Week 17: In my view

-A trending topic I strongly support is the fact that many people are sharing the hashtag #dontspoiltheendgame.

Week 16: Laguage

-Here we have a map of all the languages spoken in the world. However, it is not very clear, so this is the link for this image in case that you want to take a look at it:  https://www.mapsofworld.com/world-language-map.htm Honestly, there are many languages that I would like to be able to speak. I believe that French is not very hard to learn, and taking into a count that I am Spanish and I am studying Italian, I do not think that French is really very different than the things that I have already studied. It is said that French is not very dissimilar from Italian or Spanish. I would like to take classes someday and try to speak it because I think it is beautiful. Furthermore, I would love to speak German, as it is very important nowadays, but I find it very difficult and different from the languages I have already studied, so I am afraid of learning it. Finally, another laguage that I want to learn is Chinese or Japanese, because it is very awkward and that could make me get a jo
