Up-to-date world consists of variety of different countries, cultures, and languages. It is believed that English is the main international language. Almost every school teaches English in addition to the students’ native language.
Definitely, this has a number of advantages such as communication with foreigners, reading books or watching films in the original dub. However, the question arises: why has not society picked out one global language yet?
To start with, culture is a very significant part of every country. Knowledge of your history broadens your horizons and made up prosperous outlook on life. Moreover, it seems to be some case of identification for a nation. Each resident of selected countries has own mentality and way of thinking, which distinguishes them from others. Language is supposed to be one of the main component of culture. It reminds us literature and songs, which were written by older generations.
By the way, namely former chronicles and books give us an idea about the past of our country. On the other end of spectrum, if all people had chosen only one global language, it would have helped us to keep contact in much easier way. For instance, even journeys around the world will have simplified, it will be quite simpler to find a common language with everyone. Additionally, we will have access to any type of information because of absence of a language barrier, which will have made education system more convenient. Government negotiations will be holding in more comfortable way for every country, what may help to find a mutual decision quicker and more peacefully. Establishing a global language seems to have a profound impact on the majority of society classes. The one disadvantage, which can be a real issue obviously linked to loss of national identity. Nevertheless, maybe in the future, a way will be found to get through this drawback.
In my opinion, it is very beneficial for each country, if in the future society agrees on such daunting prospect. Otherwise, we should find a balance between saving cultural diversity and simplifying language barriers.
