Spanish as either first or second language
Over 3000 million people in the world speak modern Spanish, and therefore, it one of the four dominant languages in the world and comes after English, Mandarin Chinese, and Hindu. It is an official language to numerous languages such as Spain, Equatorial Guinea, US protectorate of Puerto Rico, and eighteen countries in Central and South America. In areas of Southern United States, Urban, and the cultural regions of the US, Spanish is categorized as either first or second language. US census of 1990 indicates that over 17 people aged above five years are conversant with Spanish in the US.
Many states which have chosen Spanish as either their primary or official language are linguistically diverse. These countries have bilingualism as their culture but are not linguistically universal. In Northern Spain, Spanish is their official language, but other primary languages include Catalan, Basque, and Galician. The languages used alongside Spanish in Latin America are numerous. For instance, in Bolivia, over 50% of the population speaks in either Quechua or Aymara, and over 45% of the population, which expresses the two languages do not speak Spanish. In the Iberian Peninsula, dialects of Spanish include Leonese, Navarro-Aragonese, and the southern. Although numerous countries speak Spanish all over the world, the language uses uniform syntax and morphological structure, and this is because of its ancient political uniformity of the language in Spain before it spread to Castilian dialect. The purpose of this uniformity was to enable easier re-conquer of the peninsula after Moors occupied it in the 18th Century.
Spanish is closely related to Latin, Italian, and Sardinian. Over 60% of the vocabulary used by modern Spanish was derived from Latin. Also, 8% of Spanish vocabulary has Arabic origin from the early state. This Arabic vocabulary was absorbed during the Al-Andalus era in the Iberian Peninsula. Spanish is also related to Iberian, Basque, Visigothic, and Celtiberian. Lately, Spanish has absorbed vocabulary of Roman languages such as Italian, Portuguese, Catalan, Andalusi Romance, Sardinian, Galician, and Occitan. Lastly, Spanish relates to other indigenous languages of America, Quenchua, and Nahuati.
Morphological
The Spanish language does not adhere to the case system, but when it subscribe to it, it is primarily accusative, nominative, or dative. Still, it does not adhere to object or pronoun markets. Where it gets weirder is the les and le since you do not need it, so you can either have it or not. You can also have it plus the a to be emphatic about supporting les and le because they are unisex, but they are used for the recipient. For example;
Doy a Joy – I give to Joy
Le doy – I give to her
Doy a Jack – I give to Jack
Le doy – I give to him
Doy a Joy y Jack – I give to Joy and Jack
Les Doy – I give it to them.
Where you observe the difference is in the yo, tu, nosotros and vosotros when they are direct object makers.
