Is that true? Does that even make sense? When I was in Mexico some of the more educated locals at the resort told me that.. apparently the two languages are very similar?
Definately true. I was told the same thing in one of my french classes, and then found myself being able to understand very basic levels of Spanish, and even other languages too.
A lot of words are very similar, and once you learn the possesives (I, you, we, they, etc.) Then you will find everything to start to slowly piece itself together.
