No not particularly. Doesn't happen generally as I don't look Latino.
I know some people who get pissed about it. I worked with a guy whose father was from Spain so he had Spanish surname, and his mother was Iranian and took him back there as a baby and he didn't return until after college, so he had a heavy accent, plus he was kind of dark due to the Iranian part. People would always try to speak Spanish to him, of which he didn't understand a word.
Another young guy I talked to got pissed that when he went to apply for jobs they would speak Spanish to him at first. He spoke it, but he didn't like them assuming that; he said his grandfather was born in Santa Barbara and he felt 100% American.

I prefer English, my native language, but if the person is more comfortable speaking Spanish, I know enough Spanish to get by. It's more important that they are comfortable speaking than my preference.
It's okay. Why should I like it? I don't speak it fluently, but I can understand bits and pieces. I have an elementary or grade school understanding of it. I am a Filipina, not a Mexican! ... So I speak English and Tagalog mainly. However, sadly, it's not a popular as Español.
A lot of Mexicans or Spanish speaking people are nice though, I'll give you that. At least from my personal experience.
Si, me gusta Espanol.
I also know just about 15-20 words though 🤣
I am better at Italian there I know 15-20 sentences.

No, not really. I know too many who don't even know English and it kind of gets on my nerves. Many of them have been in this country a long time and they never learn the language of the country they live in. That offends me to a degree.
If I up and moved to Italy and was going to live there, learning Italian would be one of my top priorities. If I moved to Japan and was going to live in that country I'd learn Japanese straight away.
I answer in German I am tired of people here in this country for twenty years and do not even try to speak English. I have even been asked why I do not learn how speak Spanish If there is a translator there, I have the translator. tell them this is America and I speak English the language spoken here.. If I travel to another country I try to learn some basics of the language
Oh yeah, I don't mind it at all. I just won't understand a word of what they're saying. 😅
Shit at this point, i like to hear Spanish, russian, portuguese, etc. It just depends on the person speaking it and their tone of voice
Not particularly. I mean I like Espanol, but I was around it so much, it really didn't mean anything when spoken to me.. But I did like when I was called Gaupo, precioso, y hermoso..
Quiero decir que no lo odio, pero sé que tu culo sí 💀
I like when certain people speak Spanish to me 😏
Go to one of those West American countries then. I heard they were cheap.
No because that would be weird outside of Spain.
It's no difference, I speak both so it's not a big deal when I hear and understand them talking cause it just sounds normal
No because i can't understand a word of what they are saying
No. That’s Spanish for no.
Actually, I don’t really care. As long as we can understand each other.
Yes. I've been learning it for years. Trying to speak Spanish all the time. I'd would love to meet a latina that's perfect for me. Then I'd learn a lot faster.
Spanish is very catchy nice to hear to language so yes
I know Que Pasa and Hasta La Vista. That's about it.
If it's an older person, I don't mind because most older people here don't speak English.
But if it's a younger person, I keep speaking to them in English even if they speak Spanish to me. 🙄
If it is a cute Latina lady, then yes I do like it!
Doesn't do anything for me at all.
yeah... but one person refuses!
