Its's also a good thing that children in school start learning Spanish, there are some places where Spanish is the primary language here in the United States. Children's TV is also teaching kids Spanish in their programs



The United States boasts the world’s second-largest Spanish-speaking population, now that this country’s Hispanic population outnumbers the entire populace of Spain.

Only Mexico has more Spanish-speakers than the U.S., but even that is expected to change by 2050, when the United States will likely be the world’s largest Spanish-speaking country, according to a new report on the Spanish language by the Cervantes Institute in Spain.

The 77-page report dedicates one of seven chapters to U.S. Spanish language , tracking momentous growth in the scope and presence of Uncle Sam’s Hispanic population in recent decades.

“More than half of the growth of the U.S. population between 2000 and 2010 resulted from the growth of the Hispanic community,” the report said, citing numbers from the U.S. Census Bureau.

I took a couple of years of high school spanish, and it seemed like an easy enough language to learn. Less complicated than English, to be sure.

It might be a good common language, as it seems that A LOT of right-wingers have a tenuous grasp of the English Language, and it seems to stunt their ability to learn the simplest of concepts. :dunno:

I think everyone should be required to speak gibberish...
 
I grew up in an area where there were several languages spoken, including Spanish, Yiddish, Italian and Chinese. Nice time in my life, great food too!

Depends on how a person looks at it. It was a place where life did not have much value, a person was not expected to do much and those who did get out did well in life.

A "ghetto" is a state of mind. As far as I was concerned I had nothing to lose then and now I live like today is my last day on Earth.

Mentioning food does not detract from the OP

if you are not going to define "GTP" then don't bother to respond I do not have the time or inclination to deal with posters who are afraid to explain what they post.
