Learning a new language is always a challenge but maybe especially at my age! So Spanish is something I always wished I understood better. What better time to try than now......after all I’m retired and have so much time to fill at home with this pandemic. Having fun with it so far !
I have the same aspiration, esp. after visiting Costa Rica & Mexico. I even have the same Great Courses course that you have pictured, but have not taken it yet. Good luck. If languages were easy, more people would know them.
Excellent idea - I can read some but not speak it. I should do this, too. The sweet neighbor across the street (the wife) only speaks Spanish. I've written her some notes which I typed and had google translate into Spanish, but this would be so much better.
