I can’t decide if the conservative side of me is more pissed off or the Grammar Nazi in me. Are we not doing singular vs. plural now? What about Spanish taught here in the U.S.? We ain’t that far behind Canada. Is one girl “ella” or “ellas” or “ellos”? Even adjectives in Spanish are masculine or feminine. So I’m curious how Spanish is being taught in American public schools. What a damn shite show.

Well, this episode of Clown World is brought to you by Canada. Which probably doesn't bother much with Spanish and has too small a Hispanic population to push back.

The Clown World colonization of Spanish would likely make the third person plural pronoun "ellxs".
