It doesn’t matter which language opens up a new world. If your school offers French, Spanish, German or Mandarin, you’re lucky to be setting out on a journey of discovery, empathy & solidarity that multiplies your options & enhances your experiences. Languages make a difference.

European Day of Languages is a celebration of connection. Spanish, Portuguese & French link Europe to Latin America & Africa. Greek & Italian connect you with Europe's past & future. Any language you learn is a new series of connections. Today's a great day to start learning!

#WhyLearnGerman? We've said it before - but a new analysis by @citylit shows that German 🇩🇪 remains the 𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙞𝙣-𝙙𝙚𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙙 second language in UK job ads 🇬🇧, particularly in management, sales & technology. Learn it & jump on that career ladder! 🪜 hrnews.co.uk/research-reveal…

A language goes way beyond one subject in school. You learn history, geography, music, religion, politics, sociology & psychology along the way, & you'll see everything & everybody in a different light. Languages enrich & enable across the board & make a difference to everyone.

This is a great initiative, named after my late mother, to encourage the study of modern languages among young people. Huge thanks & great credit to @TranslationExch at Oxford and the prize’s generous supporters & judges.
Congratulations to all schools, teachers and students!

"People with musical training – whether instrumental or vocal – are better at imitating pitch than someone without that training."

The Flecker Society were delighted to welcome Mrs Johnstone from the Spanish Department who gave a fascinating talk on the playwright Lorca. We discussed his exploration of themes such as repression, honour codes, ‘el qué dirán’ (gossip) and his use of symbolism. @Upp_Languages
