Modern Languages?

[F32]

Ich habe sprache deutsch fur funf jahr und es war prima!

It's hard to grasp - but I think more than half of the world's population speak English and more than 80% have English as a second language.

Pretty dominant because of the British Empire etc.

This amazes me when people say whats the point in a certain subject, as GCSE is a GCSE it will help you get the job over another person.

Also, Its useful in the RAF as you may be posted, and in any job you may encounter and person who doesnt talk english!

I live in Spain, so I am learning Spanish everyday.

¡Hablo mucho! Its a great language to learn. I love the accent and its verrry different to English.

¡Me gusta español!

¿VALE?

There are loads of reasons that you learn Languages at school.
1) The UK is behind EVERY Europian country with learning languages.
2) you can never go wrong when you're learning languages (In later life)
3) If you learn one language its easier to pick up another.

loads more. my school has a poster with 700 reasons ^.^

also, there is less then 5% of the world that speak English
Besides, you don't have to take a language at GCSE level...

I speak Irish here, best language ever!

Yes, thats right every country uses English or atleast can speak it is a world language. You even get countrys where they abandon there own language and take on English.

I really want more Irish people to speak Irish.
