THE POWER OF ENGLISH

English is among the most important language in the world. It is spoken all around the world. The great number of people speak English as their second language. That is why English has a power. It does not result from English‘s grammatical structure, pronunciation or power of words.  It results from political, technological, industrial and economic power of the countries where English is spoken. At first, we can say that the most important criteria is political reasons. England has many colonial countries all around the world. It has governed many countries from Africa to Southeast Asian countries. While it is governing these countries, it affects them. People who are from these countries are affected by English, and so these people largely speak English well.  Secondly, another important point is that technology is a significant criteria. As the countries where English is spoken produce new technological products, and they call them after their name or various English words. Thus, these words spread throughout the world, and English became more powerful. Thirdly, these countries are among the leader countries in terms of economy in the world. As they develop in technology and industry, their economic situation becomes better. That is to say, the developments in an area affect another area. Hence, English is spreading day by day. English is also language of science. Many scientific term are derived from English. As another countries develop in science, they use these English scientific terms. To sum up, all these factors make English the most important, common and powerful language of the world. I think this process will continue.
