Learning English at school is often seen as more important than learning local languages. 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?

It is undoubted that nowadays, English is one of the core subjects in many developed education programmes.

, which will result in the disappearance of them. Personally, I completely agree that

English is essential in today’s sophisticated world, and at the same time, steps should be taken to prevent local languages from dying out. The reasons why English is important in schooling are manifold.

Firstly

of global commerce but of academics as well.

Furthermore

, most computer softwares and other fundamental technology tools are written in English, so it is vital for youngsters to learn

Secondly

, individuals who are proficient in English will have better job opportunities with high salary that those who not.

This

is because most of giant businesses and international organizations require their employees to use English fluently and coherently.

However

, it is equally important to preserve the local languages, too. While ensuring the survival of a

is not a trivial task, we can make a start by promoting the regional languages through organizing cultural events and holding literacy competitions. The

about the regional languages would go a long way too in preventing them from dying out. To sum up, I feel that learning English is no doubt highly important in today’s world.

However

, special care should be taken for the survival of local languages as well.
