The Language integration of foreigners
Nikolova, Daria ; Čabanová, Bohumila (advisor) ; Jelínková, Marie (referee)
Diploma thesis "The Language integration of foreigners" deals with the disadvantage faced by foreigners who do not speak the language of the majority. Language incompetence keeps immigrants in socially marginalized surroundings and often helps to create their social segregation. Language barriers have negative impacts for foreigners not only in social but also in economic fields. Without language knowledge immigrants are not able to use their qualifications in the Czech work market and usually are forced to carry out jobs with little or no qualifications. I consider managing the language of the majority to be the most essential element of integration in their host country. Without language knowledge no person can become a part of the society. Poor knowledge of the langue of the majority ties them and does not let them to live a decent life. This may seem as an individual handicap however it could become a problem of the whole society. That is why it is important to discuss this issue and find right solutions, which would motivate immigrants to learn the language of the majority and help them to integrate in to society.
