The Future of English as the Global Language Is Assured (Julia)

Many developed countries have English as their first mother language.
Some people disagree with English as the future global language, but I agree with English as the global language in future.
There are some reasons that those people disagree with English as the first language in future.
First, they think the English is not easy to learn because the English words frequently change .For example, the word of ‘toilet’ was meaning of lady’ a large bowl with a seat, or a platform with a hole, which is connected to a water system and which you use when you want to get rid of urine or faeces from your body. But now it is meaning of bathroom for man and woman.
Second,According to Korean, some of them think Korean should be the first language. hey argue that the Korean language is proved as very scientific and practical language.
The last reason is that those people don’t like to study English, and they feel English is difficult to learn.

However, I prefer that English as the global language in future.
There are three reasons why I agree with English as the global language in future.

First, Many countries know how to speak and write English and English has become important of their society.
Many of country have been taught English since they are child.
For example in Korea, from kindergarten to college, it is mandatory to learn English. So we have class of English and exam of English.
Also, in Korea, to get a job, every department required the English degree. That is, good at English means you will be succeed. TOFEL score and TOEIC score is biggest thing that it is included in the resume. If it doesn't include or doesn't get a good score, they are not selected by employer and they lost the job they want. So it is very important in our society.

Second, Many changes in English make people learn English more easily and fast.

The last one, America is the strongest country among many other countries in many ways.
Nowadays, English is the most of part of our lives. All over the world, we can easy to find English anywhere. For example, in Asia such as China, Japan, South Korea, they prefer English at the signboard instead of their own language. Also, English is the international language of diplomacy, business, science, technology, banking, computing, medicine, engineering, tourism. And these day is global world, it is important for economy to export or import product. But they should trade with only English which is official language.

In Conclusion, although many people think English cannot be the global language in future, but I believe English will be the global language in future. Because, English already become one part of our lives. Without English, we cannot hang out these days. People learn English now because they believe English will be the global language.
