There are a plethora of reasons to learn a language besides your mother tongue. It might just be for work or because you moved to a new place and knowing the local language was simply a necessity. But learning a language can also just be fun! A language is at the core of any culture. What words are used, what words are not used and why tells you about the history, traditions and habits of the people speaking them. Words convey emotions, thoughts, ideas. They are the glue of society.<\/p>\n

And languages go beyond words. Gestures and facial expressions are also a part of this. From famous Italian gestures<\/a> to Indians shaking their heads in agreement with the head bobble.<\/p>\n

In this way, languages enrich you. They give you new ways of expressing yourself, perhaps in ways that you had never before experienced. I feel different speaking English, Dutch or German; each language has its own flow and vernacular that influences how you think and feel in them.<\/p>\n

So no matter if learning a foreign language is a job requirement or a fun side project, it is certain to engulf you in an entirely new world!<\/p>\n
