Reasons for Learning A Second Language

To a common extent, languages are used as wheel-drives for measuring intelligence, effort, and qualities of characters, yet less people have no knowledge of two languages for both general communication and professional interactions. Back to ten years ago, I made up my mind under no guidance to learn English in my small, shabby village, Kandal province. Though I was not well taught, I have set clear goals for opting English as a second language; I wished to be a university professor of a foreign language like one of my distant uncle on my mother side. This dream has always been the horizon that I've ever wanted to chase after everyday of my life. Society and experiences told me that English is a language of interest, intellect, power and global preference. A junior high teacher of English taught me that if I were to pursue my high dream of great intellect and wisdom, I would have to study English language in order to climb those long stairs of my imaginary intellectual journey. By now, I am fully aware and testify such truth. Numbers of international colleges and universities, spread across the globe, use English as a medium language. Billions of books, articles, journals, periodicals, and other written achieves have been written and published in English and distributed around the ball (Globe). 

What is more, English has played the spearhead mediator in the sphere of cyber, on-line, and various form of electronic products and literature. For example, since 1960 the exploitation of internet communication has advanced levels of communications across the oceans and borders, and has integrated English in billions of written and audio-visual resources. In the same veins, as I’ve always dreamed to obtain Ph.D. in language philosophy, English has become the right option for me to grip. Besides, I also agree that English becomes a language power when learners are capable of synthesizing and creatively expressing themselves. Generally speaking, language productions are the measurement of intelligence and reliability.
