What major wars has the Spanish empire been in?
Fascinating question. There are so many that it would take a lot of space to go through them. Fortunately, you can find most (not sure if all!) of them here:List of wars involving Spain Just to pick one of special historical relevance, Battle of Lepanto deserved to be in the What If?

How do you say "Drum Major" in Spanish?
Tambor mayor, tambor lider or tambor principal
How do you say "major in" "minor in" in spanish?
There's no way to translate that accurately. All countries have different words. I can't think of a country that has "majors" and "minors" as such, but of course I can be mistaken. For a 'major' you could say "especialización en psicología, and maybe for "minor" you could say something like "especialización menor en antropología y justicia penal". The last term -justicia penal- might change in the different countries. Another option is to leave the words 'major' and 'minor' in English.. "major en psicología", "minor en antropología y justicia penal". I'd probably do the latter. My degree is "área mayor......." and "área menor......" but even though that's the way they say it at my university, it sounds kind of weird to me. .
What is a good minor to pair with a Spanish major?
It really depends on what you're interested in doing and what your school offers. If you want a good salary with a lot of job opportunities, then try international business programs. If that's not available, then try a business program. This will help you in getting a job with a company who needs to deal with spanish-speaking people and businesses. Due to the international financial climate that has emerged in the past 20-30 years, employees who speak a second language are becoming increasingly important and increasingly needed. If that doesn't sound good, then you can try a human services minor. One example is social work. This field desperately needs employees who speak both spanish and english. However, your chances of getting a really high salary in this field are slim, especially just starting out. On the other hand, there are job opportunities in this field that do pay well, and this kind of job can leave you feeling good about your work at the end of the day. How can you not feel good when helping others? Lastly, criminal justice could be interesting, as it can lead you to the CIA, FBI, et al. These agencies are also requiring employees to speak second languages. Hope that helps. All the best...
Is it dumb to major in nursing and minor in spanish?
"everyone" is an idiot. If you're fluent in spanish, your application flies right up to the top of the list. more education never hurt anyone (unless you're a phd in business and financing applying to be a shift manager at mcdonald's lol) especially depending on where you live. fluent in spanish in hawaii? not so much. Florida/california/texas/arizona (well i guess every state lol) yes it'll benefit TREMENDOUSLY!
Should I major in psychology and minor in spanish?
Just majoring in psychology alone won't get you very far. Do you have any idea what career path you're headed towards? Psychiatry is of course and medical field which would get you a lot of money, but you'd have to get an MD for that. Figure out what you're interested in working as, and go from there. As for the combination of Spanish and Psychology.. both very good majors, although when put together, have very little significance.
How is it to study Spanish major in the college?
Consider majoring in something else but doing a junior-year-abroad in a Spanish-speaking country AND once there making no English-speaking friends. It’s very, very tough and incredibly lonely, but it will force you to learn, learn, learn every waking hour. Tips: (1) Always carry a Spanish-English; English-Spanish dictionary with you. (2) When not otherwise occupied, read Spanish language novels, short stories, and newspapers (and use that dictionary!). (3) Take courses about the history and literature of the Spanish-speaking nation in which you’re living — in Spanish. For this wait until the second semester of your junior-year abroad, since by then you’ll only be mostly instead of totally lost.
What I can do with a double major in French and Spanish?
If you want to teach, in USA (if that's where you're from), you'll also need to get a teaching license which would take at least an extra year of school plus student teaching. Some other ideas- teach ESL in another country. It's very easy to get hired with a college degree, especially in countries like Japan, China and Korea. English language assistant in France http://www.ciep.fr/en/assistantetr/ Language/culture assistant in Spain http://www.mec.es/sgci/usa/en/programs/us_assistants/default.shtml Yes you could work for the government, if you qualify for the work. Generally government jobs will require other skills besides speaking other languages. Translate/interpretation- yes you could do this, but your language skills need to be extremely proficient, like a native speaker. Translation is easier because it is written work, but interpretation is more difficult as you are interpreting language in one language and simultaneously converting it to the next language. Also, some companies would requrie you to have a translation graduate certificate or graduate degree. Some other jobs- Work in hotel/hospitality/tourism industry Work in sales/customer service for a company that does international business- could even start with a job, say in a call center (just as a start to gain experience) Tutor Missionary work Peace Corps Americorps Foreign student adviser ESL teacher in USA (you'd need a master's degree/certificate, depending on where you'd be teaching) There are a lot of jobs out there- but you may need more training to get some of them. You can also check out Indeed.com, where you can type in key words for your job search (i.e. French or Spanish), and get job alerts sent to your email inbox. Good luck!
What's it like to double major in nursing and spanish?
I am an R.N., and I sure wish I knew Spanish better than I do. It would have made my work so much easier in terms of communicating with patients and also opening the doors of many opportunities in so many bilingual settings where I live. I learned what I know on my own but not enough to put on a resume. I know that nursing school is very time-consuming with what is required coursework in addition to clinical rotations, and I don't know what kind of student you are; but my suggestion is that if you feel you are capable of doing a double major, go for it........especially if you have a passion for learning Spanish. If it is too much, maybe take one or two courses where you have a semester that might seem less stressful, but keep up with it as much as you can where and when you can. Perhaps, you could also pursue a degree in languages after you finish your nursing degree. You might want to check with your school counselor for more practical and specific guidance on this matter, pero buena suerte, enfemera jovena con sus estudios y futuro.
