As computers translate quickly and accurately , learning foreign languages is a waste of time? To what extent do you agree or disagree? Over the last half century , parallel to the development of mass-media and the internet around the world , both online and offline dictionaries which can be easily installed on PCs, laptops as well as cellphones , are have been developed. While in the past for finding a the meaning of specific word , you had to search different hard copies, today by a simple search in on the internet , you discover different meanings of any words in different languages. Some people believe as computers quickly and accurately translate, learning a new language is a waste of time. In this essay I am going to compare different advantages and disadvantages of this issue. For instance, as in my experience , I had to translate a Chinese article to Persian and you knowobviously the learning of this language is a little hard. Anyway by the Google translate software I did that easily. First it was translated to English then to Persian. Although I could translate the article in a relatively short period of time by the minimum time as possible , two months later when I went to china for business ,I could not speak with locals and it forced me to hire a translator. It is impossible that the result of the process of learning a language that takes a long times will be equal to the function of the computers. Moreover, anyhow sometimes computers could not transfer your exact meaning. In my opinion, computers are so useful for translating the texts and to some extent speaking about minor tasks. However , when you want to communicate with foreign people for some greater goals , such as participating in an international Seminar or contracting signing a contract with a foreign company , being fluent on in their language is required . As in conclusion , Not only is not learning a foreign language not a waste of time, but rather also necessary.
