i began to study english in the fifth form and by now i have been learning this language for 7 years.

i like english; i think any foreign language helps to understand your own language.

the english language is one of the most important languages in the modern world; more than one billion people can speak or understand this language.

this language is the official language in such countries as the united states of america, canada, australia, new zealand, the south-african republic, india and many african countries.

english is one of the five official languages of the united nations organization.

english is the language of the great english literature.

it is the language of shakespeare, byron and charles dickens.

from the early childhood we enjoy the books by english writers — who does not know winnie-the pooh, sherlock holmes or robinson crusoe!

but the english language is also the language of science — most of scientific magazines in the world are published in english. it is impossible to be a good scientist without knowing this language. that is why i pay much attention to english and i hope that in the future i shall know this language well. 

переклад: я почав вивчати ійську мову в п’ятому класі, і до цього часу я вивчаю цю мову протягом 7 років.

я люблю ійську мову і думаю, що будь-яка іноземна мова є зрозуміти свою власну мову.

ійська мова — одна з найбільш важливих мов у сучасному світі; понад один більйон людей можуть говорити цією мовою чи розуміти її.

це офіційна мова таких країн, як сполучені штати америки, канада, австралія, нова зеландія, південно-африканська республіка, індія і багатьох африканських країн.

ійська мова — одна з п’яти офіційних мов організації об’єднаних націй.

ійська мова — мова великої ійської літератури.

це мова шекспіра, байрона і чарлза дікенса.

з раннього дитинства ми насолоджуємося книгами ійських письменників — хто не знає вінні-пуха, шерлока холмса і робінзона крузо!

але ійська мова — це також мова науки: більшість наукових журналів у світі ійською. неможливо бути гарним вченим і не знати цієї мови. саме тому я приділяю багато уваги ійській мові і сподіваюся, що в майбутньому я буду знати цю мову добре.
