It is hard to imagine something as emotional and beautiful-sounding as the Spanish language, which is also called Castellano by the native people, referring to the classic form of Spanish. Since many regional language types differ quite a lot, the Castilian as a standard is mostly spoken in northern and central Spain, while there are dialects like Andalusian, Galician, or even a complex Catalan! It makes learning Spanish or traveling through the country even more fascinating! There are at least four irresistibly interesting facts about the Spanish that inspire enough to start learning this romantic language of passion! 

1. The Spanish language belongs to phonetic languages. It means that when you speak it, you must pronounce letters with consistency where each letter becomes a particular sound. It also makes things simpler to learn compared to English because there are almost no spelling challenges once you master at least a few simple paragraphs. Still, Spanish has more than enough hardships related to Grammar, specific use of adjectives, and the articles that come along! If this does not seem enough to make things interesting, Spanish has more tenses than the English language! 
2. Spanish is not only fast-spoken but also has very long sentences. It becomes evident when you have to translate anything from English to Spanish. It is guaranteed that there will be a natural expansion of text by at least 20%. An interesting aspect is that words in Español are as long as the German words, as an example, but have the tendency to be detailed. As a rule, Spanish sentences are always expressive and poetic, which forces translators to include several words for what could be replaced with a single word in English. Nevertheless, it still reflects the original text. You can check accurate Spanish translation website and see how your sentences will differ and what it takes to deliver the best results. Spanish is a beautiful language, especially when translated right! 
3. The Language Guardians. The Royal Spanish Academy has the official responsibility to protect the language and impose the rules and the way how it must be learned. It sets the language standards and acts through the Association of Spanish Language Academies for the rest of the countries where Spanish is an official or one of the recognized languages. It becomes an important point, considering that there are 21 countries. An interesting fact is that these defenders of Spanish language have had their legal power since the 18th century and are in charge of dictionaries, grammar textbooks, and the inclusion of any new words in legal, engineering, or healthcare documents. The famous addition of the Royal Academy includes the letter ñ, which is pronounced as "enya"! 
4. Spanish is the world's third most popular language on the Internet, representing approximately 257 million users. The use of Spanish online has grown by 1,312.4% from 2000 to 2015, which is not surprising since Spanish is one of the six official languages of the United Nations and is spoken in 22 countries.
