Español!!!

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when I say ‘Spanish’?

Is it food? Or perhaps the music? Or even Pablo Picasso?

Well, let me tell you, these three plus so many reasons are there to compel you to learn Spanish and learn and explore more about this beautiful culture.

Vamos!

Widespread language

You must be aware of this but I’ll still mention this. Spanish happens to be the second most native spoken language in the world, after Mandarin Chinese. It also happens to be the fourth most spoken language after English, Mandarin Chinese, and Hindi.

The official language of over 20 countries, it is also the official language of many international organizations, including the United Nations. If you learn Spanish, then you will be able to travel almost anywhere in the world and find native speakers who can help you enhance and explore this beautiful language.

Easier to learn other languages

As you may know, Spanish is mostly derived from Latin as are most of the European languages including English and the other Romance languages namely Portuguese, French, Italian and Romanian. Learning Spanish can act as a base to learn all these other languages.

Once the base is set, all you have to do is work hard to get the rest of the structure ready. In no time, you may be able to speak all the Romance languages. Of course, it is a long shot but it can definitely be started by learning Spanish.

Travel

I know, I know. I have mentioned it above. The population and how it’s the second most native spoken language and fourth most spoken language in the world. But here’s the kicker.

Since it is the official language of 20 countries, alongside Spain, you will also explore the incredibly beautiful countries of Costa Rica, Peru, Colombia, Argentina, Mexico, Panama, Chile, Cuba, etc. Additionally, since Spanish is extremely similar to the Portuguese language, the beautiful countries of Brazil and Portugal can also be on your travel list, once you learn to speak Spanish fluently.

Entertainment

If you want to expand your consumption of entertainment then learning Spanish will be highly beneficial. Some of the best OTT content is produced in the Spanish language. Some fantastic series’ like “La Casa de Papel” popularly known as ‘Money heist’, “Elite” or ‘Valeria’ is originally in Spanish and it makes you understand the content better than what you do with the help of subtitles.

Culture

When people hear anything about Spanish culture, they are naturally thinking about bullfighting. But there is more to it than that. The festivities of Spain are, as the internet slang goes, ‘can’t miss’. The carnival, La Tomatina festival in Buñol, Festival de Los patios in Cordoba, and lots and lots and lots of other exciting festivals. Spain is known for its festivities and rich culture and learning Spanish will help you explore this country and its traditions.

Education

Education in Spain is compulsory from the ages 6 to 16 years. It is also free. The schools are supported by the national government and the country’s 17 other autonomous communities.
