Learning a language is much more than an intellectual or cognitive task. It is a vehicle for growth and maturation through the experience of other cultures. It broadens our horizons and deepens our personality. It allows us to find new approaches to solving problems because we have known other worlds, enabling us, as Proust says, "to see with new eyes."
