With straight and simple logic, I wanted to learn Spanish as it invited me to enhance my skill.
Ok, so to begin with, Spanish is not the first foreign language that I learned. Hindi is my native, and English is, obviously, a worldwide accepted language that I learned not just in school, but also at home, where my grandfather always taught me new words and stories in English and motivated me for more such learning.
I began with French in school, wherein we had to take an exam for getting admission to the French class. So I eventually started learning French for 3 years, long back, while in school.
Since I opted for English literature as my subject in higher academics, my interest in languages, too, grew. Not just that learning new languages gives a better understanding and wider perspective, it is also beneficial as it adds to ones’ skills, making a better resume. So yes, it is making me stand unique in a crowd of common language speakers.
