Conversation Summary
Children often see learning another language as boring, and only do it because it is something they have to do at school. As we get older the idea of learning a foreign language can become much more appealing for different reasons. It may be to experience different cultures, to communicate with different people, get more job opportunities or another reason.
Sometimes people learn a specific language because they need to and sometimes they choose to learn a specific language because they want to. Nowadays, with modern technology, it has never been easier to start learning a foreign language.
