Read the following excerpt from Gary Soto's story "Like Mexicans."

My grandmother gave me bad advice and good advice when I was in my early teens. For the bad advice, she said that I should become a barber because they made good money and listened to the radio all day. "Honey, they don't work como burros," she would say every time I visited her. She made the sound of donkeys braying. "Like that, honey!" For the good advice, she said that I should marry a Mexican girl. "No Okies, hijo"-she would say - "Look, my son. He marry one and they fight every day about I don't know what and I don't know what."

    Language, because she uses many 'mexican' expressions such as 'Como Burros' meaning working very hard, as well as 'No Okies' same as the last thing she said showed her english not being super good. Either that or folklore
