Living in a country where you have to speak a foreign language can cause serious social problems as well as practical problems To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement

Sometimes, people have to live in a country that require them to speak in nonnative language. There is a view that this situation may cause significant social and practical problems. I completely agree with the view that having to speak in foreign language will cause significant social and practical issues.

Firstly, the social issue will most likely to occur because language holds important role in communication. All people use language to express what they want to say. Thus, if one does not master the language where most people use, he will most likely be isolated from any social group. This can happen everywhere, including in workplace and in neighborhood. As a result, he will feel stressful as a result of the lack of socialization and being isolated from the social circle. For instance, a guy from United States just moved to Taiwan where people mainly communicate in Mandarin Chinese language. Because he does not understand Mandarin Chinese, he finds difficulty in blending in with the local people. Consequently, he feels isolated and stressful because he can not socialize well with the people around him.

Secondly, the practical problem will happen because language is used everywhere in a country. Every activity, ranging from simple to complex, involve using language. This can be buying public transportation ticket, ordering menu to understanding public announcements. Thus if one does not understand the language that is used in the country, he will experience practical problem, because his daily activities are hampered. For example, a guy from United Kingdom just migrated to Japan, where almost everything is written in Japanese. Because this guy does not understand Japanese, he finds obstacles in doing his regular activity, including purchasing MRT ticket to ordering food in a restaurant. He faces practical issue because his regular activities are hampered.

In conclusion, I completely agree that residing in a country where people have to speak nonnative language may cause both social and practical issues because language holds important role in communication and language is used everywhere in a country.
