Spanish is a Romance language of the Ibero-Romance subgroup. At present, 329 million people all over the world speak Spanish, which makes it the second language in the world by the number of people for whom it is the native language (after Chinese). Spanish is one of the six official languages of the UNO and an official language of the European Union.

Spanish is based on Latin, which was brought to the Iberian Peninsula by Romans during the Second Punic War (BC 218–202). Spain had been attacked by German tribes throughout the 5th century, and, as a result, vulgar Latin evolved. After the Muslim conquest of Spain in AD 711–732, the Arabic speech began to influence Spanish very much. Modern Spanish evolved as a result of the consonant shift in the 15th century. During Spain’s supremacy, Spanish spread in America, Africa and Asia.
