Some people say the only reason for learning a foreign
language
 is for work or travelling to another country, but
on the contrary
, as the world becomes increasingly globalized, bilingualism or polyglotism is perhaps the greatest skill to ever exist. Personally, I think that learning foreign languages have the following advantages.
First
, speaking a foreign
language
 is incredibly sexy and it can make a person more attractive, interesting, and give an air of intelligence.
Second
, it becomes cheaper and easier when a person learns foreign languages.
Third
, knowing a foreign
language
 brings more job opportunities. China,
for example
, employs thousands of foreign teachers to teach English . Fourth, learning a foreign
language
 grows one brain.Study says that bilinguals are more creative , have bigger brains and have better memories. Fifth, studying a foreign
language
 forms meaningful friendships.
Language
 helps us to express our feelings and emotions resulting to create bonds with others.
Lastly
, studying a foreign
language
 makes a person more open-minded to other countries' native tongue, cultures and traditions. To sum up, learning a foreign
language
 is very important and the reasons to study is innumerable.
