Bedeutung
Stating that one is in the process of acquiring the Spanish language.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Spain, people appreciate the effort to learn, but they might switch to English if they see you struggling. Keep saying 'Por favor, en español' to stay in the target language. Mexicans are generally very patient and encouraging. They will often praise your accent even if it's not perfect. Argentines might be curious about why you are learning. Be prepared to explain your motivation (travel, work, etc.). Colombians are known for their hospitality and will often help you with vocabulary if you tell them you are learning.
