Languages Boost the Brain
There are lifelong cognitive benefits to knowing two languages and
transitional benefits gained during the learning process.
Studies show that at every level, bilinguals perform better in cognitive tests. Children who study a second language do better at logical reasoning, mathematics and English verbal tests. They get better exam results and adults who are competent in more than one language do best in both verbal and
nonverbal intelligence tests.
In old age bilingual people have less cognitive decline than monolinguals. Early exposure to a second language actually causes more connections to grow in the child’s brain and these connections in turn allow for easier learning in both languages.
Creativity, flexibility and lateral thinking ability are fostered by exposure to two languages, as well as improved capacity of the brain to multi-task. Quite apart from all this there are obvious social and employment advantages to having access to two cultures.
