international language. English is needed as the main and the most
efficient means of information exchange. With the acceptance of English
as the international language of technology and commerce appears a new
generation of people who know why they are learning the language.
Scientists and scholars need it to keep up with developments in their
fields. Many students need English because their course of studies
includes textbooks available only in English. Young people around the
world need English in order to be able to use the Internet, communicate
with their partners in other countries, understand films and songs. It is
certain that English will be the language of business, diplomacy and
international relations. Most educated people speak English fluently.
The following are a few of the many reasons why English is so
widely spoken.
• English is the official language in many of Britain's former
colonies, such as America, Australia and New Zealand.
• The economic power of Britain in the 18th and 19th centuries, and
of the US in the 20th century, helped to make English the language of
world trade.
• Entertainment has helped to spread the use of English, because of
the worldwide popularity of English-language films, TV programmes and
pop music.
