Foreign language in the life of modern man.

You can’t imagine an educated person who doesn’t know any foreign language. It is especially important nowadays. Some people learn languages because they need them in their work, others travel abroad, for the third studying languages is a hobby.

Every year thousands of people go from one country to another either on business or for pleasure. And the knowledge of languages opens the door to any foreign country and gives them a possibility to communicate, to understand people and to be understood.

A real professional cannot do without knowing languages, especially English as it is international language. You don’t need to know Japanese when you go to Japan or Hindi when you visit India. English is spoken all over the world. You can hear it everywhere: in the street, in the shops, at restaurants.

A modern engineer or even a worker deals with instruments and machines from other countries. He must be able to read the instruction which is usually written in English.

Diplomats need foreign languages in their work too. They make contracts, conclude treaties, held negotiations. If you want to be a stewardess, a pilot or a businessman you must learn English, the language of international communication.
