Indonesia as we learn English as a second foreign language is not a
language, but what harm we should learn a foreign language because
English is one of the international languages. Many of us have had the
experience of learning a foreign language itself, and including me. When
I exchanged views with the many friends who say that learning a foreign
language is easy but it takes understanding. Obtained from some
opinions I took some friends argument which says that learning a foreign
language through the culture. Culture in question is the everyday we
study literature or TV programs and is concerned with culture. As said
by Nicholas Ostler (2001): Empires of the Word "Most people in the world
are multilingual, and everybody could be; no one is rigorously excluded
from another's language community except through lack of time and
effort. Different languages protect and nourish the growth of
different cultures where different pathways of human knowledge can be
discovered, and they certainly the make life richer for those who know
more than one of them ".
on the other hand that is studying
English literature found friends learn English through literature is
something that is not common anymore because of the insight into their
literature students will more easily understand the English language
through the media such the statement by Charles Blatchford (1972) " The
study of English literature is a luxury that cannot be indulged during
the limited amount of time allocated to English "
