In society today jobs hire more people who are fluent in other languages. Speaking a different language can help us mentally and it can improve our connections with others. We have better ways to communicate with everyone. Having the knowledge of any other language can help us so much in earning money, how we approach situations, and it helps us be more socially and culturally aware. Growing up bilingual, I have the ability to be comfortable in different environments. When I’m at home I speak only Spanish while at school I mostly speak English. Transitioning back and forth between English and Spanish environments has affected me as a person. Doing this constantly helps my brain to have more flexibility with the way communicate with others. This makes it seem like I’m living in different worlds but it’s still the same for me. These environments are completely different but I am able to completely understand and appreciate both of my cultures.
In the long run there is no doubt that being bilingual has given me some advantages. This makes it possible to get a better job, expand our vocabulary, and be able to understand the world we live
