Are you for internationalization of English?

With the rapid development of economic, international exchanges becomes more frequent. For a while, English, the most widely used language in the world, becomes a topic of debate. Some people believe that English becomes a cultural invader and constitutes a threat to other languages. But other people take an opposite side. They firmly believe that it plays an important role in international communication. As far as I am concerned, the latter opinion holds more weight.

First of all, English is the one of the most widely used languages in the global. It is everywhere in everyday use and understood by all or virtually all. It becomes an official language and a role of cultural ambassador. It will not only help us understand the world, adapt to the world’s latest trend and rich cultural knowledge, but also communicate with people of other countries conviently. What’s more, the benefits of international-llization of English is conceivable that we can absorb foreign advanced culture technologly and spread the outstanding culture of our country to foreign countries. Last but not the least, it will contribute to improving trades and increasing revenue.

However, many people see English as a cultural invader such as the threat to the native language and the erosion of traditional culture.

For good or ill, every coin has two sides. Likes many things, English is at times a blessing and at times a curse in our globalizing world endangered diversities.The users of the world’s language should seek to benefit as fully as possible from the blessing and as far as possible avoid invoking the curse.
