What Global Languange?

What Global Language?

First, Second, or Foreign Language:

In this division of the article the overall lookout of the author is to bring the idea that there are other languages besides English which are much more used quantitatively because of its nativity and because of the vast populations related to it. Also the author talks about all these different languages besides English to bring into notice to all the people who have a misunderstanding by expecting English to turn into the next major global subject of representation and communication. The main reason behind this paragraph is to show the assumptions made about English as a language. I think the assumption is that English is too wide and vastly used all over the world and there is no difficulty whatsoever mostly, but this is untrue and there are as many difficulties as perfection.

The first paragraph is clearly putting its points by addressing that many cultures prefer their own language to speak at home in the United States rather than English, even though English is the main language here. Next she neatly describes "native speaker," by putting it in as a language that a person might have "grown up" with and she is trying to emphasize the importance of one's own mother tongue by giving the example of going to an restaurant and barely knowing how to ask for a dish even though one has learned that language but its not the mother tongue or the first language. Then to prove the difference that is there for English to overcome the various dialects and languages from all around the world she gives some statistics that are mainly more than the "English" numbers. Also following she tells us exactly how people talk their first language at home rather than English because the first language is what mostly everybody speak with their parents. Then she shows how Urdu, Hindi, Spanish, and Arabic population is more than the English speaking (white) population. This fact shows that there are so many people in so many areas that do not know any kind of "complete" language let alone English and there are people who are simply not ready to learn the language because they are very comfortable with their own. Then she explains "second language" in a very effective percept. By giving the example of India: country of the numerous (more than fifteen) languages spoken; she proves her point by pointing out that the official and legal way of the government to handle matters is English. After the convincing example she states a problem where she is talking about how people spend their lives due to career or some other purposes in other countries where English is not the first language and she asks of the status of this special instance and leaves it to there.
