Bilingualism & Multilingualism: A New Perspective to Language Learning

As perception begins to increase in a child, early language acquisition seems much like a natural process. From broken sounds to fumbling words, and then to sentences, a kid finally learns how to express his thoughts and emotions. With time, curiosity grows and a person stumbles upon new languages around him. As he starts exploring the world around him, he realizes that he is not only becoming proficient at another language but is also starting to learn about various other cultures. Globalization has played a major part in connecting people across the world. Before globalization, the exchange of language, culture, education, facilities, and thoughts in general, were never so prevalent. With Globalization at full speed, multilingualism has made a huge impact on a person's well-being. Multilingual people tend to be more open to what the world has to offer. They tend to have a more positive outlook of their surroundings, are free from prejudices, and are able to accept people, culture, and traditions as beautiful happenings on earth.
