sum
of
money
on
the
accent
lessons
to
learn
proper
accent
at
the
start
of
her
career
in
the
film
industry.
The
Modern
Family
star
says
that
she
had
wasted
a
lot
of
money
in
order
to
change
her
speech
delivery
and
accent.
"I
spent
so
much
money
when
I
decided
I
was
going
to
act.
I'm
like,
'I'm
moving
to
Los
Angeles,
I'm
gonna
hire
the
best
speech
coach,
I
can't
understand
why
Salma
Hayek
and
Penelope
Cruz
can't
learn
how
to
speak
perfectly,
I'm
gonna
do
it'," said
Vergara.
The
44-year-old
star
says
that
her
son
Manolo,
even
gets
frustrated
sometimes
with
her
wrong
pronouncing
of
words.
"He
would
run
lines
with
me...
And
he'd
say,
'Mum,
I
just
corrected
you,
like,
two
seconds
ago
and
you
said
the
word
again
wrong'," Vergara
added.
Vergara,
who
had
a
son
at
a
very
young
age
with
film-maker
husband
Joe
Manganiello,
said
that
she
is
proud
to
have
her
a
son
at
such
an
early
age.
"I
think
it
helps
when
he
grows
up
and
you
are
like
friends,
as
well
as
mother
and
son.
It's
fantastic
to
have
your
kids
young,
because
you
have
so
much
energy." Said
tThe
actress
said.
"I
think
my
family's
really
funny.
Colombian
people
need
that
because
we
come
from
times
that
were
tough,
and
sometimes
the
only
way
to
survive
that
was
to
make
fun
of
ourselves
and
those
situations,"
she
added
further.
