Answer:

The answer is: <u>It's a way to show her ethnic background and the American culture around her. </u>

Explanation:

Cervantes has both; Mexican and Native American Ancestry. At an Early age, Cervantes' parents forbade the use of Spanish and any other language due to the prejudices about Spanish Speaking citizens living in America, so Cervantes grew up with this limiting. So, the use of both; English and Spanish vocabulary in her poems, is a way to show her disagreement with this decision back in time somehow, and her ethnic background and also the American culture around her.

ozzi
This sentence gives an overall negative connotation because you're using a derivative means of describing the woman and he jewelry along with saying that the amount she is wearing is "a lot" more than what you would expect. It conjures up an image of a street adult woman with gold jewelry and thug-like clothing. It would not be an appropriate way to describe your grandmother given the age gap in both vocabulary and the overall negative connotation of the sentence.
