Living in a country where you have to speak a foreign language can cause serious social problems as well as practical problems. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement

#country #language
Language
 is the important means to communicate with another person. When a person immigrates to a
country
 with a different
language
, he or she might not know the
language
. But
this
 does not cause any serious impact socially or practically, as the people can manage to learn the
language
. When a person moves to a
country
 for work, it might be an arduous task to understand the
language
.
As a result
, it may seem like he is not efficient as he will not be able to express his ideas properly.
However
,
this
 can be overcome easily when they start learning the native
language
 of the place. If they learn the
language
, they can converse with the citizens which can improve their social life. In a recent survey conducted by the "E-life" magazine shows that around 60% of the immigrant population of Japan started learning Japanese and 50% of them had started speaking it, which helped them to have Japanese friends. In addiction to
this
, native citizens as well as the immigrants will have an opportunity to learn about different cultures. One more point worth considering is that people learn at a faster rate when they are in the
country
 itself.
Although
, they can survive with universally accepted
language
, English. We can find a small number of English speakers even in countries like China, Japan and Russia. In conclusion, the immigrants can live in a
country
 where they do not know the native
language
 as they can survive even with English.
However
, some may invest time in learning the
language
 in order to make some friends in that
country
.
