Dlaczego ludzie uczą się obcych języków. (why do people learn foreign languages?)

There are many languages in the world and there are many reasons for learning them. Nowadays the knowledge of foreign language is very important and useful.
It is human nature to broaden horizons and to explore new things - that why people study foreign languages.
We could learn them to meet new people and to get to know different cultures. For some people learning foreign language could bring self - confidence and satisfaction.
The next advantage of learning other language is that you can go abroad and study in a foreign country.
But I think that the main reason for learning foreign languages is the opportunity to find a well - paid job. You can work for big business companies, you can be a translater, a diplomat, an ambassador or a tour guide. You may also go abroad and work as a press correspondent.
The knowledge of foreign languages, especially English, is very useful and necessary in international trade and industry. Many young people take into concideration the speed of the world’s development and possibility of meeting people who speak different languages and they decide to learn them.
What’s more? Young people learn foreign languages to provide themselves with good future and welfare.
When people travel around the world it is better for them to communicate in local language because they can find out more about the place they visit and the culture of the country they are in.
There are also cases when students are forced to learn other languages by their parents who want them to have a better life.
Next advantage of the ability of speaking foreign languages is that people who live in countries divided into a few regions which use different languages could understand one another, for example: in Switzerland or Canada.
I think that foreign languages are worth learning because you never know what will happen. For instance: when somebody emigrates it is good to know the local language because it helps to adopt - meet friends, get a job and so on.
Learning other languages could be also a good pastime. You can learn them if you want to impress somebody or if you want to read foreign press, prose or poetry in original version.
