Word of the week: Gobbledygook
'Gobbledygook' means nonsense. Example 'you're talking gobbledygook!'

Being from the UK I always remember years ago that I thought it was amazing if I met someone who could speak more than 1 language! This is from my own experience living in the UK but perhaps it was a lot more common in other countries. These days there are a lot of people that speak more than 1 language and many even speak 3 or 4 languages which is great news.
I have noticed in applying for jobs, employers are no longer looking for just 1 extra language but are asking in many cases for applicants to speak 3 or 4 different languages, this is making it very competitive for people to find work. Living in a tourist area this is especially the case!
Not only are people learning other languages to help them find work but also to help them whilst travelling abroad. I think it is fantastic when people make an effort to learn a bit of the lingo when going abroad even if they are only going on holiday! I was very impressed with a friend recently when she started coming out with lots of Greek words when we were in a Greek restaurant, I had no idea she knew any of these words (perhaps the ouzo helped)!
So whether learning to show off to the waiter in a restaurant, to help you on your travels, to find work or perhaps for a completely different reason (please share with us!) then LanguageLinker are here to help!
