Information
has glosseng: Mock Spanish is a term popularized by Jane H. Hill of the University of Arizona to describe a variety of usages common in some otherwise monolingual Anglo-American circles. Hill argues that the incorporation of pseudo-Spanish terms like "hasty banana" (for hasta maƱana), "buenos nachos" (for buenas noches), "el cheapo", "no problemo", "hasta la bye-bye", and other humorous uses constitute a type of covert racism.
