The Data Therapistבת4.5 רוצה שאראה לה את האספרגוס בגינה.
אני: *זוֹמר אספרגוס פרי גני*
מי רוֹצֶה אספרגוס?
בת4.5: לא אני! אני רוֹצֶה to play!

אני: רחצת ידיים אחרי הארוחה?
בת4.5: הולכת לרחוץ ידיים, חוזרת ומכריזה: washתי!
(סיפור שראוי במיוחד לפורים, ההנהלה מתנצלת על האיחור הקל)

Aleksandra SamuļenkovaIf I need to write a text in language A, the most efficient way for me is to initially write it in a terrible mix of languages A, B, and C, with a splash of languages D and E.
A word or expression I need may not pop up in the right language immediately, and if I start fishing for it in the deeper parts of my brain, I'll likely lose my train of thought.
Guess how this post was written!

AmazeI watched a video of a college recruiter who grew up in El Paso, who was showing group pictures of the many organizations she belonged to. She pronounced El Paso as El Pay-so. There was a nuance of deliberate aggression in her pronunciation and I thought to myself, she grew up there, how could she not know how to pronounce it? Sure enough, I went back and looked at her group pictures, each with about 30+ people. Not a single brown person. #MicroAgression or #codeswitching ? 🤔

I Code-Switch To Survive, But It’s Exhausting
Many Black women, including myself, are forced to play a role, constantly adapting to the expectations of a society that wasn't built for us. Code-switching isn't a choice we make lightly. Whether in the workplace, at school, or among friends, it's a strategy to navigate societal norms that place us on a constant tightrope of acceptability.
