Can you be fluent in 5 languages?
A monolingual speaks only one language. Only three percent of people around the world can speak over four languages.
Less than one percent of people worldwide are proficient in many languages. If someone is fluent in more than five languages,
the person is called
a polyglot.

What about me? I can speak in 5 languages that’s why I am telling and also demonstrating to
everyone that learning
foreign languages is the best way to show yourself & to be able to communicate with anyone.
Yes, I am a polyglot, four years ago I started learning Chinese with Turkish language. What about my English
language, I
started it when I was seven years old, while studying Chinese I thought that I need IELTS certificate and decided to pass IELTS
(International English Language Testing System). Then I started to improve my English from intermediate to upper & even
advanced…
Fabulous people & polyglots.

There is a problem about understanding and learning foreign languages in our country. If the citizens are not able to learn
foreign language, for ministers and diplomats it is more important, however they do not want and they are not going to start it
because of their age. We have explored the main reason of this highlighted issue and now, readers are ready to get it.
7 out of 18 ministers of the country do not know English. Among them are the Minister of Education and Science of the
Republic of Kazakhstan AskhatKanatovichAimagambetov, the Minister of Information and Social Development Aida
GalymovnaBalaeva and the Minister of Finance YerulanKenzhebekovichZhamaubaev, who speak only Kazakh and Russian.
Minister for Emergency Situations Yuri ViktorovichIlyin speaks only Russian.
According to the researchers, one of the reasons why 7 ministers of the country do not know English
at once is training in
domestic institutions.
Today, the study of English in Kazakhstan is at a fairly low level.
In the 2020/2021 academic year, the share of students of higher educational institutions studying in the state language
was 64.9%, in Russian - 29.6%, in English - 5.5%.
The low level of English proficiency in the country is also confirmed by international rankings. Thus, in the ranking of
countries in the world in
terms of English proficiency, Kazakhstan entered the top ten of the weakest outsider states, ranking
92nd among 100 countries. The level of English language proficiency in the Republic of Kazakhstan is marked as "very low".
Relationship Building
Having the ability to speak a second or third language transcends spoken dialogue and allows you to relate to different
cultural groups in a personal manner. Speaking to anyone in their own language breaks down barriers and allows them to feel
more comfortable and confident.
This type of relationship is necessary for any business setting. Knowing your client’s native language will elevate their
professional and business relationship which can lead to better business results. However, unless we are in
an environment with
multiple languages, it gets difficult to practice a foreign language. Therefore, language exchange apps, like Bilingua allows
anyone to grasp and understand a new language through conversation with a native speaker from your phone.
Appeal to Global Companies
International companies tend to widen their reach across the globe by hiring candidates who can blend in seamlessly with
other cultures and fill the communication gap between them and their clients. Through learning a foreign language, the fluency
will give you the opportunity to become a global employee.
Don’t forget that learning a foreign language like French or German is a fun and enjoyable experience. It might be tough
initially but will only get better with practice as you can even opt to learn French online from the comfort of your home. [2]
Among the reasons for this poor knowledge of the English language are the low level
of education in the country, as well
as the relatively underdeveloped tourism industry.Overtaking Kazakhstan in this ranking, for example, such countries as
Uzbekistan (88th place), Syria (87th place), Azerbaijan (86th place), Afghanistan (79th place), Mongolia (78th a place)Improving
comprehension abilities of human with learning languages
The platform says that Learning a foreign language also helps you to improve your comprehension abilities as your brain
has to not only learn new words but also understand them. ... As a result reading and understanding exam vocabulary becomes
easier and correcting written work such as essays requires less effort. [3]
