In my childhood I had a very good memory.

I could read a long list of German words only once, and then I was able to repeat 45 of these 50 new words.

Unfortunately, we lose our memory with age.

Now I read 50 new French words and can repeat maybe only 5 of them.

And I have to read them many times even to remember half of them.

But we can train our memory.

I believe we must train our memory all through our life.

If we don’t use our memory, we shall quickly lose the ability to recall events and names or not at all.

And learning languages is a very good practice for our memory.

That’s why learning languages is not only interesting, but also very useful for all people.
