Spanish is one of the top foreign languages spoken around the country. Many people are learning to speak Spanish because it is a language that is needed today. Since so many Spanish-speaking people live around us, it is important to know how to communicate with them.
Many employers want their employees to know how to speak Spanish since they may have Spanish-speaking businesses that they work with. They may not have the funds to hire a spanish translation service in order to help them speak to their clients. It is up to the business to be prepared to speak to their clients on their own in the clients' language.
Employees are sometimes asked to go to the client's country in order to handle some business. The client does not have a translator in place for the employee, unless they speak English. This is also true for students and tourists who visit Spanish-speaking countries. They may become lost if they do not know how to speak Spanish. They may become fortunate enough to locate a Spanish translator who can help them while they are in the country. (more...)
