Importance of the English Language

Summary: A look at the importance of English in India and the world.

A language is a systematic means of communication by the use of sounds or conventional symbols. It is the code we all use to express ourselves and communicate to others. It is a communication by word of mouth. It is the mental faculty or power of vocal communication. It is a system for communicating ideas and feelings using sounds, gestures, signs or marks. Any means of communicating ideas, specifically, human speech, the expression of ideas by the voice and sounds articulated by the organs of the throat and mouth is a language. This is a system for communication. A language is the written and spoken methods of combining words to create meaning used by a particular group of people. Language, so far as we know, is something specific to humans, that is to say it is the basic capacity that distinguishes humans from all other living beings. Language therefore remains potentially a communicative medium capable of expressing ideas and concepts as well as moods, feelings and attitudes. A set of linguists who based their assumptions of language on psychology made claims that language is nothing but habit formation . According to them, language is learnt through use, through practice. In their view, the more one is exposed to the use of language, the better one learns . !ritten languages use symbols "characters# to build words. The entire set of words is the language s vocabulary. The ways in which the words can be meaningfully combined is defined by the language s syntax and grammar. The actual meaning of words and combinations of words is defined by the language s semantics. The latest and the most advanced discoveries and inventions in science and technology are being made in the universities located in the $nited %tates of America where &nglish language is the means of scientific discourse. The historical circumstances of India "having been ruled by the 'ritish for over two centuries# have given the Indians an easy access to mastering &nglish language, and innumerable opportunities for advancement in the field of science and technology. (any Indians have become so skilled in &nglish language and have won many international awards for creative and comparative literatures during the last few years. %ometime ago, an Indian author, Arundhati )oy, won the prestigious booker pri*e for her book +The ,od of %mall Things-. .er book sold lakhs of copies all over the globe. /ver the years, &nglish language has become one of our principal

assets in getting a global leadership for books written by Indian authors and for films made by Indians in &nglish language. A famous Indian movie maker %hekhar 0apoor s film +&li*abeth- has got several nominations for /scar Awards. It does not re1uire any further argument to establish the advantage &nglish language has brought to us at the international level. &nglish language comes to our aid in our commercial transactions throughout the globe. &nglish is the language of the latest business management in the world and Indian proficiency in &nglish has brought laurels to many Indian business managers. &nglish is a means not only for international commerce2 it has become increasingly essential for inter3state commerce and communication. In India, people going from 4orth to %outh for education or business mostly communicate in &nglish, which has become a link language. 0eeping this in mind, the 5arliament has also recogni*ed &nglish as an official language in addition to .indi. All the facts of history and developments in present day India underline the continued importance of learning &nglish in addition to vernaculars. %ome of the states of India are witnessing popular increase in public demand for teaching of &nglish language from the primary classes. )eali*ing the importance, recently, the (inister of Indian )ailways, Laloo 5rasad 6adav, demands teaching of &nglish language in schools. The great demand for admission in &nglish medium schools throughout the country is a testimony to the attraction of &nglish to the people of India. (any of the leaders, who denounce &nglish, send their own children to &nglish medium schools. (any of the schools in the country have &nglish as the sole or additional medium of instruction. A language attracts people because of the wealth of literature and knowledge enshrined in it. &nglish poses no danger to Indian languages. The Indian languages are vibrant and are developing by the contributions of great minds using them as their vehicle of expression. &nglish is available to us as a historical heritage in addition to our own language. !e must make the best use of &nglish to develop ourselves culturally and materially so that we can compete with the best in the world of mind and matter. &nglish language is our window to the world. &nglish language is one tool to establish our viewpoint. !e can learn from others experience. !e can check the theories of foreigners against our experience. !e can re7ect the untenable and accept the tenable. !e can also propagate our theories among the international audience and readers. !e can make use of &nglish to promote our worldview and spiritual heritage throughout the globe. %wami 8ivekananda established the greatness of Indian view of religion at the world conference of religions in 9hicago in :;<=. .e addressed the gathering in impressive &nglish. (any spiritual gurus have since converted thousands of &nglish people to our spirituality by expressing their thought and ideas in masterful &nglish. &nglish has thus become an effective means of promoting

Indian view of life, and strengthening our cultural identity in the world. !hen !illiam 9axton set up his printing press in London ":>??# the new hybrid language "vernacular &nglish mixed with courtly @rench and scholarly Latin# became increasingly standardi*ed, and by :A::, when the Authori*ed "0ing Bames# 8ersion of the 'ible was published, the educated &nglish of London had become the core of what is now called %tandard &nglish. 'y the time of Bohnson s dictionary ":?CC# and the American Declaration of Independence ":??A#, &nglish was international and recogni*able as the language we use today. The /rthography of &nglish was more or less established by :ACE and, in &ngland in particular, a form of standard educated speech, known as )eceived 5ronunciation ")5# spread from the ma7or public schools in the :<th century. This accent was adopted in the early FEth century by the 'ritish 'roadcasting 9orporation "''9# for its announcers and readers, and is variously known as )5, ''9 &nglish, /xford &nglish, and the 0ing s or Gueen s &nglish. ,enerally, %tandard &nglish today does not depend on accent but rather on shared educational experience, mainly of the printed language. 5resent3day &nglish is an immensely varied language, having absorbed material from many other tongues. It is spoken by more than =EE million native speakers, and between >EE and ;EE million foreign users. It is the official language of air transport and shipping2 the leading language of science, technology, computers, and commerce2 and a ma7or medium of education, publishing, and international negotiation. @or this reason, scholars fre1uently refer to its latest phase as !orld &nglish.

IMPORTANCE OF ENGLSH: In todays global world, the importance of English cannot be denied and ignored since English is the most common language spoken everywhere. With the help of developing technology, English has been playing a major role in many sectors including medicine, engineering, and education, which, in my opinion, is the most important arena where English is needed. Particularly, as a developing country, urkey needs to make use of this world!wide spoken language in order to prove its international power. his can merely be based on the efficiency of tertiary education. "onse#uently, English should be the medium of instruction at universities in urkey for the following three reasons$ finding a high!#uality job, communicating with the international world, and accessing scientific sources in the students major field. he first reason for why English should be the medium of instruction at universities in urkey is that it helps students find a high #uality jobs for students to find. In business life, the most important common language is obviously English. In addition to this, especially, high!#uality jobs need good understanding ability and speaking in English. herefore, companies can easily open out to other countries, and these companies generally employ graduates whose English is fluent and orderly. %or e&ample, the student who is graduated from a university which takes English as a major language will find a better or high!#uality job than other students who dont know English ade#uately. In other words, the student who knows English is able to be more efficient in his job because he can use the information from foreign sources and web sites. 'e can prepare his assignments and tasks with the help of these information. herefore, undoubtedly, his managers would like his effort or prepared projects. In addition, many high!#uality jobs are related with international communication and world!wide data sharing. (niversity graduates who are in a international company and business are needed to communicate with foreign workers. %or instance, if their managers want them to share the companys data, they are e&pected to know English. )oreover, they will even have to go business trip for their company. *bsolutely, all of these depend on speaking English+ as a result, new graduates have to know English in order to get a high!#uality job, and the others, who dont know English, may have lack of communication and be paid less money. he second and the most important reason, for English to be the medium of instruction in the urkish higher education system is that it enables students to communicate with the international world. In these days, in my opinion, the most important thing for both university students and graduates is to follow the development in technology. %or this reason, they have to learn common language. "ertainly, they should not lose their interest on communicating with the world. 'owever, some of the university students cant obtain English education in their university. (nfortunately, these people may lose their communication with worldwide subjects and topics. In short, they will not communicate foreign people. o prevent these people from lacking of speaking English, universities administration will provide English education to them. In addition, university students can use some specific hardware and software of computers with their English to communicate others. %or e&ample, the Internet, which, in my opinion, is

the largest source in the world, based on English knowledge and information. *lso, most of the softwares such as ,Windows-, ,)icrosoft .ffice-, ,Internet E&plorerare firstly written in English, and these programs are the basic vital things for communication over computer. hat is to say, even in a little research about something, they need these programs and the Internet to find necessary sources and information. he last reason for favouring English as the medium of instruction of urkish universities is that it facilitates accessing information. *ll of the students have to do some projects or homework which are related with their field during the university education. In these projects or homework, they have to find some information which is connected with their subject. hey find sources from English web sites and books, but they have to replace these data to their projects. /uring these process, if they know English, they will not come across with any difficulty, but if they dont know, even they may not use these data. *s a result, the student who knows English will be more successful at his0her project. %or this reason, to obstruct possible ine#uity between students, management of universities should accept English as a second language in order to provide accessing information to the students. In short, university students need to know English to access information. *ll in all, the education in universities should be done with English for three reasons. %irst, students who know English are able to find their favourite job related with their field. 1econd, they can communicate with others internationally. hird, as a major language in universities, English makes accessing information easy for students. In my opinion, internationally, people need one common language. %or many years, English has been the common wold!wide language, and it will be in the future. %or this reason, if you want to follow trends, new gadgets and technology, moderni2ation of the developing world, you have to know English whatever age you are in.

Importance of English Language English is one of the most important languages in the world. It can even be said to be the single most important language. Other languages are important too, but not for the same reasons as English is important. English is important because it is the only language that truly links the whole world together. The other languages may be important for their local values and culture. English can be used as a language in any part of the world. This is because at least a few people in each locality would know the language. Though these people might not have the same accent as others, the language at least will be understandable Pakistan and Importance of English Language In countries like Pakistan, with people of various cultures live, the languages of each part of the country also differ. English can be the only link as people in each place will not be able to learn all the other languages to communicate with the people. English bridges this gap and connects the people. When a person travels to another part of the world either for the sake of business or even as a tourist, the languages may differ. In these conditions, English is the language that helps people to deal with the situation. It is like a universal language. The presence of English as a universal language assumes importance in the fact that more and more people leave their countries not only for the sake of business and pleasure, but also for studying. Education has increased the role of English. People who go to another country to study can only have English as their medium of study. This is because the individual will not be able to learn a subject in the local language of the country. This again reinforces the fact that the English language is very important. All correspondences between offices in different countries and also between political leaders of various countries are in English. This linking factor also tells of the importance of the English language. In spite of the growth of the Internet in various languages, English is the mainstay of the Internet users. This is the language in which most of the information and websites are available. It is very difficult to translate each and every relevant webpage into the language of various countries. With Internet becoming very important in education, English language is bound to grow. Thus the importance of English as a language is emphasized. The future of English as a language is very secure. The day is not far when this language will become the single language of the world like we have a single currency.

Language is the source of communication. Its the way through which we share our ideas and thoughts with others. There are uncountable languages in this world.

(hat are the importance of English language in this modern world In recent years, English is more and more popular in the world. It attracts people due to the interestingness in its tune and structure. /owever, beside the tune and the structure, this language is learned and studied by a higher number of people with every passing day because of its two importance in this modern world0 a mean to communicate and to create a greater opportunity for a 'ob.

The other importance of the language is that it create a greater opportunity for a 'ob. #s we know, in this modern world, businesses are targeting at 2ualities of employees3 and, knowing English is one of those 2ualities. $onse2uently, if we know English and good at it, we will have more chances to get a 'ob.

It is also used for international communication. English is the highly developed language which has the ability to e&press ideas and it is the means of revelation of modern civili2ation. Importance of English language is due to its international use. It is a fact that a vast knowledge of the universe has been demonstrated in this language. %or the achievement of that knowledge, it is essential to understand this international language. We may assume that it shares with the other highly developed languages of Europe the ability to e&press the multiplicity of ideas and the refinement of thoughts that demand e&pression in our modern civili2ation. In this modern age when electronic media has widely spread all over the world, it is necessary to have the knowledge of this language because it is the medium of communication and a person, lacking the knowledge of this language cant get awareness of the universal knowledge. *s it is obvious that the universal e&ploration is mostly revealed in this language, so its worth cant be descended. It is the age of scientific advancement and mechanical approach, the subject matter of which is demonstrated in English language, so it is an essential necessity of the people to learn this language.

English is important because it is, maybe, the only language that truly links the whole world together. If not for English, the whole world may not be as united as it is today. he other languages may be important for their local values and culture.

1ignificance of English$ 5o one can deny the importance of English in modern world. Its importance is not confined to professionals and students solely but it is also very important for common people even house wives. It is due to the great importance of this international language that our government make it compulsory subject in the course of students. @esides its academic importance a person is characteri2ed as illiterate who cant speak English well. English is the international language as one can find people who understand that language in all parts of the world.

We need to know English language in order to study any science subject or any computer language. It is said that "hina is developing its own resources in the fields of science and technology without learning any foreign language including English. @ut foreign countries put blame on it that all such formulas had been stolen by it and these are not "hinas own inventions. 1o without understanding the foreign science that is in English language, "hina prefers to copy out the things. @ut now we can see that china is also trying to learn English as a secondary language in its country. %or many journalists today, English is the main language used for newspapers or maga2ines, radio, television or the internet. * journalist has to take interviews from foreign leaders on their visit to Pakistan or if that journalist has to take interviews from them by going abroad himself+ for this purpose, English is a great necessity to be known by journalists. 6adio has become #uite famous among youngsters. hey used to listen to channels that are entertaining as well as educating mediums. %) AB and %) CA are well known radio channels in Pakistan which allow many of their programs to be on air in English. 1o, radio and D channels welcome preferably those people, who can write and speak English very well.

In a society like ours where the language English is being treated as a special language since last few decades. Even our personality evaluation totally depends on our listening, writing and spoken English skills, the better we are the more we e&cel. 1o we can conclude that job opportunities are for those who are better in all these aspects. 1o, your general knowledge and practical skills are not as much important as your command over English. 1ame is the case with abroad settled non!English people who find great difficulty in living and communicating there. so, to avoid all these problems people from the very beginning are trying to admit their children in English medium schools where they pay heavy fees just to e&cel in this standard. hat is why the poor people are still very far away from this language in our society and facing so many problems to move in society.
