Unemployment is defined as a situation where someone of working age is not able to get a job but would like to be in full time employment. It is the state of being unemployed and also the rate of such unemployment. (Merriam-Webster Inc., n.d.).Illiteracy can be termed as the state of being illiterate. Should people have not received education or if they have not risen within healthy and appropriate condition in terms of cultural level. Illiteracy has many serious effects on individuals as well as society such as unemployment together with loss of language and culture.
In the first place, unemployment can be viewed as the most remarkable outcome of
illiteracy. There is a strong connection between unemployment and illiteracy. If
the numbers of uneducated people increase, it would not be much of surprise to see
that unemployment is perhaps going to grow in coming times.
Another reason is it is as important as one is loss of language and culture. That
is to say, it can obviously be claim that illiteracy is likely to give way to loss
of language and culture. Illiterate people do not speak as much as other people,
they cannot have information about religions and beliefs. Moreover, people cannot
be aware of wealthiness of their own culture and language.
The conclusion to be drawn would be that unemployment as well as loss of language
and culture roots from illiteracy. Education has constituted the backbone of a
healty society. Thus, If the previous governments had taken more severe steps about
education, the level of illiteracy would not have been so high.
