SDLC 105: Learning Journal #9

[Tia McArtis]

After reading these articles, it has made me jealous of people who are bilingual. Being bilingual does not make someone particularly smarter knowledge-wise, but being bilingual makes it easier to adapt and make decisions quicker since people who grew up with two languages are used to switching languages very easily. It also makes it easier to learn other languages since the connections made while learning language are already regularly used unlike in monolingual people. Since I love languages, I wish it was easier for me to learn and maintain other languages like it is for people who grew up with two languages. It would also make it easier for me to quickly make decisions since I am very indecisive.
