THE IRISH LANGUAGE

 THE IRISH

Ireland is a beautiful country to know, although its language has been disappearing and they speak a second language like English, it is a pity that the people who live there do not speak almost Irish according to what I read they speak currently more English the smaller towns still speak Irish or Gaelic. ireland It has a very beautiful nature, cities and castles all this makes it special so many people like to vacation for the beautiful scenery.

talking a little about their culture and language there are very well-known places like Dublin for tourists who visit the place is the capital and is usually very resorted to because of the beautiful customs found there for example music there are several places on the street where they play or sing freely other parks would be friendly people who try to explain a little about them origins and help you what is necessary so that you can communicate appropriately with people who do not know Irish .

things I would like to do is to see their castles and have people or guides tell me about their origin and the why it became tourist what is their history that I frame the past what event happened in the areas I would really like to learn Irish because it is not the same to have someone translate you to speak it and you can have a conversation and communication fluid to clear all my doubts while they are telling or relating the stories ask them why things, I would also like to climb the mountains and contemplate the beautiful views that always show us the images, as you can see a beautiful landscape in front of the sea, I would go to that place without thinking twice I can go showing the ways and so as not to make the climb eternal talk about their habits and what they usually do when they are in the place and things like that.

THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGE

SOMETHING ABOUT THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGE AND ITS CULTURE

Russian is one of the most widely spoken languages, and we know it through literature and works from Russia. It is widely recognized by those who visit galleries exhibiting great works that have shaped history. Furthermore, Russia possesses a strong military presence; it has been involved in conflicts and develops its own weapons, and it is also known for being a strict country.

Foreigners who visit Russia and see people trying to communicate in their own language are often filled with pride, as their language is very important to them, and they prefer to communicate and express themselves freely in their own tongue. In Russian, there are different ways of expressing time, according to what I've read, and that reflects a unique way of understanding it. This can influence how speakers perceive and organize their lives. That's why it's necessary to learn the basics of the country if you're visiting or living in a country that isn't your birthplace and you know nothing about it. This is why I always emphasize how important it is to learn or verify their customs and, above all, how they use their language, which reflects their identity. Imagine how you would survive if you didn't know their language and had no one to help you translate what you need. If an emergency occurs, how will you explain and communicate the facts? If you use an online translator, it might give you something wrong because you don't know the correct meaning, and there are always bad translations. It's not like having another person communicate in their language and being able to help each other.

THE LANGUAGE THAILAND

THAI.

I like the Thai language and I recognize it when someone speaks it, perhaps because I watch many BL series that air in that country. I really like series and I've been watching them for over 9 years, and I've learned Thai vocabulary. I love it when I can understand them without even looking at subtitles. GMTV, with its few series, has helped me learn part of their language and culture. I say it that way because many of the series are related or have similar plots, so you get used to listening and watching them.

The Thai language is very well-known among foreigners who like Bangkok and other famous cities in Thailand. Tourists travel during Sunkran; that's when they share the most language and culture with foreigners, since many go to the events organized, where concerts are given by local and international artists. There are also people who, during Sunkran, go to the streets of Bangkok to see the other shows the country offers. Thailand has a culture where elephants are highly respected, and in any tourist destination you visit, you'll find something honoring them. Temples are also very popular, and people like to pay homage and speak with the monks who live in the mountains. They treat others with respect and use Thai language. Visitors to the temples must perform their acts of devotion in Thai; otherwise, it would be considered disrespectful to the culture and religion, and the monks are very strict about this. Therefore, if you manage to travel there and make a request or pay homage, it's recommended that you learn the process and the necessary words.

KOREAN

KOREA CULTURE AND KPOP

I love Korean, this language, from the language itself to its culture and traditions, I love everything about this country.

Korea is very well known for its variety of K-dramas and K-pop. I love how many people use Korean to sing their favorite songs and have their idols, and they learn all about their culture to understand what they convey through their lyrics. I'm a fan of ARMY, which is the name of the band BTS. A band recognized worldwide for their music, made up of 7 members who have shown us many things through their lyrics, and most of us who belong to the ARMY fandom have chosen to learn Korean so we can talk to our idols.

I would love to learn the Korean language so I can visit the country and go to tourist places like Jeju Island, the Han River, Seoul, Itaewon, etc. There are many places visited by tourists, and language would be really important because I would love to communicate with them and have the language flow so I can ask and answer various questions about this country and how they maintain their traditions, and if possible, adapt to them. I love their way of speaking, and thanks to K-dramas and K-pop, I've learned some things in their language. I love the K-dramas that have aired, and I always try to watch the series in their original language because I love listening to them. This language really captivates me, and their culture is very beautiful. They show a lot of respect and responsibility from a young age, and they always maintain discipline in the Olympics. I like this country to visit, but not to live in because there are pros and cons.

HINDI

THE CULTURE OF INDIA

We've heard about India for various reasons, but today we're going to talk about how it's a vast country with many different cultures. These cultures are like the colors that beautify India, as people who live there describe them. This is due to the country's cultural diversity, and there are also many languages ​​spoken in India.

Culture and language support each other in welcoming foreigners and sharing their roots. When people in India share their traditions, stories, and cuisine, they also share their words. For example, a festival in one part of India might have special words that other people start using. Or a famous story from ancient times has words that are still important today.

The way people speak also reflects their culture. And the respect you show for the country of India—for example, I didn't understand, but different ways of saying "hello" or "thank you" are used depending on who you're talking to and their age. I was amazed when, in several videos I watched, the subtitles highlighted the greetings, and I had already heard other sounds with different words. But this, which is basic for everyone, should be essential because it demonstrates respect, which is an important part of Indian culture. People who come to visit and don't fully understand the language are recognized by their way of speaking or expressing themselves to locals, unlike those who live there and already know their greetings, and conversations flow according to who you know and with whom you've shared ideas for a long time.

Therefore, Indian culture makes its languages ​​rich and colorful. And languages ​​help keep the culture alive for everyone. It's a wonderful connection that makes India unique.

THE TURKISH LANGUAGE

THE TURKISH LANGUAGE. 

I wasn't going to write about this language, but my friend saw me writing my blog and said, "Have you already written about such and such language?" And that's how I ended up here. My friend loves Turkey. She told me a little about the novels and culture of that country. She also told me something about her language, like how easy it is to pronounce because she's been practicing and knows how to say phrases, or at least I hear her pronounce it well, haha, but only short phrases that she's seen in the novels she likes. And that's how she's influenced me about this language. Unintentionally, she told me some facts about the culture there because when there's a place that attracts you, you investigate absolutely everything, from its traditions, customs, gastronomy, tourist places. By the way, she mentioned a place called Istanbul, and I was captivated by the images. It's like a port, the image she showed me. I'll attach the image here.

Turkey speaks two languages: Turkish and English. People who live there welcome foreigners, and communication with them is primarily in Turkish. They also communicate with locals who live in different parts of the country but reside within Turkey. In tourist areas, there are trained professionals who speak several languages ​​to communicate and provide detailed information about services and places to foreigners. Language undoubtedly has a significant influence in all countries, and as I mentioned in another blog post, it's necessary to learn some Turkish to avoid complications and ensure you don't misunderstand the information provided by locals, in this case, Turkey.

THE PORTUGUESE LANGUAGE

 

PORTUGUESE

The Portuguese language has a very beautiful intonation. I like the Portuguese language. Besides, we relate some words to our native language, which is Spanish. This language is very influential for me in movies and music. Some of us have heard about Brazil and seen movies filmed there that have been a total success, and when we see something in their language, most of us try to deduce what they are saying without needing translators because, as I said, there are words that are related to our native language.

Visitors learn the language to try to communicate when they visit Brazil, and I also think that most will go to Rio de Janeiro, especially during Carnival festivities, which are undoubtedly a total celebration. Many people visit the city, share languages, and enjoy the customs, gastronomy, and other aspects of the city. Without a doubt, this place is a favorite during Carnival because of the spectacle the country offers to its locals and foreigners. Travelers learn most of its history and tourist attractions, and they prepare themselves to communicate respectfully with those who host them.

Language undoubtedly unites us in one way or another, because if we don't use a common language to communicate, we would face conflicts due to a lack of understanding. That's why it's important to learn the language of the country you're traveling to, so that both you and the new people you meet feel comfortable, you can speak clearly, and above all, avoid misunderstandings. This will also allow you to enjoy and learn more during your stay.

THE ARABIC LANGUAGE

 THE ARABIC

The Arabic language is very important for anyone who has ever considered traveling to Dubai. We must have or learn the basics of the language to be able to communicate fluently, since when we travel we will need things and we need to have a language to communicate so that others understand what we need. We also travel to learn everything about a country, so it's essential to learn greetings and the most common phrases that are used and that will be useful to us because, from what I've read, they are very strict about respect and values, and their culture, especially religion and food, is one of the most important traditions in Arabia.

 Therefore, I see an even greater need to know a language and a culture before visiting because these are aspects that seem simple, but if you disregard them, you can have serious problems because what might be normal for us could be aggression or even terrorism for them, due to the bad behavior we sometimes exhibit towards each other. But there, it's different.

I've heard the Arabic language on social media several times, but I don't really retain any words of it.I can't learn the pronunciation because I can't understand how they speak it, but the language has a greatinfluence when we need to talk to people who don't share our language.

THE FRENCH LANGUAGE

THE FRENCH LANGUAGE

The French language is widely recognized for its advertisements for clothing and accessories aimed at all genders; many of us have seen and heard it. French is one of the languages ​​that many of us have wanted to speak, and we've tried to pronounce words we've heard here and there, whether in TV series or music that we've enjoyed and listened to several times. At some point, we've wanted to keep up with the rhythm, or at least that's how I am. I don't know what I'm singing, but I hum the song. I try to sing even though my pronunciation isn't perfect. Who knows what I'm saying when I do it, but oh well, it's fun.

Speaking of French, Paris would be a great place to visit and see the Eiffel Tower, explore its tourist attractions, and talk to locals. This would help our language skills flow. It would be a good goal to get to know and learn about the place at the same time, its customs, traditions, and share information about its festivities during special dates throughout the year and its gastronomy. We too can talk about our own things, show the beauty that exists in my country. When I write and see how we must communicate in the correct language, I just observe how necessary it is to learn a language to be able to communicate with others without having someone next to us translating, and so that when we share our information or receive information, it isn't something incorrect. But well, we're not going to delve into the topic of translators and guides, but how wonderful it would be to travel and learn more about that country, especially its language, because their speech sounds so beautiful, and the way they sometimes sing, the rhythm, is simply perfect.

THE JAPANESE LANGUAGE

JAPANESE THROUGH SERIES.

The Japanese language is something many of us have heard, especially teenagers who are fans of anime and series that continue to shape our lives.

This country has produced many great series that have been seen and recognized worldwide, enjoying great popularity in the entertainment industry. Many people love reading subtitles and listening to anime in its original language. I love watching anime and reading manga, although others hate reading and prefer to translate everything into their own language. 

Well, it's a matter of personal preference, but I do feel that watching series dubbed in my own language would take away all the value of the series. Besides, by watching series and listening to the original language, I learn words that, well, maybe I won't use because I don't have any friends who know Japanese, but I'd save them to tease people, and if I ever find someone, I'd put them into practice. Of course, they might not understand me, but I'd try to use their language out of respect or the basics I've learned, like greetings and other things that are always seen in series. By the way, nobody cares, but my favorite anime is Dragon Ball, and my son also likes series. It's a hobby I share with him. We enjoy the free time I have to watch various anime that are currently airing. I do make him read subtitles so he can absorb the words. To be honest, I'm fascinated by Japanese. I love listening to how they speak; their accents really catch my attention, and I'd love to learn this language too. Maybe later on, but right now I'm focused on English and I'm too lost to start another one.

For example, this video below is subtitled in English, but it's in the original Japanese.

CHINESE LANGUAGE

CHINESE CULTURE.

   Chinese culture is very well known. Those of us interested in the language and culture know about the traditional Chinese New Year festival, where beautiful activities take place and an animal is chosen to represent the birth year of those born that year. This tradition is very important to them, and people interested in this festival travel to see the spectacle the Chinese put on. Besides enjoying these wonderful things, it's also good for us to go there because we'll learn a little more about them and also practice what little we know of the language. Remember that we study a second language and know about it, but we haven't exactly focused on its grammar itself. We just put to use the knowledge we've learned or absorbed from series, movies, or people, and from classes we've taken that will be useful at some point. "Well, the time has come to use it after so many hours in front of the phone and TV watching series; we have to put what we've learned to use!" jajaja (Sorry, that was a joke; if you didn't get it, I'm not going to explain it).

A curious fact I heard some time ago, and which I've also experienced, is that if people spend a lot of time with others, they tend to learn significant things from them, for example, their language. Many of us can learn phrases or some commonly used words, which helps us communicate with them without any communication difficulties. I love the Chinese language, and I find their culture fascinating. I've only shared information about the Chinese New Year, but there are many more beautiful festivals, and it's a pleasure to learn more about them.
