We all have a good reason for studying French:  a job opportunity? a career path? Or maybe a romantic date or simply just to please ourselves with no ulterior motives.

Find each week a new good reason to learn the French language.

Reason 1 : French is a world language.

More than 200 million people speak French on the five continents.

The Francophonie, the international organization of French-speaking countries, comprises 68 states and governments. French is the second most widely learned foreign language after English, and the ninth most widely spoken language in the world. French is also the only language, alongside English, that is taught in every country in the world. France operates the biggest international network of cultural institutes, which run French-language courses for more than 750,000 learners.
