Cultural and linguistic diversity - this is what distinguishes the European Union, and the languages spoken in the community are an important part of Europe's cultural heritage. There are currently 24 official languages in the EU and each time a Member State joins the EU, the number increases. This diversity is also the subject of a special day in the Community calendar, which is celebrated in all Member States. The aim is to make Europeans more familiar not only with their own mother tongue, but also with the languages of Europe, and to encourage the learning and use of foreign languages in translation and interpretation.
"We are trying to create a festive atmosphere with lots of language games, quizzes, prizes and lots of music. And for all those who will not be able to be there, we offer an online quiz on the European Day of Languages platform at https://edl-bulgaria.eu..
It is open to everyone over the age of 14 from 1 to 30 September," explains to Radio Bulgaria Svilena Georgieva, local representative of the European Commission's Directorate-General for Translation, the organization closest to the European Day of Languages.
