The Spanish Language is the world’s second most used language of communication, and also the second most studied as a foreign language. In recent years it has become a centre of attention from different fields, ranging from the strictly scientific and academic areas (works published by the Spanish Royal Academy with the direct participation of members of the University of Salamanca) to the authorities and regional and national political representatives (creation of official institutions, international initiatives and funding for the internationalization of the companies of its sector), to the efforts carried out in order to promote its online visibility and the initiatives started by the publishing and tourism industries and by the service sector.
