Expectations of UNMSM students regarding the study of English as a foreign language

Keywords: Foreign language, English, Students

Abstract

Peru is a multilingual country where Spanish, Quechua, Aymara and a large number of Amazonian languages are spoken. Some of these languages are acquired by certain groups as their mother tongue or first language and others learned in the second term constitute the second language of the speakers. The number of speakers of indigenous languages as a first language has varied, with Spanish having the highest number of speakers, due to the fact that it is used both as a first language and as a second language in our country. These languages, as such, fulfil a series of functions in the daily lives of our inhabitants.
