Band 4

Learning English at school is often seen as more important than learning local language. If these are not taught many are at risk of dying out. In your opinion, is it important for everyone to learn English? Should we try to ensure the survival of local languages and, if so, how?

For instance
, India, a plural nation, has majorly 122 languages, which makes local

However
, learning and embracing one’s culture and

 shall not be seen as a conflicting opportunity.
