HI EVERYBODY!
This is the first chapter of our adventure through the Spanish-study. At first, we should start by the Spanish history. The Spanish language comes form the Latino, the accient language which was spoken at the Rome Empire. Through the centuries, that language changed step by step until our days. That's the reason why Spanish has got common words and gramatic with other languages like French or Italian, which come too from the Latino.
Spanish is one of the most sponken languages on the world, not just in Spain. Spanish is spoken in South America too, from Mexico to Argentina (except Brazil). That's the reason why to know this language is so important.
But like British and American English, there are lot of differences between Spanish (from Spain) dialect and the dialects from South America. In fact, in Spain, the dialect from the south (from Andalucia), sounds different from the centre and north dialect. Furthermore, in Spain we've got three languages more, Catalan (from Catalonia), Galician (from Galice) and Euskera (from Basque Country) which are spoken just in those regions. This is a summary of the actual situation of the Spanish.
But now, it's time to start, and our first step is, in my opinion the most important step. Read Spanish! You should now that have a perfect pronunciation isn't the most important thing. There are lot of dialects with their special pronunciation so, which is the best? Well, all of them are right, they are acepted. But here, we're going to learn the standard Spanish, but if you're a beginner, take it slowly, it's the best way to improve step by step. Let's start!
