Living in a country where you have to speak a foreign language can cause serious social problems as well as practical problems. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement.

Nowadays, people are moving to foreign countries for various purposes like leisure, business and study. Migrants may face some social and practical problems if they are not aware of the foreign

language

of the

country

they have moved to. I completely agree with

this

phenomenon as pupils may find it challenging to survive there without speaking in a local

language

.

This

essay will discuss these challenges and support them with relevant examples.

Firstly

, immigrants, who do not learn a foreign

language

, can face some social problems in their daily life. Most importantly, they may find it difficult to make new friends as they would not be able to speak in a local

language

;

as a result

, they may feel demotivated and lonely.

For example

, if a group of friends are going out for a party and one of a

friend

does not know the common

language

spoken in the group,

then

that person may not understand the conversation to contribute anything more.

Moreover

,

such

people may not gel-up at their workplace with their colleagues

also

,

as a result

of which they may feel unhappy at work.

Secondly

, there can be some practical challenges after moving to another

country

in a day to day life.

For instance

, travelling in Japan was problematic for me since I cannot read Japanese and all the signboards were written in Japanese. So, I had to use a dictionary to translate it into English.

In other words

, a person becomes dependent on other sources to communicate and understand the

language

compared to a native speaker.

Furthermore

, a person may find it difficult to get basic needs

such

as food, water, without been able to communicate in a local

language

.

Thus

, learning the local

language

is important. In conclusion, some immigrants may find difficulty in settling into a foreign

country

if they do not learn the local

language

. They may face social and practical issues in their daily routine. I think that people should be aware of the issues they may come across in a different

country

beforehand so that they can prepare themselves for all the challenges.
