Every year several languages die out. Some people think that this is not important because life will be easier if there are fewer languages in the world. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

After the
second
world
war, the
world
was physically separated among various nations, because of phenomenon
such
as globalization in the 20th century, people started to migrate between the countries,
consequently
, it made the whole globe as one virtual nation. Since, communities left their homes in search of jobs and got settled in new countries and started to learn local dialects, whereas they are now forgetting their own mother tongue. Some critics assert that the primitive languages should not diminish from the society, while I completely agree that the number of languages used by the community should be reduced which will make life easier.
Firstly
, the tourism industry will be boosted when the count of
language
used is reduced, because it becomes easy for the tourists to learn these fewer languages and it will bolster them understand about the people of a country and explore even remote areas.
In other words
, once you are in a foreign country you tend to feel alone as you cannot converse with the local people, and sometimes it becomes hard to even secure basic items namely food, grocery for the survival. In Japan,
for instance
, as a tourist in you feel that locals do not like to talk to non-native, whereas you cannot converse here without the Japanese
language
which makes difficult for a tourists to understand what to buy in a supermarket.
Moreover
, since the sign boards
also
used local jargon, so for tourists, it becomes cumbersome process to explore their destinations properly.
Secondly
, for the development of
world
it will be of great help of students, as they can study in an advanced nation and secure a job even if the they are able to converse in the universal adopted
language
.
For example
, in South Korea even though if you are highly qualified, it is very arduous to secure a job without knowing the native
language
,
as a result
, good talent leaks to another country.
Furthermore
, some of the nations are deprived of young workforce, so if they can be more open to one common method of expression,
this
will enhance the migration numbers,
hence
will have a positive impact on their economy. To conclude, reduction in the number of languages will be beneficial to whole
world
's unity, as people with different culture start talking and understanding more of each other.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
