| 释义 | multilingual (once / 24779 pages) adj Do you speak Spanish or French, in addition to English? Then you are multilingual, which is an impressive and practical thing to be. Multilingual people can speak and/or write more than one language, whether that's English and Japanese, Spanish and sign language, or French and Klingon. Except for the silly example of Klingon, being multilingual is extremely useful — it can help you get jobs and succeed in life, because you're able to communicate with more people. Becoming multilingual is a great goal for anyone. It helps you learn about the world and do more than a monolingual person can.
