The Importance of English

Do you know, what is the importance of English language in our lives? Well, it is considered to be one of

the most important languages in the world, today. It does not mean that other languages have no

importance but we can say that they are not as widely used as English. The language has gained

importance because it truely connects the world together.

English - The Universal Language

The language is spoken by a large number of people and thus has attained the status of a universal

language. Its importance is felt by the fact that more and more people leave their country for business,

travel and most importantly for studying abroad. People who go abroad to pursue higher studies can

have only English as the medium of study. This way, English bridges the gap and make it a lot more

easier for a student to study in a foreign land.
