FOREIGN LANGUAGES There are thousands and thousands of languages in our world, each of which is used by thousands and thousands of people. Every language, even those that seem similar, is unique and has its own history. We know that since ancient times people have formed different cultures and language is part of it. Therefore, by studying foreign languages, we can learn a lot of new things about different countries and people in them. It is not only interesting, but also helps to develop as a person and expand your horizons. But why learn languages when you can just open a translator and use it and you can read the history of a language in your mother tongue? Scientists around the world say that learning languages is very good for health. Our brains are straining, working better. People who learn at least one language are better with logic, they can look at the situation from different angles. In old age, people are less likely to get Alzheimer's and other diseases that destroy our minds if they know many languages. And besides this, learning languages opens doors to many professions and universities in foreign countries. People are very pleased when foreigners speak their native language with them, this helps to build friendly relations. Last but not least, you can teach languages to other people who find it difficult to learn something new on their own. Languages are people and the connections between them. Languages, just like our world, do not stand still, they develop, they take something new from others and throw away the old and unnecessary things.
