Spanish seems to be becoming more and more popular to learn these days.Do you know any Spanish?
I know very very little. It is is the second most spoken language after Mandarin Chinese.
Would be very useful then. I actually speak quite a bit of Mandarin Chinese. Do you speak any other languages?
No, I was never good at languages. 75% of the Spanish vocab is taken from Latin.
It's pretty amazing how much of the romantic languages stem from Latin. Really interesting.
Oh yeah, it is a really nice language. Ancient Greek has also given to Spanish vocabulary through Latin where it has had such a big impact.
Is that right? I don't know much about Greek. Seems like a complex language!
It is but a lot of words come from Greek. Spanish has roots in the Castile region of Spain and has millions of speakers around the world.
I really should learn more of the language. I'm actually traveling to Spain later this month. Really should start practicing my Spanish..
I could never pick up on it. Can't be too hard if so many people know it.
