Reasons for Learning a Foreign Language
In the United Stated, many high schools require at least two years of foreign language study for graduation. Actually, becoming fairly fluent in a foreign language provides many more benefits. As our world becomes increasingly international, the importance of learning a second (or third) language will only continue to grow.
________________________________ Learning a second language will have a powerful effect on your success in business. The ability to transform freely in multiple languages is so important, in fact, that many companies actually offer financial benefits to employees who can achieve fluency. If you are working with the general US population, you will probably see the greatest professional gain by learning Spanish, but almost every language is spoken somewhere in the melting pot. Whether you are a doctor learning to communicate directly with more of your patients or a customer service representative learning to solve more customers’ problems, expanding your language abilities will help your work greatly.
________________________________ Because learning a second language requires such a basic change in ideas, it will provide many intellectual(智力的) benefits as well. Much like studying a musical instrument, learning a foreign language will provide a mental challenge that will increase your intellectual strength in both school and business. This effect is so strong that researchers have found each year of language study results in measurable gains on both college and graduate school exams.
_________________________________ Because we are used to speaking, reading, and even thinking in our native language since birth, we can’t often pay attention to various grammatical errors. When you learn a second language, your study of the foreign language will force you to draw comparisons and reevaluate your understanding of English grammar. Not only will you learn a second language, but you will actually learn to communicate more clearly in your first language!
_________________________________ Traveling either on your own or in a study abroad program provides many opportunities to study a foreign culture and learn to think outside of your own culture’s assumptions. As an English speaker in a foreign country, however, your ability to actually experience the country’s real culture will be fairly limited. By learning a foreign language before traveling, however, you will actually be able to get past the tourist experience to see what the country is really like on the inside. As an added bonus(意外的好处),you can also perfect your language skills during your stays.
_________________________________ Not only will language learning benefit you in the long term, but it can also help you pay for college. Many scholarships are available for students who speak a certain language or understand a particular culture. Because these scholarships are offered to a limited group, you will actually have a much higher chance of winning these scholarships than you would in some of the more well-known programs.
