1. Communicate with over 420 million native speakers worldwide.
The Spanish language is the most widely
spoken Romance language, both in terms of numbers of speaker and the Number of
Countries in which it is the Dominant language. Spanish is spoken by 450
Million Native speakers –add people that speak Spanish as a second language and
that figure grows to 550 Million speakers world-wide. This last statistic makes
Spanish the second and most spoken language in the world, ranking higher than
both Hindi and English. Spanish is also the world third most used language in
the media in its various formatting: radio, television, paper and internet.
2. Learning Spanish will help your career.
With such a large Latino population in the
U.S and booming Latin Economics outside the U.S Employers are desperate for the
people who speaks Spanish. There is a huge Demand in the U.S for Spanish
speakers in nursing, Construction, Management, and media among many other
positions.
If you know a second language, you can be
hired easily. If you have proven yourself to be a capable employee with just
the right job skills and you prove yourself to be a capable employee with just
the right job skills and you speak a foreign language such as Spanish, you are
much more likely to land that job of your dreams than if you monolingual. In
fact, many jobs today require a minimum of basic proficiency in another
language.
Internationally, people who speak Spanish
often have opportunities to work in trade or business fields. Other options
include diplomacy, interpretations, and security applications, which all
require a sensitivity and proficiency of another language. And did you know
that bilingual employees often receive a larger salary than their non-Spanish
Speaking counterparts? If the chance to show of your skills and be more
competitive on the job market doesn’t interest you in studying Spanish, perhaps
the extra cash will.
3. Learn Spanish to prepare for study abroad opportunities.
Many high schools, colleges, and
universities offer study abroad opportunities. Many different types of programs
are available to choose from and they vary in time from as little as a week of
study to one semester, or even a whole year. Often, as little as one semester
or one year of prior language study is all that is all needed, to qualify to
participate in an exchange program.
Constant exposure of the key to true
language and culture of the city in which city you study is believed to be the
key of true language mastery and helps pave the way to literacy and native
speaker like fluency. Students who have studied foreign languages score better
on entrance exams.
4. Better travel experiences.
You will enjoy your travels in countries
where Spanish is spoken more when you can speak the languages.
5. Knowing how to speak Spanish will enable you to
help others.
If you are the type of person who likes to
help others, learning to speak Spanish will put you in a position where you can
help both Spanish speakers, who don’t speak English and English speakers who
don’t speak Spanish.
