Where can I learn spanish for business and personal situations?
I want to learn spanish because my boyfriend is Columbian, and also because I would like to be able to do business with spanish speaking people. Where/how is the fastest way to do this? I’m really good at learning languages. I Aced Spanish in Highschool, but I don’t remember that much. I practice with my boyfriend, and try to learn, but it’s easier in a school environment with a textbook and a teacher.

Why are alot of Americans worried, look down upon, or disgusted with learning other languages or speaking them?
Now before you freak out and say I am generalizing, I know I am. There are certain americans who do learn,speak other languages, but for the most part they don’t.
I am a white American, and I notice other Americans, specifically WHITE americans look down upon or think its weird if a white American speaks another language.
For example, I can speak spanish, and alot of my friends ask me what, you are mexican now? or why do you speak spanish? or say rude things. they will put me down or think its weird.
SPECIFIC EXAMPLE: This white American guy I was dating asks me what are you all Mexican now? when i hadn’t seen him in two years and he knew i had learned spanish because he saw lots of people speaking to me in spanish on my myspace.
about 2 weeks later we went together to a latin fried chicken fast food place, Pollo Campero, and the drive through worker started speaking in spanish, so i orded in spanish, and i became really embarassed because the guy i was with make his eyes so big like this O_O and like look at me like i was weird and rolled his eyes and laughed.
what is the big deal? i have deal with this from many other people too.
ATL, you look black, and by reading your post i know your american. i think its only americans that think as ignorant and close minded as you.
too bad i would get a better job than you for knowing a second language. ha
in many other countries alot of kids learn 2 languages.
also @ ATL, yes I guess I am trying to be different. I am trying to educate myself, unlike people like you. And guess what, I am different. And you never will be.

Learning to speak Spanish?
I’m really bad when it comes to learning different languages. I really want to learn Spanish but I don’t know what programs to listen to or books to read. I don’t care how much it cost or how long it takes but I just need a easy way to learn spanish. I want to be able to remember it and know exactly what to say and what a person has said if they are speaking Spanish. If you know ANY programs like audio programs or anything that would be helpful. Also books or even websites. Like I said I don’t care if I have to pay.
