish for a couple of minutes. Afterwards I said, “You were telling her she better sit down and behave or she was going to get a swat.” My co-worker said “I didn’t know you spoke Spanish.” I told her, “I don’t but I recognize that tone and expression in any language.”
Good story!
