In a society of language barriers, ineffective communication and misunderstood messages, it is becoming increasingly important to be able to arrive at common ground with the intention of getting information across efficiently. Therefore, the skill of speaking different dialects is progressively turning into a necessity, especially amongst the youth of today. Through her thought-provoking talk, Ma. Raphaela shares her opinions and personal anecdotes on language learning and how it is believed to be a notable aspect of being human. Having lived in a diverse community and exposed to a myriad of cultures, Ma. Raphaela is constantly inspired to explore the world around her. A foreign language scholar and a fervent learner of new concepts, she aims to familiarize herself with - and perhaps someday master - as many dialects as she possibly can. She strongly regards the importance of possessing an open mindset, particularly being a member of the advancing cultural mosaic that is the modern global society. Having said so, she believes that one way this can be achieved is by connecting with others through the simple means of language. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
