One of the most practical things you can do when you intend to live, work, or retire in Mexico (or visit here for an extended period) is to learn or improve your Spanish language skills.
Language opens your access to the culture
Language is a primary instrument that gives you access to a foreign culture, and being able to converse in Spanish —even at a basic conversational level— will make every experience you encounter in Mexico richer, and more meaningful to you.
Spanish is an important language that is widely spoken around the the world, and Mexican Spanish is polite, clear, and easy to understand. The speed at which the language is spoken in Mexico is not as accelerated as it is Spain and some South American countries, and the pronunciation is softer, which makes the language easier to ‘pick-up’ and easier for beginners to learn.
