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

These days, many people argue that the growing trend to study English in educational institute is causing local languages on the edge of extinction. I completely agree that ability to communicate in English is paramount, but local languages

also

hold its own

importance

. In

this

essay I will support my opinion with examples.

Firstly

, In era of 21st century world has become a global village. Human begins are connected with each other,

such

as never before. In order to make

this

connection much stronger, basic knowledge of English is must.

For example

, the most common medium to communicate during international traders and travelling is English.

Thus

, one should have the basic ability to understand the speak

this

in order to have a flawless business and travel.

Secondly

, many students immigrate to foreign countries for higher education.

This

university mostly uses English as a medium of education.

Thus

, If a child is exposed to it in later stages of his/her life,

then

it became too hard to learn.

On the other hand

, every community has its own languages which has its own

importance

.

This

language

gives an individual a sense of belonging.

For instance

, it has its historical documents which are written in their

language

.

Moreover

, Government and parents play a vital role to in protection of it. In school there should be a compulsory subject of regional

language

and parents should encourage children to speak in their mother-Touge. In conclusion, English has

importance

in traders, travel and universities, but the community

language

holds cultural

importance

.

Thus

a pragmatic approach is educational board and parents should maintain an even balance between both.
