ENGLISH AS A GLOBAL LANGUAGE
A language is called a “global language” when it achieves the official position and education preference in every nation, that language will finally come to be used by more people than any other language. The essential reason to make a language global or international is the power of its people. The power includes the power of military, politic and economic.
Although English as a global language did not appear until 1997,
it was actually written in 1995, which in 2002 seems a very long
time ago, as far as global linguistic developments are concerned.
The 1990s were a revolutionary decade, in that respect, with a
proliferation of new linguistic varieties arising out of the worldwide
implementation of the Internet, an emerging awareness of
the crisis affecting the world’s endangered languages, and an increasingly
public recognition of the global position of English.
English is universal language. It is the world’s second native language, the formal language in 70 countries. It is definitely the world’s most widely used language. It also very important for whom works in global workforce because English is the language of business in world, so it had become necessary for people to speak English. Another reason for learning English is that many of the world’s top films, music and books are published and produced in English. Therefore by learning English, you will be able to have a great understanding.
The position of the English
language and continues to maintain it today. American dominance and influence
worldwide makes English crucially important for developing international
markets, especially in the areas of tourism and advertising, and mastery of English
also provides access to scientific, technological and academic resources which
would otherwise be denied developing countries.
