Should English Speaking Americans Learn to Speak Spanish As a Second Language?
Learning Spanish as a second language is an important consideration within the rapidly evolving 21st century.

As of 2006, there are over 28 million native Spanish speaking people living in the United States. Spanish is quickly becoming the second most popular language spoken in the U.S. and the fourth most common language spoken on the planet. So is learning to speak Spanish of any importance? Well, it depends. If you are a person that is resistant to change and do not desire to be competitive in the 21st century, then learning Spanish will not be on your priority list.
