The importance of learning a language
Why learn a language? Well, it goes without saying that you will gain so much more from your new home country if you can make yourself understood! At the very least, you need to be able to shop, ask directions and eat. Further than this, how could you possibly hope to assimilate into the culture if you can’t make conversation with the wonderful people you will meet?
