In November of every year, we bring you stories of “first Cuban Thanksgivings.” Mixed with the emotions of living in a land of freedom, we were introduced to “the turkey” – the culinary centerpiece of the holiday and all its accompaniments. Also, as a new Spanish-speaking arrival in North America, we were faced with a different language and what seemed, at the time, strange words and letter combinations like “th,” which required the speaker to gently thrust and manuver the toungue in a gymnastic feat. Coupled with a knack for dropping the last letter of a word, Thanksgiving became Sangibin.
Today, we are featuring Aileen Vega’s story, which will bring a smile to your face and probably some personal memories.

En noviembre de cada año, les traemos historias de "primeros Días de Acción de Gracias cubanos". Mezclado con las emociones de vivir en una tierra de libertad, nos presentaron "el pavo", la pieza central culinaria de la fiesta y todos sus acompañamientos.
Además, como recién llegados de habla hispana a América del Norte, nos enfrentamos a un idioma diferente y a lo que parecían, en ese momento, palabras extrañas y combinaciones de letras como "th", lo que requería que el hablante empujara suavemente y manipulara la lengua en una hazaña gimnástica. Junto con una habilidad especial para dejar caer la última letra de una palabra, el Thanksgiving se convirtió en Sangibin.
El epsiodio 94 presenat la historia de Aileen Vega, que les traera una sonrisa y probablemente algunos recuerdos.
