THE PLACE OF ENGLISH IN THE WORLD

Abstract

There are more and more language learners around us, especially young people. Wherever you look, you will see English language courses, offers and announcements for training courses. Moreover, for a time in history, Latin was revered as the language of science and politics. In the meantime, French gained a similar status, and from the 17th century onwards, Britain established dominance over many countries in the world, and English began to become the language of trade across the seas. In the area where the well-known East and East India companies have entered, the population has become accustomed to the English way of life.
