What language should I take in Middle School?

I would recommend Spanish. French is in a state of rapid decline and is really no longer an international language. It is used in Quebec (and really nowhere else in Canada) France itself, part of Belgium, part of Switzerland and as the language of government and education in some parts of Africa. Spanish, on the other hand, is quite common anywhere in the Western Hemisphere. The idea that the United States will become a Spanish speaking country is childish and silly, but there is a very large population of Latino/as in the country, making it the most relevant foreign language for an American to learn. You'd be surprised how many Spanish speakers in New York. In October, I was in New York City to see a metal band from Portugal, and I was surprised that about half the audience was speaking Spanish. Metal and New York aren't normally associated with the Spanish language or Hispanics-- this goes to show how the language is beginning to be present in every aspect of American life. In addition, there is a huge demand for bilingual professionals (lawyers, doctors, etc) in the United States. French won't further any professional ambitions you may have.

Depends. If you're going to be a manual worker in the future (moving furniture, stealing, etc) then get Spanish. If you're going to be a professional worker, get French because it makes you more sophisticated.

I took Spanish and it was very easy a lot easier than my friends who took French also if u ever move from newyork u will be more likely to need Spanish then French. But I wouldalso recomend finding out which teacher is nicer:)

I did German . But judging by my friends Spanish was the easiest

French the language of love

Spanish

I would take Spanish... Unless you plan on moving to Canada.

spanish will definitely help you out......and if you do take spanish learning italian and french will be definitely easier

I took three years of Spanish because I didn't see the usefulness of French. You would only need it if you actually went to France or Quebec. Spanish is more useful in our increasingly Latino population. Some geographers argue that spanish will actually be the dominant language in a few years.
