To some students,it seems that the only foreign language to learn is English. There are,however, nearly 7,000 languages in the world. After Chinese,the language with the most native language speakers isn’t English—it’s Spanish! Learning English is very useful, but it is wise to learn at least one other foreign language, if possible. There are many reasons why people learn a foreign language. Many students choose to study one of the languages that are spoken at the UN,as they think it means better job chances in the future. The UN has six official languages:Arabic,Chinese,English,French,Russian,and Spanish. They are spoken by around 2.8 billion people as their native or second languages. Some students,though,choose to study a language because of family or friends. One
American girl chose to learn Danish because her grandparents were from Denmark. When she was little, her grandpa used to read letters to her in Danish from their relatives in Denmark. Another young lady started learning French because she had several friends from African countries where French is spoken. What do you think? Which other language would you choose to study and why?

English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat. ...We find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but... hammers don’t harm? (Richard Lederer)
