As the countries and areas that speak a language grow and decrease in power, the language becomes either more or less widespreadremember that Latin and French were the most widely used languages in Europe as late as the 19th century. I think English is currently powerful because of America’s central position in global affairs. Hopefully, in the future, Esperanto(世界语)will be the accepted second international language!!! From TTanya on 2017-02-26 20:10:28 I also have been wondering about the future of English as the world's Lingua Franca(通用语.I was thinking that maybe Chinese would overpower English as the dominant world business language. But it appears that the Chinese government is actively promoting English to their public school students. So maybe, if China becomes the next world power, English will remain the current Lingua Franca under Chinese influence. From Mymunkee on 2017 -03 -06 00:38:03 Esperanto is the only language of which there are no ethnic (种族的)ties, and it's a million times easier to learn than English. The idea of making everyone learn “your language” is socially dominating and can only result in dysfunctional(紊乱的)international relations. From Recata on 20 -03 -20 21:49:44 |
