There is no doubt that studying an overseas
language
plays a vital role in today's world.
However
, while some believe that
this
should be learned mainly either to travel or work in a distant country, I would agree with those who argue that knowing international languages helps someone in many of the paths in one's life, not just for travel and work alone.
Firstly
, considering why people gain knowledge in an external
language
is mainly for the sake of travelling or working abroad.
This
is because individuals who possess
this
skill have wider job opportunities abroad to service or produce globally.
For instance
, in MNC's where the Japanese projects are being done, there will be a high demand for employees to be recruited to help their project become successful and have smooth communication.
In contrast
, not having
this
could narrow down the possibility of attaining a high-level job and lead to low career growth.
However
, there are many reasons people acquire far-off
language
other than merely for travelling or working abroad. With the vast improvement in internet facilities, one can gain a well-respected job even within one's home country without needing to travel.
For example
, these days, translators, interpreters positions are available within their place. Even many online jobs, remote working jobs can be done individually as a free-lancer with the help of technology.
Furthermore
, Bilingual and Multilingual people are smarter than monolinguals as it strengthens their brain connections to do a high-level activity.
As a result
of
this
, they would be able to work much faster; in turn, it makes them smarter and sharper. To support
this
, many schools these days offer additional
language
for their students to study in order to make them smarter and citizens with global awareness.
Additionally
, research has demonstrated that learning a foreign
language
delays the onset of any psychological and mental illness from arising and can
also
help manage
such
problems as a way of treatment.
Another positive aspect of having learned an international
language
is that global awareness among the learners. As culture and
language
are intrinsically linked, other nations' cultures can be relatively easily achieved.
This
can be done through by enjoying their art, music and literature.
In conclusion,
although
gaining an international
language
plays an important role in travelling or working abroad, it does not stop there.
Instead
, it
also
has many other merits discussed above by working in their home country, being globally aware, and having a sound mind.
