Thank you for sharing this-it's such an important and honest reflection. 💛
You're absolutely right: translation tools help, but they don't always capture meaning, culture, or context. Language barriers aren't just about Spanish vs. English-they're also about dialects, expressions, cultural norms, and experiences that vary by country and community.
What does get across, though, is respect, patience, and genuine effort to connect. Even when the words aren't perfect, relationships, trust, and warmth matter deeply-and those are universal.

All though we uses devices to translate some of the language it still don't get across. I just learn it don't matter because everybody don't speak spanish. There is different kind of language barrier. It depend on the country each Hispanic come from.
