Most bilingual people struggle to translate one thought from another, and this woman from North Carolina just proved that the struggle is real. Romina (@rominasvida) shared a story about a trip to the carnicería (butcher shop) one time. Despite being able to speak Spanish and English, she came out empty-handed—and bullied by her own mother over her Spanish-speaking abilities, too!
“I’m afraid to ask for meat at the carnicería,” Romina confessed on TikTok. Despite being Mexican, she’s not confident with her translation abilities at the carnicería. In a butcher’s shop, there’s a lot of vocabulary to be learned—there are meat types and parts that have dedicated terms.
