“The English language is a universal language in history, way more than the Latin of Julius Caesar.”
Language barrier is the biggest hurdle to establishing any kind of relation among each other. Language is the medium through which people communicate and share their knowledge and emotions with others. Without a common language among all the nations it will be extremely difficult for the nations having varied cultures, ethnicities and languages to make themselves understood by others, discuss issues on education, politics, trade or business and make an advancement in any field. Even for immigrants who move to other countries in search of better jobs and opportunities, find themselves like a fish out of water if they do not know the native language of the place and are unable to speak in the language.
English – the language of international communication
The need for a common language is quite essential. English has become the universal language of communication and is being used by most countries as their primary language of communication. It is a widely used language for communication and in the coming days the language will get more popular, thereby increasing its importance; therefore, if you are looking for a better future where you do not lag behind and can keep up with the rest of the world, then knowing the ways of communication in English is a must.
English as a lingua franca
English language has turned out to be the global lingua franca, and the ubiquitous language of communication among the non-English speaking nations of the world, hence knowing the language and the ways of communication via different mediums has become an absolute necessity to survive in this world. Moreover, in terms of business, every small and big company, especially among the non-English speaking nations, who are engaged in or are looking forward to be associated with international business, deals and communication, need their workforce to fluently communicate in English.
English is the dominant language of science and research and on the Internet, almost all websites are written and created in English. Therefore, whether you are travelling, for work or leisure especially to foreign destinations, going for an interview or a business meeting you can always seek the help of English, the international language that will help you in dealing with diverse people and places. It is often said “catch them while they’re young”. Therefore, to allow and help the next generation to learn fluent English, admitting your children in schools where the medium of communication is English, will be your first step towards helping your child have an active social life, being confident and even secure his/her future.
