The Role of Foreign Languages in the Life of Modern Youth
In modern society, learning a foreign language is one of the most important moments in the life of a successful modern person. Knowledge of at least one foreign language broadens one’s horizons and allows one to get to know better the culture and customs of other nations. A foreign language is not only a means of communication, but also a condition for successful interaction between people and countries all over the world in conditions of economic, political, military and cultural integration.
A foreign language gives a huge advantage in the modern world for any person. Knowing the language of any other country or nationality, you open yourself not only new knowledge, but also a new culture and even a new world. After all, while you learn speech and writing, which you were given to know from birth, you are completely immersed in this language with your head. You learn not only new words, grammar or rules, but also a new culture, traditions and country peculiarities. It broadens your horizons, you become a spiritually enlightened, educated person. You are imbued with the new culture of this country. That is not unimportant in learning any language.
You also get not only new knowledge, but also opportunities. Having learnt a language, you can completely change your lifestyle and your life. Having learnt a new culture, you can move to another country where you will have a new outlook and everything will be different. Especially if that language and its culture is very different from your native language.
Modern people cannot enjoy the latest advantages of civilisation without certain linguistic knowledge. All spheres of our important activities require a certain level of language knowledge.
Foreign language plays an important role in our life. This knowledge is necessary for people of all ages. Foreign language is relevant in all spheres of life. Those who want to get a prestigious education or a job cannot do without it. Employees, who are proficient in languages earn more than employees who are not proficient in languages. This fact can be a great motivator to learn a foreign language at any age.
And if we take the role of foreign languages on a purely physical fact, knowing a language provides a number of great advantages.
For example. Jobs. Many companies provide their vacancies in various spheres of life. And it’s no secret that to get a high-paid and prestigious job you need to pass interviews and a number of other tests. And knowledge of a foreign language will help and increase your chances of successfully passing this stage and the more languages you know, the more successfully you can climb the career ladder and earn good money, and not only.
Besides, knowledge of a foreign language is indispensable when travelling. Even a trivial knowledge of the language is enough to speak fluently in most countries and feel confident and comfortable away from home. I think education can also be included here. As it will give a great outlook and free science, the opportunity to enter various foreign educational institutions.
Politics has become a part of every sphere of life in the modern world, and without it there is no way, a multilingual person can understand and understand more about the political situation, in addition, if he will be as well versed in politics itself, this gives him superiority over others.
In everyday life foreign language is also important, even if not everyone knows it at the proper level, after all, various instructions, names, common materials. And knowledge of the language will help you save time on an interpreter and spent nerves from not knowing so necessary incomprehensible words.
Acquaintances are also a big plus in language learning.
You can say that by learning another language you become a different person, it gives you a tremendous experience of the world. You gain credibility, a good memory and new opportunities. Namely your success. Still I think that the role of foreign language in the life of modern youth is very important. After all, our youth is our future, which means we must be educated. And become qualified specialists. And in this foreign language will help us. Because people have the impression that if you know a language other than your mother tongue, it means you’re a very educated and successful person. After all, from scratch to learn a language just sitting at home can not all and that still something to remember you need some investment. And there is nothing better than investing in yourself and your own education. And it means that by becoming more educated, new moral values will come to you.
