Learning Foreign Languages

Some people think that learning foreign languages is a waste of
time and money.


     In today`s world with the increasing globalization more and more
people are learning foreign languages. On this case some people assume 
that the knowing any foreign language plays a considerable role now. 
Whereas others believe that it is not worth studying it.
     In my opinion, a person should know some foreign languages. Firstly,
nowadays when global ties among countries are developing, one
should study a foreign language to obtain a well-paid, prestigious job.
Secondly, the knowing foreign languages is necessary while
travelling. And a person will not feel uncomfortable because of lack of
the language barrier.
    On the other hand, there are those who consider that a person does
not have to learn any foreign language. In their view, if you learn it, 
you waste of money. Moreover, studying a foreign language takes too 
much time.
    Nevertheless, I totally disagree with this a viewpoint, because there
are many sites in the Internet where you can acquire the knowledge
of a language. Also a person can study a language while getting to
work.
     In conclusion, I am strongly convinced that a person needs know 
foreign languages. It is a significant advantage for everyone.

FLL (Foreign Language Learning)

Some people think that you can master the language only if you
study it abroad, in the native speaking environment.


     Nowadays many people believe a foreign language can be studied
independently (on one’s own) and it is not necessary to live abroad,
but others totally disagree with this point of view and I can understand
them.
     In my opinion, a language can be completely mastered if you only
have lived abroad. First of all, if a person is going to study a language
abroad, he/she will learn it much faster, communicating with native
speakers. Secondly, life in another country gives a chance to
immerse in traditions, history and habits of another country and to
understand better their way of life. Finally, life abroad allows people to
communicate with the natives and understand their pronunciation.
     On the other hand, a number of people argue that studying abroad is
a waste of time and money and it is not worth going there. Besides,
they claim people should find a good teacher and learn a language
with him/her.
      I do not consider these arguments really crucial because people will
never gain a language experience in their own country. A person,
who really wants to know a language and understand it on a perfect
level, will never regret spending money or time on his/her hobby.
     In conclusion, I am totally sure that the best way of learning a foreign
language is to live abroad and communicate with native speakers.
