Do you think it would go okay? My Spanish is okay. I think it’d be fun to practice Spanish and maybe meet some Dominican girls

I think you talk well in Spanish
Maybe you can try to go and if you have difficulties to talk in Spanish you can still talk to people in English
I don’t think they will reject you because you talk in English

Many Dominicans in my experience. Don’t speak English at all. They have a very tight-knit community here in the town I’m speaking of and all of their amenities are dominican-owned so they can live their lives without speaking English.
I do think that I would be able to get by though. I mean I’m getting better at understanding what’s being said to me. If I explain that my Spanish is poor, they may speak slower or use more simple words.
I had two drivers recently for Uber that were from the Dominican Republic and both of them and I spoke in Spanish the whole ride and it was so much fun and they were so cute! I would have asked them out but I feel like that’s a conflict of interest. It’s not fair to do that to someone who’s driving Uber.

Oh , I didn’t know they don’t know how to talk English
I thought it was a must to know how to talk English in US
Yes, if you explain you don’t talk fluently they will probably talk slowly to you

Yes, a good portion of the communities here that are from the islands and from South and Central America, stay in close-knit communities in the cities they are in. Learning English is not necessarily a must for them. That’s my experience on the East Coast.

At the same time I have a Puerto Rican neighbor and she doesn’t speak any Spanish. So it can go both ways
