  The study consists of a theoretical and a practical part. Relying on the relevant literature and
  the practice of the world’s developed countries, the theoretical part outlines the social
  problems arising as a result of the increasing life expectancy. At the same time it seeks to find
  possibilities of solutions to these problems. It clarifies the notions of ageing and retirement
  age, Life Long Learning, and within this, the beneficial health effects of language learning. In
  addition, this part of the study introduces useful forms of activities that make sense and have
  meaning late in life. The empirical part describes the results of a survey made in Miskolc
  before the conference of gerontology in November 2017.
