Some people think that learning foreign languages is a waste of time and money.
Every modern human must know and learn foreign languages.
However, there are plenty of people who believe that is not necessary.
I don't share the above - given view.
In my opinion, studying languages of another countries is momentous, significant and essential element of the life in the 21St century.
Indeed, nowadays employers have high requirements for their future workers.
The one of claims is knowledge of a foreign language.
Usually it is English or German.
Secondly, many people like travel.
But the lavk of the local tongue may spoil a trip.
Tourists feel fumblingly themselves in a stranger country.
They can't understand the life in an unfamiliar area because they don't know the language of country of their holiday.
Moreover, there are a lot of cheap and fast methods of learning foreign languages.
For example, if you don't have any time, you can study English or another language with native speakers on Skype.
Some opponents of researching tongues of another part of the world might contend that it is useless and pointless.
They convince that Russians don't need foreign tongues in normal life.
That may be true.
But the Russians Federation wants to be like the European countries and the United States of America.
However, it is impossible without approach our citizens to the European standarts.
The knowledge of foreign languages is the one of this norms.
All things considered, nowadays an enlightened people must have an education in a different areas of knowledge including foreign tongues.
