Endangered Spanish Dialect Disappearing in New Mexico

New Mexico is home to a unique form of Spanish that has been spoken for over 400 years and exists nowhere else on earth. The dialect, an offshoot of the Spanish of northern Mexico, has been kept alive through poetry, song, and everyday exchanges in Hispanic enclaves scattered throughout the region. However, the dialect is at risk of dying out as rural communities face economic, cultural, and climate challenges. Efforts are being made to preserve the dialect through oral histories, workbooks, and heritage camps, but some linguists are not optimistic about its chances of survival in its recognizable form.

"Resident Evil 4 remake updates and cuts content for improved gameplay experience"

The Resident Evil 4 remake features expanded and improved Spanish language dialogue, but the uneven use of captions means that non-Spanish speaking players may miss out on the full experience. While the game showcases interesting voice lines, proper grammar, and literary references, captions do not always provide translations for new dialogue or lines that have been rerecorded from the original. The game's commitment to Spanish sets an interesting prospect for native speakers, but it falls into the same problem of language barriers that Spanish speakers often find in video games.
