A few languages are increasingly spoken in different countries, while the usage of others is rapidly declining. Is this a positive or a negative development?
The world is witnessing a rapidly increasing number of people speaking
languages
such
as Chinese
, English
while the other languages
are less popular. In my opinion, I strongly argue that this
trend brings both
negative and positive effects
.
On the one hand
, using a language
together has several advantages. Firstly
, it is easier for people to communicate with each other whatever their nationality if they speak the same language

Therefore
, they can learn about other cultures
, literature or find a good job. Secondly

brings several positive effects
for one’s career. Many international companies require for

On the other
hand
, the increasing popularity of speaking a language
also
has its disadvantages. It is a fact that popular languages
bring their own cultures
and their effects
might be negative to the other cultures

In conclusion, the increasing use of some languages
and vice versa is both
a positive as well as a negative development. However
, I believe that it is necessary to save these dying languages
to protect the variety of cultures

Word Count
IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.
A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.
Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
