SPANGLISH

n 1. a language which is a dialectical synthesis of the English and Spanish languages. Primarily spoken in the southwestern United States, and in the gulf and border states between the USA and Mexico. The application of this dialect is flexible and situational, as a "Spanglish" word or phrase does not exist or cannot be said completely in one language or the other.
