Language
 barrier has long been seen as the biggest friction for
people
 who come from different countries to communicate with each other and exchange ideas. The technology nowadays is able to allow
language
translation
 in real-time, decreasing the need to be multi-languagers. In my point of view,
although
 learning various
languages
 will be helpful for
people
 to learn more about cultures, customs, and thought patterns of different areas, the
translation
 software does lower the importance of learning more
languages
.
To begin
 with, it is undeniable that learning foreign
languages
 is beneficial to one's mind and improves the
further
 growth of nerve cells and forms more complicated
as well as
 strong connections . Lots of surveys indicated that speaking multilanguage makes nerve cells in the human brain more active and can think broader than those who only speak mono
language
.
However
, in the real world, there are few
languages
 predominant (especially English) and that creates a problem: we know how to interact with nations from UK or US, but in many Asian areas,
although
 we live closer, we can just communicate with each other by poor English speaking skills. And now, through
translation
 machines or apps, chatting with a wide range of
people
 all around the world seems not as difficult as before. The functions of voice recognition or typing in words are so convenient even if a man doesn't have any related specialist knowledge can easily know what exactly other
people
 say, which decreases the
language
 barrier effectively and leads to more practical discussions. It
also
 tackles a serious issue to some degree,
that is
 learning a foreign
language
 could be extremely expensive and
thus
 limit available budget. Funding can be used to do more far-reaching studies and tests.
To sum up
, with a phone or other portable device downloading
translation
 apps, humans nowadays are allowed to talk to
people
 from different nations.
Hence
, the importance of learning more
languages
 decreases.
