Tu Habla Espanol?



My wife and I bought the first level of the Rosetta Stone program to begin to learn Spanish. We both already know some and picked up quite a bit when we were in Peru last year but want to be proficient enough to carry conversations. Just for fun I thought I would give you 10 reasons why you too should learn Spanish. 

1. Spanish is the third most spoken language in the world and becoming more popular than English.

2. You can travel to Mexico and all of South America and communicate with just about everyone.

3. It would be cool to be able to speak another language. 

4. It's very valuable for mission trips.

5. You can impress your friends next time you go to a Mexican restaurant. 

6. You know someone that speaks it or will encounter someone that does.

7. It expands your career choices and makes you stand out above the competition. 

8. You could watch Nacho Libre without subtitles. 

9. You can also communicate to people who speak Italian because the languages are a lot alike. You'd be surprised. 

10. When you get upset you can just go off in Spanish so no one can understand what you are saying. Kinda like my mother did in Korean when she would get mad.  Lol
