FOR and AGAINST ESSAY - Emma Ballestero


“Speaking two languages has obvious practical benefits in an increasingly globalized world.” What are these benefits? What are the main advantages and disadvantages of being bilingual?”

Today, more than half of the people who live in the world speak more than one language, especially English. Being bilingual is mainly a good thing, although it also has some negative aspects.

The positive part of mastering more than one language is that it favors every person who travels to another place where the original language is not the same as that of the person; So, you can travel without thinking that communication is going to be the main problem. It is also something very good and that is taken into account when looking for a job.

However, globalization is also making many languages ​​originating in certain countries lose importance and may end up becoming extinct. This is a big delay since language is one of the things that make the difference between different countries.

In short, bilingualism is very beneficial when it comes to communication and when looking for future projects, but also very damaging if this second language is given more importance than the native one, since this can trigger the disappearance of this.
