All humans probably have an emotional attachment to one or more languages or language varieties, most often one associated with childhood. Create a text in which you explore and define the meaning of some language or language variety—a regional, social, or ethnic variety of English, for example—for you. Your text can take the form of an essay, or you may wish to create a sketch more like Cisneros’s (though you needn’t write about anything so intimate as lovemaking!). In it, seek to help readers—both those who know that language variety and those who don’t—understand its meanings and significance for you.
