The point of other languages is for a person to reach out and make social and cultural ties all over the world.
It's a win-win situation to learn a new language. First, you open yourself thousands of opportunities and horizons business, academic and social wise to begin with. Then you get to learn different approaches of thinking, as language is directly related to ways of thinking.
If a language uses a form such as Verb-Subject-Object rather than Subject-Verb-Object, this explains alot to the social thinking behind it.
