As global citizens, why do we need to learn different languages? Watch the video and find out the reasons!
What are these 4 reasons?
- one reason to learn new languages is that they are tickets to being able to participate in the culture of the people who speak them.
- it’s been shown that if you speak two languages, dementia is less likely to set in, and that you are probably a better multitasker. Bilingualism is healthy.
- Languages are just an awful lot of fun. For example, languages have different word orders. Learning how to speak with different word order is like driving on the different side of a street if you go to a certain country or the feeling that you get when you put Witch Hazel around your eyes and you feel the tingle.
- We live in an era when it’s never been easier to teach yourself another language.
