Warum? Scheint ein bisschen komisch, oder?
I don't know why the Dutch are learning English, at school you get pretty good lessons. Maybe to freshen it up?

That's a really interesting map. Which countries are trying to learn Italian and Turkish? I don't see any

The thing that surprises me about this map is every country has data. Like even in the poorest countries, there's still a few aspiring entrepreneurs using their smartphone to learn new languages to make doing business easier in linguistically diverse places like Africa. That's what I get from the data at least, with francophone African countries learning English and Anglophone African countries learning French, so it's probably from people who have a reason to communicate with people in neighboring countries.

Ya dun' goofed, spanish is better than english as a native language.
I'm currently using it for russian

It makes it feel fake

How? Internet penetration is skyrocketing in poor countries because cell phones are so cheap now and immensely useful for day to day life.

Exactly

Where should I learn Spanish from?
>>58935938
I know the technology is advancing, but countries like North Korea? The small little island states? They all using Duolingo?

I mean, I guess it makes sense since a lot of them do immigrate to Germany.

North Korea has a fair amount of tourists. In guessing someone used the Duolingo app while visiting North Korea. And I'm guessing countries like the Falklands are just counted with Britain because they and a lot of other island nations are technically semi autonomous dependencies like that.

You should definitely avoid places like /lat/, so if you have questions you're better off asking in /esp/ or the rarer /col/, "white america" threads.
Like any other language i recommend learning some basics (you have /int/wiki for that) and then listening/singing music and watching movies/media in the language.
Music: I don't listen a lot of native ones but Fonseca, Shakira, Juanes, Intoxicados, Maná, Café Tacuva come to mind. Dunno what you like tho.
Movies/Series: I think Narcos is very famous, Peter capusotto y sus videos, novelas if you're into them, news reports like NTN24 and caracol internacional.
As for movies i liked Paraíso travel, Lo que el viento se llevó, La sangre y la lluvia, and the one that was in the last oscars.
After you get accostumed to the sound and start picking up stuff you can start looking for more resources to learn proper grammar and extending your vocabulary.
At least, that's how i learned english, picked up some japanese from my weeb cartoons, and now i'm also applying it to russian

Alright, thank you, I already know a little bit of Spanish but it's typical Spanish that most white people would know anyway

I would've thought ours would be Italian, oh well same thing as French anyway :^)
Feels good being fluent on the top 3
German would be the next choice but nah
it blows my mind that people would spend time learning spanish
