Also 'The Morales family wouldn't know a lot about being lgbt' is just antiblackness LMFAO Jefferson,Rio and Aaron are grown ass people at LEAST in their mid-30s and Miles was extremely mlm-coded in the comics(the nigga deadass had a Moonlight 2016 poster in addition to all the gay asf male friendships)and Itsv him is VERY easy to read as transmasc and i've met tons of black transfems who say she's a trans girl egg with it and Atsv in mind so if you think Jeffrio and Uncle Aaron are anything less than the perfect allies or even queer themselfves,then please tell me why you think Peter B and MJ aren't homophobic with evidence and why you think Miles would be any less knowledgable on being trans than Gwen and especially why you think Hobie would be a sleazy douchebag booktok boyfriend who makes Miles uncomfortable on purpose for the bit when in canon he's literally Punk Prince Charming as you babygirlify The Spot.Go ahead

dear non-spanish speakers writing spiderverse fanfiction (or anything with spanglish),
in spanglish you don’t switch by word, you switch by phrase.
it’s not:
“[first part of the sentence in english], [second part of the sentence in english], mi amor.”
“[full english sentence], querida.”
it’s:
“[first part of the sentence in english], [segunda parte de la frase en español], mi amor.”
-
also miles is boricua, miguel is mexican. they have two different accents and use different vocabulary for certain words.
also miles is “nyourican” - a puerto rican native to new york - while his mom is directly from the island, so there are differences there, too, because his spanish is more influence by new york english. 
here’s some good references that aren’t google translate (which usually pulls from spain, a country that speaks vastly differently from latin america)
SpanishDict
WordReference
here have some random videos on different slang/spanish accents:
Puerto Rico
Mexico (1) (2)
-
in spanish most words are gendered, so most feminine words end in a and masculine/gender neutral words end in o. adding ito/ita makes something cuter, smaller and more affectionate.
spanish nicknames that aren’t “mi amor”
“querido/a” - darling
“cariño” - dear (always masculine regardless, of who its being said to)
“mi princesa/príncipe” - my prince/princess
“mi rey/reina” - my king/queen
“papí/mamí” - can be used in any way; romantic, sexual, familial for one’s parent or child, or just platonically
“tesoro” - treasure
also spanish is a language that uses adjectives as terms of affection both cute ones and ones that might sound insensitive in english
gordo (fat), flaco (skinny), negro (black), blanco (white), linda (pretty), bella (beautiful), morena (brown skin), etc.
and like most languages that are not english, spanish has multiple ways of saying i love you.
“te amo” - romantic
“te quiero” - familial, platonic (although there’s nothing wrong with using it romantically)
see also:
te adoro - i adore you
te deseo - i want you
te necesito - i need you
 and, of course, they can vary regionally too.
please use this because i have read a lot of really well written things that take me out of it because the use of spanglish is terrible. don’t just go on your presumptions that spanish/spanglish works in the same way that english does.
buena suerte, gringos.

No offense but nonblacks who make gay jokes about Punkflower are annoying as shit.'Hobie is Miles' bi awakening and he's in TOTAL denial,he can't be g-gay😳!He's just a normal straight teenage boy afterall but little does he know-'Y'all think Uncle Aaron wasn't having situationship with guys nonstop when Miles was growing up?What brand gaydar y'all got,mans screams bisexual in every direction and i bet Rio had girlfriends in college she told Miles about since Jefferson has bi wife energy mentality.Hobie babies Miles because he's in love in her and wants her to feel safe and her age.You all baby Miles because you wanna think of her as the same as white boys.You are not the same
