Advantages of Learning a Foreign Language

Advantages of Learning a Foreign Language

Language is not just a tool for communication it is a reflection of a culture. Since the time immemorial humans have travelled wide and far. With the travel comes the need to learn a new language. That would be sell their products, socialize with the locals, get to know what they need and better fulfill them etc. Given this is being the history (His Story) one cannot shy away from learning a language if you want to travel for study or business.

Now that English has already become a global language it is a bare minimum necessity to learn it. An additional language other than English will always be of help. Now that Europe is one of the welcoming places for students to study and work, one of the major things if you plan to move to Europe is you need to learn one of the local languages like French, German, Spanish etc.

This topic makes more sense for me to explain the advantages of learning and using different languages including foreign languages. Let’s dwell deep into a few of them.

1. Travel the world at ease

Learning a language helps you travel the world. For example, if you learn to converse in French you would be able to travel to 29 countries like France, Canada etc. While shopping locally helps you get better deals when you speak their language.

2. Know the culture better

One of the best reasons to learn a language is to get to know the culture and the people around. When you are in a foreign land it helps you befriend the locals, get to move around places without any inhibitions, understand what’s right, negotiate in the native tongue and get better deals.

3. Educational prospects

If you plan to pursue your further education abroad and in a non-English-speaking country and if you know to speak, read and write the language would go a long way in getting you a place in a top-notch university at a very lower cost.

4. Job prospects

In order to find a job and settle in a foreign land you might need to learn the language. This increases the job prospects and makes you employable as compared to a person without a language skill.

5. Improves your first language

When learning a new language, it would help us understand the nuances of your mother tongue or the first language. This helps you to correct your own language and its usage.

6. Build a better network

Learning a language helps you speak the tongue of a person you meet and help you instantly strike a chord with that person. That majorly helps in building a strong network and help you in all your endeavours.

7. Improves your mental capacity

Once you have learnt a new language it helps you improve your memory capacity. You would be able to listen carefully and retain many facts and figures in a shorter span of time. Your concentration also improves.
