World languages is the study of languages and cultures. Learners develop the ability to communicate inter-linguistically and inter-culturally and gain insight into themselves and others. They acquire knowledge of the structure and function of languages and societies. Studying languages provides learners with access to the knowledge and skills necessary to function in a global community, marketplace, and workplace.
