Being bilingual is really and advantage?
The beneficts of being bilingual is that people think automatically that you are a genius!
No...seriusly,they do. They automatically assume you have some super-power brain that is finely tuned to picking up the nuances of every language in the world.
But it depens of people, you can find others who said things like:"Think of the dumbest person you know. They speak at least one language fluently." - author unknown. -.-
For generations, we were told that raising children in two languages would leave them “confused.” The truth of the matter is that bilingualism does not, in any way, harm a child’s intellectual development. In fact, researchers are starting to demonstrate that bilingualism has a number of cognitive benefits
The point here is, that you feel free to create your own opinion, and reflect the next quote:
“Being
bilingual help you to understand that not everyone sees the world in the same
way, being bilingual has made me open and tolerant toward other people and
cultures. I don’t have want to judge but to recognize and accept the
differences that make the world so diverse and fascinating’’
