Why study Spanish?

Spanish is the second most spoken language in the U.S. I am taking this course because I have old reatives who do not speak ony english at all. I believe that this course will help me to communicate with them at least a little. Also, some day I hope to visit Mexico, and hopefully have a conversation with someone. I think Spanish is a beautiful language , and I hope to some day speak it fluiently. I think every person that can should learn Spanish B
