Speaking a foreign language is like playing a musical instrument

Speaking a foreign language is a lot like playing a musical instrument. You produce sounds you wouldn’t normally make, and these sounds follow specific rules, forming meaning when combined correctly. Your audience listens and interprets the sound you create.

What’s amazing is that both allow for creativity. You can express deep ideas and emotions through these beautiful mediums.

Honestly, I’m not sure—I’ve never tried. But chances are, they’re more alike than we think.
