In Jamila Lyiscott 3 ways to speak English she states " 'cause I speak three tongues. One for each home, school and friends." I don't think she necessarily speaks three languages, she's just stating that she has different ways of communicating in English depending on where she's at. I agree with her because I personally do it and I've had someone else tell me that when I speak to customers at my job my whole tone and demeanor change from the way that I usually speak with them. I tell them of course I have to the same way I speak you I can't necessarily speak to other because they'll just look at me and think that I don't know how to speak properly. I can also relate to Anzuldua because I am Hispanic and it's true when she says that people do judge you on the way you speak. At home when I speak with my parents, I speak Spanglish and my dad is always telling me how horrible my Spanish is. So I can relate to both in these ways.
