So I have a question for all the incredibly smart people on this page

I am a first generation American, with my parents immigrating to the united states. I will share my age to put this in perspective - I am 46 my brothers in their 50's.
My oldest brothers first language was Spanish - he stopped speaking very young Kindergarten or so because the schools told my parents it was best for them to have us only speak English (I know - there are so many things to say about this)
Now in our house, my parents pretty on the regular spoke Spanish to us and it wasn't until I went away to college that I actually learned the English word for some common household object.
I took Spanish in highschool and hated it - not for the language but because I always got in arguments about the language with my parents - we learned Castilian Spanish and my heritage is Latin American and well I was a teenager. Bless my Mom's soul her biggest regret when she died was listening to the stupid people who told her to have us speak English
