Spanish language
Spanish or Castilian (español or castellano in Spanish) is a Romance language in the Ibero-Romance group that evolved from several dialects and languages in the northern fringes of the Iberian Peninsula during the 10th century and gradually spread through the Kingdom of Castile, becoming the foremost language for government and trade in the Spanish Empire. Modern Spanish developed with the Readjustment of the Consonants that began in 15th century.

I've been using Memrise and Duolingo to dabble with leaning Spanish to see if I really do want to pursue the language and so far I've been really enjoying it.
Since I've been studying French, a lot of the words are similar and I'm familiar with the concept of the conjugations so it's actually been a breeze! I'm still only at the beginner stages so my opinion could change when I start grappling with more complex grammar!
Anyway, I've been learning Spanish from English via Memrise, and Spanish from French on Duolingo (so that I can also solidify my French).
Now that I know that I definitely do want to learn Spanish, I'm going to invest in some textbooks to learn Spanish from French. I know of the Assimil books but I need to have a look around to see what's out there before parting with my cash!

Got back on track yesterday. I used to have a nice streak on Duolingo, but got off the track. Now I'm back at it. But more then that, I started to relect on my passion and motivations. Why did I want to learn Spanish in the first place? ... Actualy, there's no clear answer to that - yet. I'm still thinking about it.
