Learn English : move your mind

The language determines our way of thinking and even every language offers an only  perspective to perceive the world. Every language is an instrument to know the world,  to make our own personality and to communicate. (Sapir and Whorf – Linguistic  Relativism). 

Learning  a language offers besides fantastic advantages. Learning English develops and  moves your mind and increases your general ability  to learn. If you want an active mind and a witty brain you should study a second or a third  language.

Learning languages is the best way to know different cultures. I’m trying to think in English because it is the best way to learn. Often I have to think in  Catalan or Spanish and then I have to translate these words into  English. I’m working  with three different cultures and three different points of view. 

Learning different languages stimulates you to see the world in a different way and opens your mind towards another reality. When you’re travelling you can  make contact with  new things through your five senses.

If you can get into  that culture it could be  perfect. That’s why I’m learning English, to understand different ways of life.
