Language is never a barrier but an open arena to express, to communicate and to give voice to voiceless.
Therefore, it's not a language of alphabets, word formation but a whole lot of cultural diversity which can result into the feeling of:
• Morality
• Respect
• Unity
• Dreaming
• Culture
• Co-operation
• Leadership
Team building
Conversant
Visionary pathway to success
Breaking barriers etc

Learning language is a great opportunity to inculcate the values and skills in a person or ourself. When you start learning a new language you start acting like a River, which moves according to the passage, takes all new things with it, making its way down with out stopping anywhere and so on. We can list those all qualities down as follows:
1. Empathy - Learning language can built the ability to understand and share.
2. Patience - Language learning requires alot of patience for a long time and one has to be ready for the critical feedback as well.
3. Integrity - One has to have the attitude of Integrity as you are welcoming all new words and impression in your expression of thoughts. It reflects the behavior too.
4. Versatile - Knowledge of different languages makes you Versatile in terms of speaking, it builds your Versatile nature too, where you make yourself ready to act out on account of gaining more.
5. Acceptance - Wherein language requires to be learnt when you are ready to accept all new words , letter and so on , as a river do. This new quality adds on to your attitude towards people as well .
6. Endurance - On receiving the critical feedback from the language facilitator, the learners have to endure what so ever is feedback is , with positive attitude. This attitude helps them further in their social and personal involvement to act wisely. This behavior is just similar to an athlete too who endures all the pain to gain.
7. Broader outlook - Of course learning language couldn't leave you with out making your outlook Broader, when you are absorbing all new ideas , words, letters , values , the regional impression of that language and so on. Just like a river , when other water bodies get added to the main stream it becomes a larger one in itself and requires a broader space to flow.
Thus, Learning language is a complete and a complex journey in itself like a river has its journey. The adaptation makes you empowerd with a new language, which helps you to grow like a strong person with holistic development.

Dr. Tarun: Thanks for sharing. But, I am not sure if language learning has built me to be more empathetic or I have not learnt the language properly.

Mrs. Ruchi Jain: There is nothing wrong in having different views. We all have different perspectives. For me '9' it's a nine, but for other person it's a six. We would like you to pour out your views as well about language learning experiences and developed attitude by it.

Learning different languages is stepping stones of success. Students are fastinate to learn.
They want to speak with their peers to expose themselves. All the values they adopt as they learn. Specially in our country we are blessed with many languages.
The students who come from abroad, they value the morals and practice. Our native students are blessed with this.
Also if they find particular language is easy they understand the concepts and explain in their own words.
Language lab is really an attractive place as of science lab.
They enjoy the theatre the most and now it is a part of NEP.
Since the students come from different areas they also explore to learn the skills by speaking the language.
Also all the four skills which is required for all the subjects are developed. Hence learning any language is will make every one to explore and helps us grow .

Proficiency in different languages not only open up new doors but also works as the vital skill to engage with the world in more creative and better way.
Some of the benefits i feel learning different languages are:
1. Increase cultural awareness- it brings us closer to other culture and brings open mindedness.
2. High cognitive abilities - many researches are being done on people with multilingual abilities connecting it to higher cognitive abilities.
3. Creative thinking capacity- It enhances creative thinking ability by understanding things in native language and visualising it.
4. Opens up better job/career opportunities - the world becoming Glocal (Global yet local) increases the chances of bilingual people for having better career, connections.

Learning different languages is an art. There are people who are able to learn any language very easily, happily and comfortably but on the other hand there are many who find it very difficult to learn a different language. Whether we are talking about our regional languages or foreign languages, it may help us to have a better and wider view of the place and limit the barriers between people.
Employers are seeking professionals who can communicate well and can convince their customers in their language .
Language skills also lead to higher salaries. With your language skill you are ahead of the crowd.
Greater understanding of languages promotes greater tolerance and acceptance of others. One feels more confident conversing with someone in their native language.
