I've always seen myself as an "Asian" language learner. I love Asia! I enjoyed learning Japanese in high school. I LOVE and still speak some Korean! I have learned a little bit of Chinese. But, tonight I'm pretty excited about the Spanish class I just started and I'm pretty sure it will not only be a great help to know some of the basics personally and professionally, but it might be more a part of me than I thought.....for example....
The Spanish alphabet (at least as explained in about an hour) is very similar to English. They have three extra letters - ch, ll, ñ. A few of the letters make a slightly different sound than we're used to in English. Most notable in my mind is h - hache. It's ALWAYS silent! For example
hola! Since 'h' is a significant part of me, I now feel more okay about my life as an introvert. :)
That's all.
Adiós.
