  10. Tauron32 says:

    I’m Spanish, from Spain. And I can change in the picture every “Spanish” into “English” and still being the same graph.

    BTW, Spanish TV is incomprehensible even to us.

  11. Tourist on this planet says:

    This is true in every language I’ve tried to learn. Generally, TV is the worst way to learn anything, except maybe numbers, or things on “Sesame Street”.

  12. Dorian says:

    Es algo difícil, a mi me paso lo mismo cuando aprendí inglés. Intenten ver la tele Mexicana, ni siquiera yo puedo entender algo.

  13. Spanish Guy says:

    Well… exactly the same happens to me with english.

  14. silva says:

    well i’m brazilian and have no trouble with spanish in any level

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_intelligibility

    portuguese, spanish and galician share a strong mutual inteligibility

    if you really learn any of these languages you’ll be able to communicate with many people that can’t even read english

    • jaun says:

      jajajaa muy cierto, de hecho en ocaciones cuando busco algo en internet, y lo encuentro, empiezo a leer, y despues me doy cuenta que esta en portugues… jaja
      son muy parecidos

  15. Pants_Mcgee says:

    Lol, Spanish.

    Try taking Mandarin.

  16. Jay says:

    LOOOL I’m Spanish and sometimes it’s really hard for us to understand something coz most of time they’re shouting XD

  17. thestashattacked says:

    Wow, prejudice much? Considering the fact that more people speak Spanish in that part of the world, ever consider that maybe they have the majority and we should learn their dialect?

    Besides, you learn a language based on the closest country that speaks that language. I would assume, since you say you’re from Spain, that you learned the British version of English. I would be extremely stupid to say that you didn’t learn “real” English.

    Grow up and get a life.

    • meep says:

      actually that’s wrong, most europeans learn american english as tv show’s, films and most books are printed in american english for the european market. Quite often i get annoyed when french people insist i’m spelling words wrong because i put a U in colour and spell centre with the r before e.

      People often learn what they need to and not what’s appropriate in order to fit in. I’d rather people from europe learn british english but when dealing with us they make theirselves understood to us but understand the american things they experience more often.

      • thestashattacked says:

        Oh. Didn’t know that. I had a Swedish friend who said that all Europeans learned British English, but I guess that’s not always true.

        Well, thanks for informing me!

  18. the cat says:

    True of Japanese as well! :p

  19. Jack says:

    Donde esta la biblioteca, Pedro?

  20. nerdly_dood says:

    I took five years of spanish through middle and high school, and THIS is EXACTLY why i gave up for my senior year and went for Latin.

  21. right says:

    Spanish isn’t so difficult. Try that with Japanese. :)

  22. Phat says:

    One of the first tv shows I saw in Spain was called Pasapalabra. Nothing before or since has done more to shatter my confidence that I will ever be a competent Spanish speaker. I legitimately did not know people could physically phonate that phast.
