Some people say that the only reason for learning a foreign language is in order to travel to or work in a foreign country. Others say that these are not the only reasons why someone should learn a foreign language. Discuss both and give your own opinion. Living in the global village, whose citizens are increasingly getting close to each other through travelling or the media, underpins the importance of learning foreign languages. There are two opposing views toward this issue. While the first group believe that the sole reasons for learning a foreign language are travelling or working, the others state that there are more other causes of learning a new dialect. Although my own opinion is more inclined toward the latter group, I will discuss both ideas in the followings. On one side, since migration has become a new trend among most nations, it seems knowing a second language other than their native language one can be very beneficial for those who decide to leave their home country in the hope for of making a living in another place because it would considerably enhance their chance of finding a decent job if they could speak fluently the language of that country. Moreover, it would be much easier to interact with people when you know their language well and It would prevent from misunderstandings which are caused by lacking in language knowledge. On the other side, being able to understand an international language like “English” could have many advantages even when you live in your homeland. For example, having a large amount of articles written in English, a university student can have a great access to the science world if she knows English. Therefore, it is definitely a good opportunity for everyone to learn at least one foreign language regardless of their intention for travelling to a different region. In conclusion, although it is a necessity for immigrants to learn the language of their destination, it is not the only reason for it. Being able to speak in another language has now become a must by which you can understand the world better, in other words, not only is multilingualism a skill for your longterm success, but also a useful means which widens your lookhorizons.
