@aurabogado I capitalize all languages/heritages. My Mother the English Teacher taught me "We capitalize ALL of those as a form of respect."
Should we capitalize the word "español" when we're writing in English?

@ErintheHealer that's awesome. But in Spanish, we hardly capitalize anything, including words like "español." -
@aurabogado Interesting difference in language. I wonder, if ur using that language's word, ought we follow those rules for the words? -
@aurabogado But when using English words, use Eng. Lang. rules? That seems even more respectful than just capitalizing *everything*, Mom! -
@ErintheHealer that's just it, though. English doesn't even have the letter ñ.... -
@aurabogado Good point. We also use anglicized versions of Japanese and Russian words, rather than their written language.

@aurabogado I italicize but don't capitalize. -
@tanyagolashboza I feel all kinds of ways about using italics for Spanish language words, despite its effectiveness.
