Why I Learn English
Why I learn English Learning English is necessary for my future career. Nowadays, practically every prestigious and well-plaid job, not only working as an English teacher, requires proficiency in this language. Those who know English, have a big advantage on the labour-market over those who donââ¬â¢t. But it certainly isnââ¬â¢t the only reason why I learn English. I have been interested in studying foreign languages since I went to school, and I always knew that my future profession would be connected with linguistics. I believe that the mentality of every nation is closely connected with its language.Itââ¬â¢s impossible to translate any text from one language into another without slight changing of its meaning. Every language has some set-phrases and sayings that canââ¬â¢t be translated word for word. So, when you learn to think in a foreign language, you begin to think in a different way. You can see the world from a different viewpoint. To my mind, it compensates the t ime spent on studying the language. One another reason why I study English is connected with general intellectual development. Scientists have proved that learning languages serves as an excellent training for our brain.When a person learns one foreign language, other languages become easier for him or her to learn. On the whole, he or she begins to understand better all subjects, even if they are not connected with linguistics. Moreover, learning English provides me with extra opportunities. For example, I can understand, what my favorite musical bands sing: itââ¬â¢s extremely important for me, as Iââ¬â¢m a music lover. Of course, one can like a song just because it sounds tuneful, but I prefer to understand the message that the author wanted to pass to the listeners. In addition, I can read books and watch movies in the original.Itââ¬â¢s very useful, as the interpretation not always can transmit the richness of the authorââ¬â¢s language, the subtlety of his thoughts. A nother opportunity, provided by the knowledge of the English language, is the ability to communicate with foreigners. I can get acquainted with new people while I travel abroad or just walk in Moscow, and then continue communicating with them in social networks. After all, I just like English: I like the way it sounds, and I find the culture and the history of England very interesting, as they have little resemblance to those of our country.
