Q5. 
People have long been interested in having one language that could be spoken throughout the world. Such 
a language would help to increase cultural and economic ties and make communication between people 
easier. Through the years, at least, 600 languages have been proposed, including Esperanto. About 10 
million people have learned Esperanto since its creation in 1887, but English, according to specialists, has 
better chances to become a global language. 
Q6. 
For linguists across the continent, the 26th of September is a time of celebration-it is the European Day of 
Languages. The aim of the day is to focus on encouraging people to start learning a language. They take 
part in events celebrating learning and speaking other languages and consider the benefits that language 
learning can bring. 
Q7. 
The suggestion: “Languages are learned, they are not taught” is very productive. A new term “self-access 
work” is not homework, it is class work; another one is do-it-your- self. So, it is the person who learns, the 
teacher who only helps, assists, trains learners to be more responsible, motivates, involves everybody into 
the learning process, encourages them to speak and promotes discussions.
