Learning different lingos isn’t just about memorizing and learning to pronounce the words properly. It is a social activity which allows you to make friends and actually understand each other with every word stated. It breaks you away from having to say “What?” or “Can you please say it in English” because you actually understand the language and the best part is, you can respond to the person you’re talking to using their language.

In line with the first one, other languages can serve as you and your friend’s secret code while talking. You’ll be able to talk about personal stuff while other people don’t have a clue of what you’re saying in the first place. It can be your own form of privacy and you won’t have the fear of having anyone eavesdropping.

STUDYNow that you’re familiar with your chosen second language, studying in a foreign university will not be a problem anymore since you know their language. The only thing you need to prepare and focus on is your budget and all the important documents, including your visa and copy of grades translated by professional translators in Singapore, Australia or in any country you would prefer.
