More people speak English than any other language, but according to English language expert David Crystal, non-native speakers now outnumber native speakers by three to one. -There's never before been a language that's been spoken 3 The way that people study English is also changing. In South Korea, more as a second language than a first,- he says. By the end of last year, the number of adult English speakers in Asia had reached 350 million. And according to the British Council. in ten years' time 2 billion people will study English and about half the world's population will sפak it. 2 Why such enthusiasm for English11n a word, jobs. ·We always tell students they need two things to succeed - English and computers.· says Chelan Kumar, manager 4 of a language school in Delhi. For the middle classes in India, English can mean a prized job in a call centre. And the story is the same in other parts of the world. At a Toyota factory in the Czech Republic, English was chosen as the working language of the Japanese, French and Czech staff. Many other multinational companies, like Samsung and lG.Philips, have started moving towards an English·only email policy. Technology is a big factor in all this change - 80% of the world's electronic information is stored in English. for example, the national government has been building English immersion schools all over the count, where teenagers live in an all-English environment for up to four weeks at a time. In these 'English villages', students check into their accommodation, go shopping, order food, go to the bank, take cooking classes or acting lessons - all in English. And they seem to enjoy the experience - when we visited one acting class. a student was pretending to be the film star Drlando Bloom, to the obvious amusement of his classmates. However, these new English speakers aren't just learning the language - they're changing it. There are hundreds of different types of English in the world today, such as 'Hinglish', the Indian mi of Hindi and English. New words are being invented every day all over the world. As David Crystal says. -No one owns English now. What happens to it is on the shoulders of all of us.- apt f s 07
