I took some Spanish my Sophomore year, but I forgot it all already.  It would have helped if I used it more often.

I didn't take another language, It's not mandatory in the UK, you can drop that shit at Year 10.

I took French because it was that or Spanish. But to be franklin, I would've loved to do Japanese. I guess that's why I'm learning it now.

What does this have to do with Cinco de Mayo? Anyway, I took Spanish, because I tried French and hated it. Now I'm nearly a fluent Spanish speaker, so that's awesome.

I was home schooled for high school but I learned a good bit of German during those 3 years.
 
That's right I said 3.

Uh none?  Maybe I am ancient or something but when I was in highschool you were not required to take a foreign language and since where I lived pretty much everyone spoke english and almost no one spoke anything else I didn't see the point.

Spanish for 3 years, then I celebrated the fact that I wouldn't have to take Spanish ever again! 
 
Then I realized that you had to take 2 years of a language to be an English major. So then I took Spanish again.

I picked other because I never took any language classes in High School. Also, Spanish and  Latin aren't common in Canada... At least in the prairies, anyhow!

I would say A, but I didn't vote because I took it because I wanted to.
 
I took German for one year (it was fucking awesome btw) and Spanish for two. Don't remember much of either (even though I'm half Mexican...), but learning German was way easier than Spanish (even though I spoke almost perfect Spanish when I was like, eight or so).

Two years of Spanish and I don't remember a damned thing.  Useless, but it was a requirement.

I took Spanish for two years...but only because my school dropped it's Hawaiian language program and dumped everyone in the class into Spanish.  That one year of Hawaiian was fun though.
