English As A World Language
No language in history has ever dominated the world quite like English does today.
Until fairly recently, the history of English was very similar to that of other global languages: it spread through a combination of conquest, trade, and colonization. But then, at some point between the end of WWII and the start of the new millennium, English transformed from a global language to a universal language.
So, do we still really need another ‘world language’? I think English is ready to take that position but is the world ready for that?
It's a fact, even the half bell can make himself understood in English.
