DESCRIBE A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO LEARN You should say:
what the language is
where it is spoken
what you think would be difficult
and what would be easy about learning the language
and explain why you would like to learn it
Sample answer
(Introduction)
A language that I would like to learn in Korean.
Or:
I will now tell you about my favourite language besides English - it’s Korean for sure.
To me, it’s an interesting language with a lot of culture behind it. Also, Vietnam has a very close relationship with Korea, so I believe it will really help my future.
(Body)
I doubt it would be really challenging for me to learn Korean because it is not a Latin language, which is totally different from my mother tongue. Korean uses its own characters in its writing, so I would have to get familiar with its own alphabetical system. There are a lot of hard tones and stresses, too so it would be time-consuming to master Korean, but I think I will get a grasp of it gradually by following various lessons on Youtube. As well as this, I will enroll on a Korean course at a reliable centre. I will also get a good textbook that summarizes all essential vocabulary and grammar. I think Korean vocabulary would be much easier for me to acquire than their grammar because I have heard that learning grammar is extremely frustrating.
The reason why I really want to be fluent in Korean one day is because I am so in love with its adorable sounds. I myself actually can pick up some common phrases through a lot of Korean dramas and K-pop songs.
I bet it would be easy to find a language partner or join a language exchange club to practice Korean because the number of Korean tourists visiting Vietnam has been on the rise and there are many Korean people staying in Hanoi now.
You know, knowing Korean in combination with my English skills can give me a competitive advantage in the not too distance future and it undoubtedly would make my future holiday in Korea more enjoyable. On top of that, I would be such a great feeling to be able to watch Korean movies without Vietnamese subtitles.
(Conlusion)
All in all, Korean is definitely a handy language worth knowing!
