5 Reasons to Learn the French Language

French flag

When it comes to learning a foreign language, French might not be the first pick that comes to mind – but there are plenty of reasons it should be.

Keep reading for an in-depth look at the benefits of learning French as a foreign language.

1.   It’s Spoken by 300 Million People

With over 300 million French speakers spread out across five continents, French is the most widely learned language after English. In fact, French is the official language for 29 different countries, including Haiti, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, and Monaco. Not to mention, French is the only language that gets taught in every country in the world (besides English).

French is also one of the six official language of the United Nations.

Learning French is a lot like having universal currency that works everywhere  – regardless of where you travel, understanding French will always work to your benefit.

2.   It’s Useful for Traveling

Speaking of traveling, learning French is always a good idea if you’re planning to visit the language’s country of origin, France. France ranks number one as the country with the most tourist arrivals – and for good reason.

Whether you’re planning to gaze upon the Eiffel tower or stroll through the Louvre museum, learning French is essential for navigating through the country and it’ll connect you to the culture in a whole new way.

3.   It’s an Asset in the Job Market

In the job market, understanding a second language (besides mother tongue) can give you a serious edge in Singapore or abroad – but it can also depend on the language.

However, learning French is an incredible asset for the job market. Not only does it give you the ability to talk to 300 million people if you need to, but your employers are less likely to see French-speaking skills pop up in other candidates. With many MNCs, French companies are established in many countries and Singapore itself can count many of them such as BNP Paribas, Total, Airbus Industries, Louis Vuitton…Having French on your resume will give you an advantage that the competition may not have!

Good news, French toast language center offers a course that all Singaporean can enroll for using their SkillsFuture credit.

4.   It’s a Great Base Language

If you’re the kind of person who has ambitions to be trilingual or even quadrilingual, French is a great place to start – especially if you’re looking to understand other romance languages (like Italian, Spanish, Portugese, or Romanian).

5.   It’s Fun (and Easy) to Learn

As far as learning a new language goes, French is definitely on the easier end of the spectrum. Unlike Mandarin or Arabic, there’s not a new alphabet to learn. And, for English speakers, learning French may be even easier since a lot of the English vocabulary comes from the French language.

Take a French Course Today

There are more than enough reasons to take a French class  – whether you’re looking to impress future employers or you’ve just dreamed of visiting Paris, why not start your French course today?
