​In recent decades, there has been intense research interest in the role of foreign languages ​​in international business. This is normal, considering the fact that, although business has always been to some extent extroverted and internationally oriented, the globalization we have been experiencing since the end of the 20th century has brought new challenges for business, including "language challenges".
