Why Learn Spanish?
Spanish is one of the most commonly spoken languages in the world. About 400 million people
speak Spanish as their first language.
It is the official language in over 20 countries including Mexico and of course Spain.
Spanish
is one of the easiest languages for English speakers to learn, as many words are very similar due to their common Latin roots.
Just look at any Spanish literature
and you will instantly recognise many words and will probably even understand a few of the phrases without taking a single
lesson
More
importantly than this, the ability to speak a little Spanish
will certainly enhance your experiences in Spain, even if it is just to order a coffee, or a meal, or to ask for simple directions,
And the Spanish really do appreciate
the effort.
We
have included some simple Spanish
phrases to help you on your way. However if you would like to study Spanish then there are a number of courses that can help, and we have included links to
some of the best ones in this section
