If you take Spanish first and master it, the CLOSEST and EASIEST language for a spanish speaker to learn is Italian. Of course there are others like french, portuguese etc.. but Italian is easier than all those for a spanish speaker. You can also do it vice versa, learn Italian first than spanish. But DO NOT try to learn them at the same time. If you do that you will be confused and have 2 languages with such similarity and could get mixed up when speaking or using them. As well as the fact that you must take time to master one than move on to actually make progress. And so what if they don't offer Italian at your school? I know spanish, english and I'm learning japanese. They don't offer japanese at my school. What you should do which is what I did was to immerse myself in japanese grammar books, vocabulary books, dictionaries, writing books, language cds, and anything else that would help. As well as listen to japanese music, watch movies in japanese, and buy comics in japanese to help me hear and familiarize myself with the language. You should do the same with Italian. See if you can also find a teacher like I did. If you want to learn Italian you can do it. Basically I know spanish and I can still read A LITTLE Italian. The words are similar but with some twists from spanish. EX. SPANISH: Night: NOCHE ITALIAN: NIGHT: NOTTE See? It's similar. Good luck with learning whichever one! By the way, how did you get your screen name like this?? ๑۩۞۩๑ ☠Giannaaa☠ ๑۩۞۩๑ Kind of cool<br><b>References : </b><br>Itaria go wa omoshiroi gengo da yo!

You should get comfortable with Spanish first. It would make learning Italian easier but not because Italian is harder than Spanish. Just cuz its similar and you can carry some things over from Spanish to Italian and vice versa. Cmon forget about it, youll learn Italian real fast badabing badaboom...lol<br><b>References : </b><br> Id say just learn Italian after Spanish. You should get comfortable with Spanish first.

Italian is not useful at all (It's only spoken in Italy) and Spanish is almost as useful as English, it is spoken in many countries. I learned Italian and it is beautiful, but When I went to Italy, all italians wanted to talk with me in English... They see that you are an alien, and they immediately think "ENGLISH" so, better learn spanish. And NO, The grammar is not the same, there are some serious differences... But spanish is more evolutionated. it is this order (In evolution) LATIN==>ROMANIAN==>ITALIAN==>PORTUGUESE==> SPANISH===> FRENCH which is after ???

They're similar enough that you'll confuse them. Start with Spanish, and once you get to a level where you can use all the tenses comfortably, then start Italian. They're both wonderful languages.
