It turns out that the number of people speak it, Spanish is the third largest in the world, second only to Chinese and English. If your activity is related to Spanish-speaking countries, the Spanish language, you should teach one. And if you just love to learn foreign languages to expand their horizons, then maybe it's worth after the English to learn Spanish? Spanish (Castilian it is sometimes called)? this Ibero-Romance language, referring to the Indo-European family, which appeared in medieval kingdom of Castile. Writing in it is based on the Latin alphabet. Spanish is the native for the 358 million people. And if you take into account the people, for which Spanish is the second language, the figure will increase to 430-450 million.
In addition to Spain, the main region of distribution of the Spanish language is Latin America. Spaniards speak about their own language Spanish when they want it to distinguish among other languages. Domestically, they say, the Castilian language, when referring to other languages spoken in Spain. In November 2004, in Argentina in Rosario was third International Congress on the problems of the Spanish language. Organizer of the congress made the Royal Academy of Spanish Cervantes Institute and the royal couple of Spain. Most of the speakers were Latin American writers.
At the congress noted that the Spanish language all the more disconnected to damage dialects. In addition, a globalizing world contributes to simplify the language and more people see it as a means of easy communication. Because of this, the language loses its artistic depth and variety. Argentina was not accidentally chosen to host the congress. In this country, differences in the classic Spanish language from dialect which is spoken by most people in this country, as well as in Uruguay is very noticeable. This dialect is called lunfardo (lunfardo), leading its emergence from the dialect of Spanish convicts, settling there for centuries. Then, in the 20 century by mass emigration of Italians to the country this dialect enriched with a mass of Italian words, matched by the morphology of the Spanish language. As noted with concern in Congress, people today have a Hispanic nation all less and less able to understand people of other Spanish-speaking nation, although seemingly formally both nations speak the same language. King Juan Carlos of Spain in his speech at the Third International Congress said. From add that if the process will continue to go in this direction, then after a while, along with the classic Spanish (Castilian) language will appear several other languages very remotely resembling Spanish. Good or bad? difficult to judge. On the one hand worsen communication between people, said earlier on ldnom language, on the other hand increase the linguistic diversity. At the Third International Congress dedicated to the problems Spanish noted and other hazards to the Spanish language. This danger is. That due to the same globalization and the Internet Spanish more and more clogged Anglicisms. This was interpreted uniquely? it is very, very bad. This loss of identity of language. But the language and it should not be overlooked, is the backbone on which keeps the nation's identity. There will be no language? will not be a nation. As noted by Congress, problems of Spanish is very similar to the problems of many other languages in the world, in particular littering Anglicisms. Here are antidotes to this Third International Congress has not developed.
