Which language would you like to learn first: English or Spanish? Leave your opinion in the comments!
I want, Spanish
I want English
Many people over 15 years old do not want to and are not interested in taking advantage of this opportunity!! But I, who am 13, want to and want to, but I cannot because of my age. This is ridiculous. There should be no age limit for knowledge.
