Some people think that to learn a second language well it is necessary to live in the country where the language is spoken. What is your opinion about this?

Growing competition these days has made it imperative for individuals to learn a

second

language

, which is generally a foreign jargon. A

lot

of people might think that residing in a provincial where that

language

has originated and is widely spoken is important; it definitely gives one an edge,

however

, it is not necessary. The following paragraphs elaborate on

this

topic. An individual will definitely get more exposure to the

language

if he stays in the

country

where it is spoken, as there he will get to interact with a

lot

of native speakers of the

language

. He will get to apply the

language

and understand nuances at the same time. He will

also

get timely feedback to correct in case of any mistakes and he will be able to learn it much quickly and easily. He will

also

get to learn about the history of that place and that

language

and

thus

gain an in-depth understanding of how the

language

originated. For most people,

this

option is not available as they will not necessarily be able to move to another

country

just to learn the

language

. Fortunately,

this

is not a big problem / hurdle. A

lot

of training programs and courses are available both online and offline

,

show examples

so that individuals can learn a

language

of their choice. People from different countries have immigrated to other countries for better opportunities, so native speakers of different languages are spread across the globe. The internet has

also

made it possible for individuals to have access to trainers or learned speakers of the

language

, making it possible to get a similar level of exposure to a foreign

language

from within one’s own

country

. In these times when the world is getting smaller, a

lot

of schools offer at-least five to six foreign languages as a part of the curriculum, making it easier for students to learn a

second

language

from an early age. The best example of

this

is India; it has the

second

largest population of people speaking English after the United States of America.

Therefore

, to conclude, I do not think it is necessary for an individual to live in a

country

where the

language

he wants to learn is spoken, though it can prove to be an enriching experience.
