 Far too many (usually retired) folk move to Spain and find it too much trouble to even bother to learn basic Spanish.  But simply expect the Spaniards to adapt to their arrogant English.

This sucks, and gives many of us 'Extranjeros' (foreigners) a bad name.

I can 'Get By' in Spanish and find the constant demand of learning a language simply to survive a compulsive addiction.  I could NEVER go back to just living without the additional challenge of an 'essential need' to learn a language.

:cool:

 Hmmm.  I just looked back at the topic title 'When in Rome (Spain)'... and realised how dumb that appears, but I hope you realised what I meant! :haha:

You're absolutely right Pussycat. Digo Español muy pocito, pero trato de mejorar.

Unfortunately we seem to be surrounded by people who can't be bothered. They hole themselves up in little compounds, and stick together like glue... never truly getting to enjoy the Spanish life as it should be.

We have a mix of English, Spanish, German, Finnish, and Danish friends here - and feel that we are getting so much more out of life.
