-what makes this language worth the time

There are several reasons. One is that it's the third largest language used in the world. Many students are learning two languages as this will help in their jobs. Several on our site are missionaries or doctors. They want to be able to help those who are ill. Knowing the Spanish language is a great asset.
Some sources list Spanish as the second most used language by native speakers. Chinese is number one, of course, specifically Mandarin Chinese which is the official language of China and Taiwan. There are also significant numbers of ethnic Chinese in other countries such as Singapore and Indonesia. There are many other Chinese languages that are spoken but they all use the same written language. English is number three and is taught and widely spoken in many Euopean countries and places like Malaysia but, that would not be counted as a language used by native speakers.
