Description
Today's Immersion Exercise comes at the suggestion of one of the viewers from my previous Livestream, @artandculture-z5t. The song "Despacito", by Luis Fonsi with Daddy Yankee, is a cultural phenomenon, which even made its way into the English speaking world with the remix including Justin Bieber!
Like always, we're going to break down the lyrics as we go through and discuss what we as English speakers can learn about the Spanish language and Hispanic culture.
