When traveling abroad for business, make the effort to learn some of the foreign language from the country you'll be traveling to. Learning the language of the country your visiting will show dedication and respect for that country and your business. Try to learn phrases that will help you navigate the city or ask for help and then focus on learning some phrases that will be specific to the business you will be traveling for.
The most common reason for being a tourist is to visit a place you have never been before-- if it's a foreign country, tourists go there to learn about the culture, the language, the historical monuments, the museums, the food, and the entertainment that country has to offer. And even if it's a place within the same country (like an American visiting another state that is different from the one where he or she lives), tourism provides a wonderful opportunity to see something new and learn about what that place is famous for.
This question cannot be answered because it is based on an opinion. Some people may agree with living in a foreign country while others may not.
There are plenty of benefits to having a child learn a foreign language such as if you are in that country it will make it easier on them to catch on to what is goingon but in the case that its in the native country and you are learning a foreign language it will be a bit of a hassle as they may not properly develop all the motor skills to speak the native language.
When going anywhere you are not familiar with, it can always be difficult to adjust to. A person can feel anxious and unsure when visiting another country. It helps to learn as much about a place that you can before going there.
The Structure.
It really depends on you, or how fast you can learn things. Some people learn the language within a year, and others take longer.
It is good to go to an English speaking country to learn the language and study.
Learn as much as you can about the country before you visit. By that I mean, learn about the culture, not about mountains and capital cities. Try to learn what you can about non-verbal cues and body language. For example, in some cultures, personal space is greater or lesser than our own,; there may be certain hand gestures that are considered rude; even nodding or shaking the head may be interpreted differently. This is especially important if you are visiting a non-Western country, i.e., not Western European. If you take time to learn, you will find there are many cultural caveats to be aware of. How to dress, how and when to eat and nuances of meal etiquette -- there are many differences in what is considered culturally acceptable. Try to learn at least a few words in the language of the country you will be visiting. Even if you only learn "please," "thank you," "yes," "no," "excuse me" and "where is," and even if you pronounce them incorrectly, it demonstrates that you are trying and people really appreciate that and respond to it. (Well, maybe not in Paris!) Obviously, if you're concerned about communication, the more of the language you know, the better! Understand that you are visiting a foreign country and that not everyone does things the way you are used to. Expect things to be different -- isn't that why you travel? Be flexible. Be open to new experiences. Don't expect everyone to speak English -- although many do, but be appreciative if they do. Don't shout to overcome language differences. Smile. Be charming -- friendliness shows through even when there is no common language. Be a traveler, not a tourist. If you want to communicate and make connections, you can. Keep the "ugly American" cliche in mind and make sure that that is not you!
You usually only learn about the laws of the country you're practising in - after all, it's pointless studying US law if you're working in the UK - Unless you decide to study international law.
Yes she does. All people in a foreign country can learn English from school. She can speak it, but she's not comfortable with it.
Normally you must learn the language of the country in which you live. So if you want to teach the language of your new country, you must learn it before you can teach it. If you want to each the language of the country from which you come, you must also be good and even perfect before you can teach it.
