English has become the international
language. In most countries around the world, you will be able to find somebody
speaking English. Here are a few of the reasons why it is a good choice to use
English internationally rather than any other language. First, among all the
Western Europe languages, English is definitely the easiest. It is much easier
than French, German, Spanish, or Italian. Its grammar is not too difficult but
allows people to express themself very precisely. Then, if we look at the Chinese
language, even though it is used by a great number of people, it is only
located in China when English speaking countries are spread all over the world.
Furthermore, Chinese use specific characters that are not universal at all.
Finally, it is evidence now that English has imposed itself as the
international language. Though this happened through the big British Colonial
Empire, then through the growing influence of the United States since World War
2, using English nowadays cannot be considered as a political act, and doesn’t
show any acquaintance with the US. As a conclusion, I would say that we should
be grateful to be able to communicate efficiently with so many different
people, thanks to the English language.
