Why is there a need of language? My God, it's obvious why we have language! Try telling someone how to build a house with just yip, squeak, moo, bark, growl and grunt. Also, I hear they have thousands of monkeys at typewriters, randomly banging away in the hopes that they write all the great classics. What purpose would they have then? Also, what would talking parrots have to say? I think you'll agree that these are all solid reasons to have language. Seriously, mankind developed language thousands of years ago - how we still don't know. It must have help in our survival, because man has become the dominant species on the planet. Whether that is a good thing or not can always be argued.

OMG people! Why the rudeness!!!!!!!! I think what Santosh is asking is why are you learning a language other than your native tongue and not why do we need language in general. Sheesh.

Because we live in a glabalizated world where we need to interact with different people of many countries in some cases make bussines with important foreign enterprises , the technology advances day to day for example we purchase things made from another country ,to read the guide manual we have to speak the language besides it help to be more comunicate with the exterior.

why not?
