- It's one of the official languages of the United Nations, the European Union, and various other international organizations. Proficiency in French can be an asset for a career in international relations, politics, or diplomacy.
- It allows you to engage more deeply with French culture and heritage, known for its contributions to art, literature, philosophy, fashion, and cuisine.
- It can greatly enhance your travel experience, as it allows you to communicate with locals and immerse yourself in the culture.
- If you know or have an interest in other Romance languages like Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, or Romanian, knowing Italian can be an advantage since they share similarities in vocabulary, grammar, and structure.
