I don't dumb it down for Blacks or Hispanics, but now that I think about it - I definitely dumb it down when I get Chinese food.
Which is kinda funny, because they're all smart (one more generalization and I get an ice cream cone).
I honestly don't, consciously or subconsciously, see them as beneath me, or unintelligent - they probably know my language better than I do.
But for some reason - I go full, adjective-noun only, caveman/baby talk.
Gonna try to remember not to do that next time...
