You is both formal and informal depending on context. ex: Hey! what's up with you? (in) Hello sir, how are you today? (f) Now I was born and raised in the U.S. but I my parents made it clear that I have to address adults with a title and never use their first name. This included superiors as well. When I got to college I was unsure of how to address my professors because they all prefered a first name basis which was just strange to me because the people I call by their first name only are either people who are younger than me or about the same age, friends, cousins and thats about it.

First of all, I love you guys. I´m a Mexican living in Canada for two years now, and every time you come up with one of these topics, which is often, feels like: ¨finally!!! someone understands me!¨. Feliz cumpleaños Joss (is it short for Josseline?)!!!! Tú contra Usted: Depende mucho de la familia y cómo cada uno de nuestros padres nos educaron. Por ejemplo yo use Usted con abuelos, tíos, tías y desconocidos de mayor edad que yo. Y uso Tú con primos, hermanos, papás, y amigos o desconocidos de mi edad o menores. Sin embargo, mientras más crecía y me sentía en más confianza con mis tíos y tías les fui tuteando de a poco, o en veces, hasta el punto en que un día le digo usted y otro tú a la misma tía! Bueno, saludos a los dos! tienen un grandioso KZfaqChannel!! P.S. I got a car at 15... and a half!... hahaha... and a huge Quinceañera party! :D P.S.2. It´s a lime!

Felicidades por adelantado Joss!! Para mí hablar de Tú y Usted depende mucho de la confianza y del respeto que se tenga con la persona, por ejemplo a mis papás les hablo de "tú" porque así me lo permitieron desde pequeña pero no significa que no los respete, al contrario, y a mi abuela y tíos les hablo de usted porque mantengo cierto límite con ellos y les respeto. Hay personas más grandes que yo a las que tuteo pero ellos me lo permitieron. Creo que siempre hay que dirigirse con respeto para no generar conflicto con eso jaja

I have fair/ light skin tone and I totally get the “are you really mexican??? 😱” question all the time when I’ m abroad, so I understand Janik’s point but people shouldn’t ask those questions tbh.

@janeznovak922 5 жыл бұрын

Well typical Mexican/latino has darker skin (mestizo)... so it's understandable. But it's also logical that they have also white skin, because some Spanish people didn't mix with Indians. Simple as that.

Growing up in the US I got asked/told this A LOT! And I get people's ignorance, Lord knows I have my own. But after a while of having to explain this to various people, it gets old. What really irritates me is those who passionately argue I can't possibly be Latino, as if they know my heritage better than I do. It's ok to be curious and ask questions, but we also need to be considerate of others. It's nobody elses duty to educate us, clarify our ignorance, or satisfy our curiosity.

I love you guys! & happppy birthday 🎂 Just to tell you that your not alone -I’m from Michoacán, Mexico/American - So “usted” is only used in certain regions of Mexico. I always refer to my parents & close older friends with “tu”. The only people I ever refer to as “usted” is people that I don’t know and my grandparents. It’s interesting to hear the different ways people speak in certain regions. Also, again HAPPPPPY BIRTHDAY 🍰🎉🎂☺️

Español: A mis familiares cercanos como mis padres, les hablo de tú, y hasta les digo por su nombre pero en el caso de desconocidos mayores o de profesores siempre les hablo de usted. Depende de la persona y como quiera que te dirijas hacia ella, porque incluso he tenido profesores que me dicen: "puedes hablarme de tu" y se siente tan raro. Igual me gusta mucho el idioma coreano, y también en ese idioma existen niveles (7). Está el informal, el formal neutro (estatus más alto o desconocidos), el formal alto (extrema formalidad, por ejemplo con tú jefe) y los honoríficos (que por su edad y estatus, demuestras un respeto muy elevado). Eliges que utilizar dependiendo de la relación que tengas con la persona. Y como me gusta, me parece demasiado jerarquizado, así que de alguna forma estoy feliz de que en México no exista algo tan extremo como en la sociedad coreana. English: To my closer familiars I used to speak them informal (tu) and sometimes I even call them by their names but in the case for strangers or professors I always speak to them in formal (usted). I think it depends on the person and how does he/she feel to be addressed to them, because I've had professors who prefer to be called by their name to feel closer to you and i'm not gonna lie, it feels really awkward due to my personal costumes. I also like the korean language, and it also has different speech levels of formality (7). But they can be englobed as three: higher levels (high status, strangers, very formal), middle level (ambiguous social situations but also formal) and lower level (close friends, relatives or children). Each one with their own unique set of verb endings which are used to indicate the level of formality of a situation. As you can see, you choose depending on the relation that you have with the person, status or age. And as I love the korean language, it's a relief that in Mexico we're more relaxed on that topic and it's not extremely as in korean society.

Love this! I'm from Jalisco and this is so relatable, especially the "are you sure you're mexican part". 😊 I've seen controversy over calling a grandparent abuelo or abuela instead of abuelito and abuelita. Tried to call my grandma abuela once and she was livid😳 I also think it's weird how we say tio and Tia, but in the American culture I see that many are called by their first names instead of Aunt or uncle.
