Foreign Language and Grammar

On Tuesday, about the time Leo mentioned wishing he'd paid more attention in his foreign language classes, I was thinking about how much more I learned in my Spanish classes. In high school I really didn't pay attention, but during my college classes I started paying a lot more attention (especially after I switched into English Education). Some of the terms that I learned in Spanish (the language), I still think of in Spanish. I had to take a Spanish lit class as well and remember more terms and examples from that than any English class I've taken!
