Some people say that the only reason for learning a foreign language is in order to travel to or working a foreign country. Others say that these are not the only reasons why someone should learn a foreign language. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Learning a foreign language is commonly done nowadays. Some people claim that the only reason behind
this
phenomenon is travelling or working abroad, Linking Words
while
others envision that there are other reasons behind it. Linking Words
This
essay will discuss in the following paragraphs both views Linking Words

such

That is
the reason why it is crucial to have at least minimal education about the spoken dialect of the country visited. To illustrate Linking Words
this
, learning Italian has made my recent experience in Italy much easier than when I visited it in the past. Linking Words
Thus
, it is beneficial to seek linguistic knowledge before attending foreign countries.

However

, has many advantages because it's the first international language in the world. Linking Words
This
latter can be useful in scientific research, Linking Words

Furthermore
