French Language

While most consider English as the most accepted international language of business and society, there’s never been much substance to the fact. Most widely spoken language is based on the population, like Chinese and Hindi. However when one travels abroad neither Chinese nor Hindi come in use. Hence, what is it that one as an International traveler or business man do?

In today’s times, where smart phones have language translation apps and there are ample ample translators on the internet, does learning a new language bring in any better state for a business man.

One can explore the city, market and other products for one’s personal business benefits without crutches or dependencies.
