Though definitions vary, the literature on heritage speakers of Spanish identifies two primary attributes: a linguistic and cultural connection to the language. This article profiles four Anglo college students who grew up in bilingual or Spanish-dominant communities in the Southwest who self-identified as Spanish heritage speakers, citing linguistic and cultural connections developed at home and in their communities. It compares their experiences to attributes of Latin@ heritage speakers more commonly described in the literature and suggests the term "acquisition generation" to describe how new speakers develop and negotiate a heritage speaker identity.
