Hi everybody! Welcome back to Top Words my name is Alisha, and today we're gonna

To-infinitive

be talking about 10Reasons to Learn English. So these are some ways that you

Modal verbs - A2

can respond to the question "why are you learning English?" Let's go!

I love the culture and the people who speak the language.

Oh, why, thank you! Maybe choose or know which culture or which kind of English

You are the kind of person who wants to go too many different countries

and you want to be able to speak to the people in those countries, presumably english-speaking countries,

I want to open my mind and become more international.

If you live in a country where, you know, the culture

there's maybe just your home country's language, and just your home

country's culture, and there's not a lot of mixing, as there is, for example, in

America. Maybe use this phrase with your co-worker, with your family members to

say I want to, maybe, change my mindset a little bit, i want to explore things

beyond this culture, beyond this language.

I want to understand my favorite songs, movies, and TV shows

I want to understand my favorite songs, movies, and TV shows.

This is a really really popular reason for learning another language. I think not just English

but if there's a TV show, a movie that you really really like, and you want to understand it

and enjoy it on another level, you can try to understand it in the language that the movie is presented.

In this case, in English. I think it's a really fun motivation for learning another language.

If you're the kind of person or if you have

the kind of job that requires you speak to people from other countries, English

might be really really useful for you. So you can say the language is useful for

my job, or I need English for my work, something like that.

I'm learning the language to impress someone.

This could have many different meanings, maybe it means you're interested

romantically in someone and you want to impress them, maybe that person

is a native speaker of English, and you think, oh I want to learn English to

Fine! Great! Honestly that's a really good motivation for learning another language

is one thing to be able to speak fluently to that person in that language

great, like that being said, i don't know that i would say i'm learning the

I live next to a country speaking that language.

Maybe you share borders with an English-speaking country

learning English could be useful for you, or fun for you

I want to speak to my partner's family in their language.

So maybe you and your partner share a common language

and you can communicate together, but maybe your

partner's family does not have that same common language. you maybe decide i want

to learn some of the language, so that i can communicate with my partner's family.

If it's part of your university course, or if you're required to learn a language in

your university or high school, other school, you can say it's part of my

university studies, or I have to take a language. That's a phrase that we use, a

phrase that we use in my college, i think, i have to take a language.

Don't forget that i have to take a language, or I have to take english for

The next expression, very positive! It's just I love learning languages.

I just love learning languages, maybe you're  the type of person who just really really is

interested, and you can say i just love learning languages, i think it's really

So those are 10 reasons that you can give if
