10 Reasons To Learn Spanish

1. Planning a trip to a Spanish speaking country.There is certainly no
shortage of exotic and fun places to travel to, where Spanish is a
popular language. Mexico, Spain, Cuba, Panama, and Argentina are just
a few. Just imagine how much more enjoyable a vacation in any of these
countries would be if you could converse with the locals in their
native tongue. Possibly even discover some secrets not revealed in the
generic travel brochures.
2. Falling in love with someone who speaks Spanish.They say you can't
pick your family, but you can pick your friends . . . and lovers.
Maybe that cute Spanish speaking guy or girl you ride next to on the
bus every day, would really be impressed, if you were able to use a
introductory line with a few Spanish words. Careful with the
translations here though. First impressions are important.
3. Career advancement in a job that favors bilingualism.Perhaps your
company has some great opportunities, but only for bilingual speaking
employees. Or maybe you just like a transfer to another corporate
office, that happens to be in South America for a while. I'm sure
speaking Spanish would a great advantage there....

How do you speak "bilingual?" I speak English and Spanish and a bit of some
other langauges, but never heard of "bilingual" and don't know where to go
to learn to speak it.

Thank you for sharing the ten reasons to learn spanish. I also encourage people to learn spanish. It is the official language of many Latin American countries, and there more than 43 countries that have significant native Spanish speaking populations. In the United States, which has a large Hispanic population, it is the 2nd most spoken language, after English. All of this makes it highly desirable for us to learn Spanish by opting for a conversational Spanish course.For more details you can visit lejoslearning.com
