A foreign language is a whole new intricate system of rules, structures, and lexis. Learning a new language means your brain has to cope with complexity as it makes sense of and absorbs new patterns. As our brains work out the meaning, endeavoring to communicate, we develop key learning skills such as cognitive thinking and problem-solving. Highly developed critical thinking skills are a significant benefit both personally and professionally.
外语是一个由规则、结构和词汇组成的全新的复杂系统。学习一门新语言意味着你的大脑必须在理解和吸收新模式的过程中应对复杂性。当我们的大脑理解意思，努力沟通时，我们便发展了关键的学习技能，如认知思维和解决问题。高度发达的批判性思维能力对个人和职业都有很大的好处。

Use it or lose it. How many times have you heard that phrase? It is a simple fact – the more the brain is used, the better its functions work.

This means that multilingual people have brains that are more exercised and quick to recall names, directions, facts, and figures.
