Learning English and other languages

Filed under: Science — ellichen @ 2:09 pm

It’s not about the way of learning new languages. This post deals with the phenomenon of studying more and more foreign languages. Have you ever think about the purpose of taking the new ones?

English is the most popular and useful language. Speaking English, you can talk to people who live all over the world. It might be a springboard to new experiences. Getting an interesting job is easier. You have an opportunity to make new friends. It doesn’t matter that they don’t come from your country. It also sounds great because you learn something about their culture.

The conclusion: ‘English = connecting people’

I have been learning German for 6 years. I don’t regret my choice. If I strike up a conversation with German people, I am supposed to be an English speaker. It seems to be funny ;) . What’s more, it always turns out that one can understand people more. They truly express their feelings using their mother tongue. Then you’ve got the point! In addition, the last research says that people speaking more than 2 languages live longer.

Taking everything into consideration, you should learn as many languages as possible so don’t waste your time!

My first post

To all my readers.

I’m so pleased to write my blog in English. Before I got this one, I’d been thinking about a language which I should choose. I want to share my opinions with lots of people. Bearing in mind my idea, I decided to post all my thoughts in English.

Today it was a great day. I notized that my pen-pals from myspace have their own blogs so do I.  I think it might be interesting and it would not end up giving the activity up. Well, we will see.

I love foreign languages. You could say: ‘What has the blog got to do with them?’ The answer is clear.  Writing the blog is a process which helps me to improve my English.  I hope you will be enjoying reading it as much as I’m enjoying writing it right now.

Thank you for paying attention to my blog.
