ENGLISH, AN INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE
Why learn English?
Because English is the most international language in the world.Some facts prove that:English is the international language of air and sea travels, of computing, of pop music, of politics, of science,and medicine, sports,TV and films.
The world today is a very small place.Communication and travel are extremely quick: think of jet planes, satellite TV,tellephones, telex and fax, the internet, for example.
Because of this,we need a common language, and this language is English.
English is the first language in:
Australia,The Bahamas,Canada, Ireland,Guyana,New Zealand The United Kingdom, The United States.
An it is the official second language in many other countries such as: India, Nigeria,South Africa, Israel...
English is slowly becoming more than one language, because in every country it is spoken there are differences in some vocabulary words, in some grammatical structures.
