english as a Global LanguageThe talks about globalization and consolidation of the english language providing it with the international status ?\ are not just a kind of idle words for the Europeans. Many questions are still remain unanswered. Is the modern english the best tool for communication between people of different nationalities? Or has it become a threat to diversify the national cultures and languages? Are there other ways to communicate in the global community? Noteworthy is that the term "global" in relation to the english language is used only in english! This fact underscores the uniqueness of the english language. But it does not mean that it should be the same for the world. It is telling that the «global» or «international» english is very different from British english. It turns out that it is not an official language of any European country. At the same time, ironically, the International english segregated Britains in Europe, thus, they seem to have dropped out of the general European context. Most of the Englishmen, due to the fact that they speak universal language, rarely feel the desire, and even less need to learn anyother European language. The need for a common language comes from the ancient times. We can remember the Tower of Babel or the relatively recent attempts to create a common language Esperanto. As history has shown, both were doomed to failure. It's meaningless to discuss the concept of "global english" considering first the simple phrase "english language." There are 3 kinds of english language in the world: english as a native language. english language being a native one reflects the cultural belonging of the people who speak it. The British, Americans, Canadians, Australians, etc. - They all speak their dialect of english. english, on the one hand, combines them, but the local dialect, on the other hand, are distinguished from each other. Thus, the english language, like french, Portuguese and spanish, is not homogeneous. These four languages were shipped from Europe to other parts of the world during the colonial conquest and were destined to get changed in given historical and cultural contexts. The controversy was laid back then: a language that unites english-speaking people from different continents, at the same time, due to its variations provides a barrier between them. english as a second language This category includes local variations of english in countries where it is native to a small number of privileged people. None of the countries that use similar variations, are European: India, Pakistan, Malaysia, thailand, South Korea, the philippines, Nigeria, Uganda, etc. Former colonies used the language of the colonizers, transforming it into the languageofcommunication. In these countries, english has a lot of national characteristics, borrowed from local languages. Onomatopoeic word "tuk-tuk» (tuk-tuk) was invented by the Thais Global english Due to contemporary historical, political and economic situation in Europe, english has become a universal language. Its dominance is so strong that even the eternally resisting France was forced to admit that english can no longer be regarded as a foreign language. History The answer ?gWhy??h, as always, lies in history. english was taken by British emigrants to north america and other parts of the world. In addition, Britain extended its tongue in all the conquered countries, former colonies of the British Empire. Figuratively speaking, Britain handed the cultural and linguistic bridge across the ocean, connecting the continents. The global markets, the global entertainment and the global communication come at an international language. E-mail and Internet are now used worldwide, and it is certainly very convenient, fast and efficient means of communication. People in different countries have to adapt to the language and features of electronic communication that are created naturally by the english language. To communicate in another language, they have to resort to various technical tricks. For instance, adopted in various European languages, diacritical characters can not be used in most email programs, the same applies to non-Latin alphabets (Russian, greek, chinese, japanese, etc.). All these communication innovations shared by people leaving out those who do not understand english. Conclusion In conclusion, it is worth to say, that ?globalization? is a process which can't be stopped or resisted. It erases the barriers between nations, borders, languages. One of the main linguistic instruments of globalization is english. It's quite often spoken wrong, written incorrect used inappropriately, but no one can object to the fact that it's spreading all around the world. Every day, every minute. It's unstoppable. We all were given to this world, we hadn't made it, thus, we did not make english the global language, and it's only up to us, whether we'll catch up with the spirit of the century or we'll be left overboard.
