learn a new language
especially one most useful for working with minority groups in the uk! 2 months ago

I want to learn to speak another language, but I have not decided which.

I am looking into careers related to social work which involve working with vulnerable or minority groups in the uk. What would be a useful language to learn? What is the largest minority group in the uk, perhaps that would give me an indication of what would be the most popular second language to learn in the UK. Arabic perhaps? Urdu? Any suggestions anyone? I know Spanish is popular and I alreayd know the basics but I’m unsure how useful that would be to have for a career.
