Abstract

This article explores the influence of English as a global language and its impact on other languages and societies worldwide. English has become the preferred means of communication in many countries due to its association with improved opportunities in education, politics, and technology. The language’s rise to prominence, driven by historical events such as British colonization and the industrial revolution, has resulted in both positive and negative consequences. While English facilitates international communication and access to knowledge, its dominance threatens the survival of many local languages and cultural identities. The article also discusses the factors leading to language loss and highlights the challenges of maintaining linguistic diversity in a world where English is often viewed as a gateway to success.
