Why Study Languages? A World of Meaning Beyond Words

Language is the road map of a culture. It tells you where its people come from and where they are going, according to famous American writer Rita Mae Brown
Studying languages helps you do more than learning to speak; it teaches you to listen, empathize, and connect across geographies. In a digitally shrinking world, being multilingual is like holding a master key as it unlocks doors in journalism, international business, academia, diplomacy, publishing, tourism, and even artificial intelligence.

For example, of Arpita Guleria, a language graduate from Delhi University works as a German translator with BMW in Munich. Or Prerna Butalia, who teaches French in Bangalore and also is freelance French to English translator. Their journeys began in classrooms and transformed into global adventures.

Course Choices to Speak the World’s Tongue

From French in Jawaharlal Nehru University to Mandarin at Visva-Bharati University, and from Urdu in Aligarh to Sanskrit in Banaras, India’s language programs are as diverse as its dialects. The most popular options include:
•    Foreign Languages: French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, and Arabic
•    Indian Classical Languages: Sanskrit, Pali, Tamil, and Prakrit
•    Modern Indian Languages: Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Urdu, Malayalam, Kannada, and many more. 
Admissions to language programs often go through CUET UG/PG, individual university entrance exams, or 12th-grade merit.
