The European day of languages is celebrated every year on the 26 September.
The day of languages is an initiative of the Council of Europe, Strasbourg, with events and activities for youth taking place across Europe.
Europe Direct NI was invited to run workshops in schools in Enniskillen, Omagh and Derry to share the importance of languages with nearly 500 pupils.
Workshops took the place of their usual language classes and pupils took part in quizzes and explored the languages used in the 28 EU member states.
