[quote=Anonymous]Actually, Spanish is a world language and much more widely spoken all over the world by both native speakers and for those who learn it as an additional language. In contrast, Mandarin is not. It is spoken almost entirely by Chinese people in China and in the Chinese diaspora. And many, many Chinese don't speak it at all or speak it only as a second language. So it's not nearly as useful for business as you might think. In addition, Mandarin is much, much harder for English speakers to learn than is Spanish.[/quote]
