What's the linguistic landscape of Europe?
Spanning 47 countries, Europe hosts an impressive 225 indigenous languages. Many of these languages share remarkable similarities, yet they comprise just about 3 percent of all languages globally. Among the most widely spoken languages in Europe are French, Spanish, German, English, and Italian. Embracing a new language brings forth numerous advantages. Beyond expanding communication horizons, it opens doors to enhanced career opportunities. Moreover, language acquisition contributes to mental agility, refining memory, argumentative prowess, and problem-solving skills.
So, why wait? Join us and immerse yourself in inspiration with music, entertainment, and a variety of activities - all related to the languages of Europe. And who knows, you might just decide to embark on your own language-learning journey.
Happy European Day of Languages! Don’t miss it!
