Living in a country where you have to speak a foreign language can cause serious problems, as well as practical problems. To what extend do you agree or disgree with this statement?
Nowadays, many
people
choose to leave their homelands to work as ex-pats or live as immigrants in another country. Therefore
, they need to cope with new cultures, new people
and use new languages other than their mother tongue. Despite various linguistic problems
they may have to face, it is only the minor troubles, and everyone can overcome them sooner or later.
On the one hand, it is undeniable that using a foreign language
has never been easy, especially when people
live in a new country, surrounded by ones who speak a different language
. Many linguistic problems
may happen, some seem severe, and some may only be practical problems
. For instance
, if one does not have a standard language
level, he cannot understand what others are saying. As a result
, he cannot work or study effectively and ends up feeling useless and isolated. That is
serious trouble. Another example is when people
cannot express their ideas adequately, others can misunderstand their intentions and exacerbate situations.
On the other hand
, it is supposed that everyone has to acknowledge the importance of learning new languages before immigrating to other countries. Therefore
, they should be well prepared and need to achieve a proper level. In that case, they can surpass all linguistic problems
above. Indeed, if individuals can manage the issue of languages, they can take it as their advantage and leverage their endeavour at a global scale. For example
, many top managers of large enterprises in Vietnam are ex-pats from Western or Middle Eastern countries.
In conclusion, the language
barrier is the first
challenge that people
face whenever they migrate to a new country. However
, mastering a new language
is attainable and can open a variety of opportunities in life.Submitted by diepthuong222 on
