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 these views and give your own opinion.

Many may say, its a fact, that today's society has almost erased all its borders and soon will become limitless in what concerns travelling for both work and pleasure.

Therefore

, if

this

is to happen,

then

learning a new

language

is necessary. Nowadays, learning a new

language

for the purpose of working in other countries seems to become more and more popular. Adults in need of money or, why not, recognition are trying to pursue their happiness far away from home.

Also

, the initial days of employers looking only for capable people have gone. It seems that today's employers are looking for multi-skilled employees, but they

also

want people who know more than their mother tongue. Sooner or later, those who omitted learning more are prone to become jobless.

However

, to my mind, a new vocabulary shouldn't be learned just for travelling or working in an overseas. A foreign

language

should help the learner broaden his mind. By

this

mean that the new

language

should and will allow us to understand more about the world itself, and maybe our ancestors ways of thinking and acting. Needless to say, knowing another

language

will help us when it comes to understanding the human race, because accent is the

first

poem of a country. All of

this

being said, my opinion is that learning a different communication methods should be not only for satisfying our physical needs, like money, but

also

our moral needs, because never before had

such

a big thrust for knowledge been displayed.
