THE MOST INFLUENCING LANGUAGE IN THE
WORLD
Written by: NN
PEOPLE IN THIS UNIVERSE can’t ignore that English has its
influence, which is so big, for the world. Why does English become an important
language, until it’s included in unwritten list named
“skill-that-should-be-aced” for each people? What is the impact of English for
the world?
People have to know that “Western
Countries” has a major influence for the continuous of human living in the
world. Especially, United States, which is considered as a leader in technical
innovation and economic development. These Western Countries use English as
their official language. Even the small islands, which was formed cause The
Great Britain’s Expansion when the colonial age happened, use English as their
official language. Name it, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, parts of Africa,
India, and else. Or even Germany, Denmark and Netherlands still use English as
their second language.
It can be considered that English has
been spread out, easily and effectively, all around the world. For example,
from science knowledges. The research of science is commonly made by Western
Countries cause they have a great technology which is one step forward, even
one hundreds steps forward, than many countries from the East. Due to that
fact, people know and forcefully accept
that the knowledge and technology which they use is from Western
Countries, and English is included cause the research basically uses English.
Another examples, Western Countries
love an art. They use to have some industries in art. Say, a film industry, a
song industry and else. Which the products from these industries are consumed
and loved by people in the world. Then, automatically, people know and get the
influence of English. Whether is liked or not, English becomes an important
language which is commonly used in the world and important to be known even
aced by people, cause its major influence. Not just cause its influence, but
also the basic of English which uses Alphabet, not like the writing font of
Chinese, Japanese and Thai which is uncommon and hard to be learned (it will
take a long time).
It’s about 600 – 700 million of
people speak in English. It can be concluded, English is common language which
is used by foreign speakers. It becomes a connection for each people. Whether
the purpose is to communicate, to interact, or even just to greet. Take a look
for this example, when the workers from Indonesia want to go for a work to
Saudi Arabia, and the Indonesian don’t know how to speak Arabic, they use to
choose English as the language to communicate with the Arabian. But then, how
if the Indonesian don’t know English and so do the Arabian? They will have no
idea how to speak each other, beside use the moving from their own bodies.
Another examples, at February 17th
2016, there was an ASEAN Seminar about “Japanese Economic Cooperation and
Social Development: Looking for New Approaches”. It was held at Japan
Foundation Hall, Jakarta. In that day, there were so many representatives of
each countries came to the seminar; embassy of Africa, Canada, Korea, Unites
Stated, and others. The native speakers were from Asia, they were Japanese.
Guess, what they used to discuss about the topic! It was English. It’s because
English is commonly used to communicate with foreign speakers. And according to
this example, English is really that important to connect you with
others cause it’s an international language for universe.
Talking about the importance of
English, English is related with human lives. From education sight, TOEFL with
score 500/600 becomes one of requirement to be accepted in abroad universities
out of Indonesia. And also the interview, which is held from university, use
English. It shows that English becomes an important thing to be aced for getting
the best abroad university.

Because with your bilingual skill, you may be employable in every country. You
may get opportunities to get a high-fee and high-honour cause you are useful for
your commercial, especially for international relation (because better
communication improves the quality of your work).
Due to the fact that English is
important, we have to ace English and improve our skill. English may be so
useful for our present even future lives. Don’t worry about your ethnicity,
color, or background, because English is getting free for anyone. It doesn’t
look what you are before, but it will influence who you are now. It may has a
big changes for your lives.
