Computers today can quickly and accurately translate languages, therefore, it is a waste of time to learn a foreign language. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In the modern world, many devices can without delay and mistakes translate from one to another

language

,

thus

, learning of foreign

language

would be a wasting of time. I strongly disagree with

this

statement because people not only develop their cognitive skills but

also

experience another

culture

deeply through learning its mother tongue.

To begin

, people improve their brain function when learning a foreign

language

. It is common knowledge that if an individual acquires knowledge about something new as another

language

structure, the brain activity is increasing,

hence

, it helps his brain develops, work better, and memorise more information.

For example

, recent research shows two groups of French people; one of them was given a task to learn a foreign speech, whereas another used translator. After few months, in comparison with the

second

group, people who have learned a new

language

showed better performance of their cognitive skills,

moreover

, their result in memorising images was up to 20% higher. Another evidence is that learning a

language

helps get to know a country

culture

. The

first

distinguishing attribute one country from another it is its mother-tongue. When people learn about a country they have to know not only a national flag, a map and its natural heritage but

also

the

language

is spoken in

this

state. To illustrate, many people say that when they went abroad usually use translator,

however

, if they would have started to learn a local dialect, the spirit of nation and understanding of

culture

, in general, was better. In conclusion, during the age of modern devices, it seems that learning of foreign

language

is a waste of time, due to beneficial technologies that can fast and quite correct translate the information. In my firm conviction, I take the view that despite cutting edge technologies, mankind ought to develop themselves and learn about another

culture

through the learning of a new

language

.
