Benefits Of Learning A Second Language

by Martin Gray Writter Learning an additional or second language has a number of advantages. Earlier, people use to think that learning two languages can create confusion in mind. It was thought that getting one language right was better than knowing two. Some also believed that learning two languages could cause dual personality or schizophrenia. But, all these are just myths and new researches have shown that there are amazing benefits of learning a second language. Studies have shown that bilingualism delays Alzheimer’s disease in people by as much as five years. It also improves learning skills since the brain has to work much harder to differentiate between sounds of two different languages. It has been seen that children brought up in a bilingual environment have a stronger and better memory compared to those brought up with only one language.

They are more creative and are better at solving complex problems. Learning two languages increases their cognitive abilities as well as their creative output. It also helps them to understand other cultures from across the world which increases their global awareness. As children learn a second language, they are able to understand the grammatical similarities and differences between the new and the native language. This gives them a chance to have a firmer grasp on their mother tongue.
