English is one of the most important
languages in the world. It can even be said to be the single most important
language. Though other languages are important too, but not for the same reasons
as English is. Why? Maybe because it is the only language that truly links the
whole world together. If not for English, we may not be as united as it is
today.
Modern English is the most
dominant and required international
language of communications, science, information technology, business,
aviation, entertainment, radio and diplomacy. The growing economic and cultural
influence of the United States and its status as a global superpower since
World War II have significantly accelerated the language’s spread all across the
planet.
A working knowledge of English
has become a requirement in a number of fields, occupations and professions
such as medicine and computing; as a consequence over a billion people speak
English to at least a basic level. Though these people might not
have the same accent as others, the language at least will be understandable.
There are various reasons for the
importance of English language. One of which is when we travel to other parts
of the world either for business or personal reasons, without the knowledge of
the English language we cannot be understood. English language helps to deal
with any situation for it is considered as the universal language.
