The Spanish language is the third most-spoken language in the world, after Chinese and English. It is the language spoken by the most people in the Western Hemisphere and is the second most-spoken language in the U.S.A. In fact, what’s the country with the fifth largest population of native Spanish speakers in the world? Why, it’s the U.S.A!

The best way to learn to speak Spanish is to take an interactive audio course. Good ones are available that you can buy and download from the Internet immediately. Once on your hard disk in mp3 format, you can offload copies to your iPod or other portable listening device. Or you could burn the lessons into CD’s and play them back on any CD player anywhere.

There are a number of interactive-audio courses available. The leader, Rocket Spanish, is reputed to be the best one of all.

So how to learn Spanish? The best way is conversationally. You learn some basic vocabulary, a few words. Then you practice using these in spoken conversation. You ask and answer questions. You communicate. Doing that impresses the words on your mind and lets you assimilate them as tools useful for communication. You learn by using the language, not by memorizing vocabulary and conjugating verbs. Think about it. How old were you when you first learned what the word “conjugation” meant? I’ll bet you could already speak pretty good, effective English then!
