English As A Global Language # Essay For IELTS

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

Tourism has contributed to make English as a global language. Some people think that this will lead to English becoming the only language spoken globally.

What are the advantages and disadvantages to have only one English as the only spoken language?

You should write at least 250 words.

 

It is thought by some people that with English becoming the predominant language, may one day become the dominant language of the world and outcast all other languages spoken in the world. Having one language will certainly aid global understanding and improve economic scenario but it also brings along with it some drawbacks.

One evident benefit to having one global language is that it would allow for better understanding among different countries. Even more, people travelling from one place to other won’t find difficulties in searching for better places. The third advantage that it provides is that it will reduce the crimes because of lack of communication, that often take place in tourists. For instance, if a person understands the language of the country, it becomes easier for them to understand the signs on road or other public places.

Turning to the negative side of the argument, it would mean that all other languages will disappear and along with them the cultures they bring along with. Having different cultures allows for joy to the universe. Each culture is unique with its own way of life and its own perspective of the world which will be all lost if we had only one language. Secondly, the entire concept of tourism will break down because all country will have the same culture and same language, allowing nothing new for the tourism. This will have an adverse effect on countries which rely entirely on tourism.

In conclusion, where there are plus points of having a global language, too much will be lost as a result. Maintaining local language and culture will allow to preserve the global heritage, which is of higher priority.
