In D&C 90:15, we are instructed to “become acquainted with…languages, tongues, and people.” What is the inherent value in studying different languages and cultures?

He also shows how to educate ourselves and our children in a foreign language, and discover which languages may be most useful for the Latter-day Saint scholar.
