Haven!t you noticed that you have become smarter sinceyou started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.

It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills. “Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible,“ he said, "You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four.
