Latinos have transformed the city in the last half-century — and the Hispanic influence extends to English phrases that a study has identified as the "Miami Dialect."Growing up as a first-generation Cuban American in Miami, Ismael Llano never thought twice about the way he spoke.
It wasn't until he was in high school or college, Llano said,"where I started to realize ... we’re the ones who are doing something different down here with the language." has made national headlines — and confirmed what residents like Llano have long felt: There is a distinct “Miami Dialect.”The way Spanish and English have intertwined in Miami after the arrival of many Cubans half a century ago has gone beyond what some may call “Spanglish” and evolved into a new English-language dialect entirely, said Carter, a professor of linguistics and English at Florida International University.
“When you have a situation such as that which took place in Miami, where the immigrant group becomes the local majority, things can get passed down to first-language speakers of the language, namely the children of immigrants, and then their grandchildren,” Carter said.
