Everybody Should Speak a Second Language
Language is one of the most important things in human history. It is a way to help people communicate and understand each other. It is where the individual meets the rest of society in common ground. As of now there are roughly 6,500 spoken languages all over the world. Each language offers a unique meaning and uses different techniques to describe the world around people.
