Mother remembers growing up hearing Italian at the family gatherings.
When I was listening to this passage, I noticed some unexpected H sounds. For instance, at the end of estamos in the 3rd line, I don’t hear an S, but rather an H sound. The same thing happens at the end of the 4th line: instead of tuSS abuelos, I hear tu Habuelos.
