International Mother Language Day is a day when everyone is encouraged to celebrate all the different languages that exist in the world.
You know how you can talk to your friends in your own language, and your teacher can talk to you in the language you understand best? Well, there are lots of different languages in the world, and some people might speak one language at home and a different language at school or work.
On International Mother Language Day, we remember how important it is to speak and learn in our own languages. It's a chance to appreciate the different cultures and traditions that make our world so unique.
Sometimes people might forget about how special their own language is, or they might feel like they have to speak a different language just because other people do. But on this day, we celebrate all the languages people speak and we remember that each language deserves to be respected and appreciated.
