Gracias (Thank You) to Spain for giving us Spanish!
Spanish is known to be one of the easiest languages to learn. This language is spoken in 21 countries by 437 million people, and this makes it the second most common language in the world when it comes to native speakers.

First of all, Spanish flaunts a most natural grammar. Add to that; the pronunciations are uncomplicated and straightforward. Most of the words are pronounced exactly how they are written, and this works to the advantage of the native English speakers. It contains only ten vowels and diphthong sounds, which beats English’s count of 20!
