‘The knowledge of language is the doorway to wisdom’

Published on: December 29, 2019 11:45 PM

'The knowledge of language is the doorway to wisdom'The accent does judging and English is a language of attracting the accent. We all want to hear those who speak this language, but consider it hard to speak in it sometimes.

Everything that you enjoy becomes accessible for you and the same is the situation with language. We consider English a dignified language and it is proper because all we seek is in English.

Living in a surrounding where people recognize only those who have a grip on English linguistics makes others feel degrade about themselves.

It is not about understanding it is about competence. If you have plenty of thoughts, and you can’t express them just because you don’t have speaking talent of English, thus that point becomes questionable for you.

English measures literacy rate of an individual. It is applicable only for non-native speakers. Intelligence is a word compared with linguistics knowledge in our surrounding. If one is shy and can’t communicate effectively, thus he is considered dumb, so having a conversation becomes strong with an inter-culture person.

Intellectual concepts are in everyone’s mind, so it is just about conveying. As English is a universal language, it has grown into the basic need. It is pointless to point out that all of our basic levels begin with English. To live in this generation, one has to have a grip in English. Those who speak English are treated well-educated and broad minded. It is a language of British, and we all have a clear idea about the progress of westerns in every field. Take the example of CSS, which is the most competitive exam in Pakistan. In this exam two compulsory courses are of English, so that means there is no option to deny the importance of English, and those who pass this exam especially these subjects of English are considered Intelligent.

English is just a language, but it is a means towards doing everything. If you are intelligent and can’t communicate in English to convert your thoughts, raise yourself in this field. Even the digital media is in English language rather than any other language, so we must consider this language.

We ought to celebrate, not think little of, what others can do. Each individual is canny in his own specific manner. We complete each other. We need people like John Cena to show us the degree of physical power, however we likewise need individuals like The Beatles to, as is commonly said, tame the savage brute in us. We need individuals like Thomas Edison and Albert Einstein to make progress in innovation, yet we likewise need individuals like William Shakespeare and Nicholas Sparks to make us swoon. Envision how dull this world would be without Romeo and Juliet and The Notebook!

Learning a second language is not that much challenging. Push yourself to look at it and trust me you will do. Everyone can do it. It is not about skill; it is an effort putting process.
