It is true that several languages are dying out nowadays. Some people argue that the less languages are, the easier life will be. However, I disagree with the opinion. Thus, in this essay, I will discuss both sides of argument and give reasons for my opinion.
People who say the phenomenon is not important have valid reasons for saying so. They argue that if there are fewer languages in the world, we can communicate easily with people from other countries, other cultures and other backgrounds. because we just use a language that we know. Moreover, we don’t need to learn other languages to contact with foreigners. It can save our times for studying other languages and it would be more convenient.
However, I believe that it is a serious problem that languages are in danger of becoming extinct or have already disappeared. Languages are concerned traditional culture. Because people have been using their language for a long time, the languages contain their culture. When languages die out, they also lose their culture about their languages. For example, in my country, there are many traditional songs. When we sing traditional songs through Korean, it has true meaning. It is impossible that other languages express traditional songs completely. Moreover, languages help people to have their personality. Countries have their unique characters. As languages have a great effects on establishing their personality, if there are fewer languages in the world, the unique personality of country can be disappeared.
In sum up, there are many reasons that languages should not disappear. Languages are playing important roles in the world. Thus, we should protect our languages from dying out. |
