Tại Sao Chúng Ta Nên Học Một Ngôn Ngữ Mới?

I am a bilingual, which means I can speak Vietnamese and English. Right now, I am learning Española. I have a few Spanish tutors, who make my learning experience more interesting because I not only learn a new language but also a new culture.

Learning a new language can be fun if you make it fun. On the other hand, it can be boring if you let it be. In this post, I will tell you benefits of learning a new language. It may motivate you….

1. You can go straight to people’s hearts more easily.

Nelson Mandela once said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.” This is totally true. If you do not think so, go to Vietnam, and say a Vietnamese sentence to Vietnamese people then you will see. They will give you big smiles and may give you a discount if you buy something.

2. Your brain will be happy.

You must remember a lot of new words, grammar, phrases, pronunciation, idioms, etc. when you learn a new language. As a result, it helps to enhance your memory. Furthermore, it improves your critical thinking skills because you must think in another language.

3. Your “wallet” will thank you.

Learning new languages allows you to talk to more people and build a network. Building a network means you can have opportunities that other people do not have. I can be an example. I know English and Vietnamese at this moment, so this website has these two languages. Automatically, my visitors are from Vietnam and English-speaking countries. If I did not know English, I would be unable to approach to people who can speak English. My audience would become smaller, so I would not be able to help a lot of people. Think about this. If you are doing business, and you know Spanish, how many countries do you think you can approach by knowing this language? I must say A LOT. You not only expand your business in Europe but also in South America. Of course, more customers means your “wallet” will become bigger.

Now you know the reasons why you should learn a new language. It is time to determine what language you want to learn. Then, check out this post to discover where you can learn.
