Global Language And Communication
Muhtasari
Fewer than one in five people on earth grow up speaking English as a first language, yet it is the language most likely to appear on an airport sign, a scientific journal or a business meeting agenda almost anywhere in the world. Understanding why a small number of languages dominate global communication, while others are gaining ground fast, is central to understanding global citizenship.
In this lesson you will examine why certain languages spread widely, how communications technology has shrunk the world, and how easier travel connects different user groups, tourists, migrants and the global business community, across borders.
Malengo
- Reasons for the widespread use of European languages and increased take up of Chinese and Arabic
- Communications technology, and the shrinking world and its effects on language and communication
- Increased accessibility of travel within and between countries, including an overview of user groups (tourists, migrants and the global business community)
