I knew spanish as a child, growing up in Austin, TX, and thought I forgot most of it until I took it in high school in Wisconsin. I did remember more than I thought and much of it comes naturally as long as I’m not thinking too hard about it. I speak best after a few cervezas.
Knowing/Learning Spanish has helped me in many ways including understanding English better – the roots of many words are similar and if I don’t know the english word, I can sometimes glean the meaning from knowing a similar spanish word. It has also helped me get to know more people than I would have otherwise known and has broadened my view of the world.
