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? #country #language

As we all know, living in a foreign
country
and dealing with new people is not plain sailing. Surviving in a place where a different
language
is spoken will not be easy even if you are fluent in that
language
. So, I agree that one has to face

Rephrase

many social
problems
as well as
practical
problems
. In
this
essay, I will dig into some of the issues why it is not that simple to live in a foreign
country
. The very first thing one has to encounter is the
language
barrier. The different dialects will surely make you have trouble.
Moreover
, even buying things from a store will not be easy if you do not understand their accent. Another problem comes from communication with the local dwellers.
For example
, the local people invite you to a party but you cannot make new friends because of the
language
barrier
while
the others are having fun.
Also
, you will not get a chance to have conversations with your neighbours. Since you live in a new place you need to widen your social circle so you must be fluent in the
language
of the
country
that he intends to move to.
In addition
, coping with new cultures is another challenging thing. Every
country
has different religions and manners so we need to struggle a lot to fit in. If we cannot communicate, we will not get the opportunity to learn about their cultures and we will not settle in their community. The consequences of
this
are loneliness
along with
no friends and low socializing.
For instance
, when I travelled to Spain for business even though it was just a week, I felt so alone because I had no one to speak to or hang out with. I cannot imagine myself living there for extra weeks without even knowing a word. These are the detrimental effects of living in a
country
where you have to speak a foreign
language
. Taking everything into consideration,
although
we can not deny that there are so many
problems
in migrating to a different
country
, we can solve these
problems
with the help of
language
.
Also
, as time goes by we will be used to these
problems
.
