I am not hispanic, but I have noticed that folk act as if learning Spanish is not important. Often times when questions are asked about what languages would you prefer to learn, Spanish seldom is mentioned. When I tell others that I would love to become bilingual in Spanish, I get a nonchalant nod. If I had said French or German, the conversation would have gone on for infinity.
I live in El Paso, so you would think someone would say that I am doing a great thing. Do we see it as the dirty language? Please tell me, so I will know. IT IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR ME TO HEAR FROM BLACKS, WHITES, AND OTHERS. I assume that hispnics support me in my endeavor.
