Since the beginning of American history, there have been massive influxes of immigrants entering the country with similar desires and motivations. America is known for its vast amount of opportunities, privileges, and most importantly, freedom that it is able to grant to its people. This, along with many other reasons, is why immigrants choose to come to the United States. When these groups of immigrants arrive, they bring their own unique traditions, customs, and of course languages to this country. America is one of the few countries that has such a culturally diverse population and the U.S is heavily impacted by it. It is this diversity that makes America what it has become and, nevertheless, produces the problems that it faces, as well. English is a global language and is commonly used in America. This is why many would like America to adopt English as the official language. This issue has come up most recently in the House of Representatives. The English Language Unity Act of 2017 (also known as H.R 997) was introduced and was made with the intent of making English the official language of the U.S. As previously mentioned, we are a country filled with various languages and so we cannot build a barricade and require people to comply. Martha Jimenez, an attorney for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund, says, it is a “tool of oppression”. An assertion that I stand by, because this bill endorses cultural assimilation, foreign speakers to lose touch with

Being under the British rule, English language was used as a language of education and a medium of expression among Indians. It is the Indian writing in English which gave the voice of Indian culture to the outside world. India’s Linguistic diversity adds to the richness of Indian culture and every region of India has a highly developed literary tradition with excellent writers of national, and a few of international fame. The regional literature of India since the ancient times has travelled an extensive path to gain the shape that it possesses in present Indian panorama.

Meanwhile two groups came in existence. One group was the ‘Anglicists’ advocated the revival of English and second was the ‘Orientalists’ who advocated the revival of Sanskrit and Persian learning in India but the noted Hindu leaders like Raja Ram Mohan Roy and Christian missionaries like William Carey advocated Western education through the medium of English. and thus a controversy arose between these groups. It withheld the smooth progress of English in India.

In my country, English is taught as a foreign language. The school that I was teaching is a bilingual school. They use English as one of instruction languages. However, in a certain level, the instruction language is mixed between L1 and English depending on the need of students. I teach English for senior high school students. Their ages are ranging from 13 to 14. The students in this context are first-grade students in senior high school. They are divided into two level. The one that I am preparing the material for is the pre- intermediate level students. These students can understand a simple text even though they do not understand all vocabulary. They read graded reader book every week and have a test every two month. This reading activity aims for comprehension and vocabulary practice.t

In this article, Karmos and Csizér illustrate the way acquisition of language in different age gaps through incentive to learn English language as a second form of communication. The study offers a description of learning English in three different learner populations in Hungary. The population included university students, secondary school students, and adults. The researchers used questionnaires that were given to the population of the study to evoke their feeling on learning the second language so that they could understand the difference between the acquisitions of English as their second language.

English is a language which can be traced back to the 5th century by migration and resettlement of its speakers into the different parts of the world. Beginning its foundation of the American colonies into Europe and into the 17th century with its establishment of the East India Company (Paranjpe & Prasad, 2010). The 200 years of presence that English had in India left a huge impression on its language orientation. Both attitudinally and linguistically English has made its place into the new cultural environment and fresh communicative needs. Despite the government’s support towards Hindi, the language inculcating the largest number of speakers under it compared to the other Indian Languages has not yet been able to take up the prestige that English holds in India. India’s larger population is bilingual with proficiency in English. Today it has earned the privilege as the language of the world’s developed countries, their technologies and economy (Paranjpe & Prasad, 2010). It is the very reason that this language has caught the attention of the future generations irrespective of their home country to put English at the pedestal and give development of their native tongue a second place. The provision that English gives on the professional front is too strong as compared to any of the other languages in India. It has not only acquired a wide range of functions in the Indian society, but has also linguistically evolved its own characteristic features at the

I would have never thought I would incorporate these many languages in my life, but I am glad I have, for they are very applicable. No doubt, learning a language can take a lot of time and effort, but their benefits outweigh their disadvantages. Monolinguals, especially in the United States, should become fluent in another language because of increased global communication, business and career benefits, and cognitive improvement.

I knew from the first day I started high school I had no desire to go to college. My main goal was to graduate high school even if that meant doing only the bare minimum. Which is exactly what I did. I didn't know how important an education was until after high school. Once graduating I enrolled into cosmetology school and even there my instructors advised me to get a degree, which I still was against. After receiving my cosmetology license I began working at a beauty supply store. I found myself knowing what I wanted to say but not knowing how to get it across without talking in ebonics when educating customers. We had a lot of Hispanic customers and only had one employee who spoke Spanish. On her off days I would find myself trying to translate as much as I could from what I could remember from high school Spanish classes. However I spoke Spanglish, a mixture of English and Spanish, which left me feeling embarrassed and frustrated that I couldn't communicate like I wanted to. This prompted me to go back to school for a degree in Spanish and work on my English skills. In her article, “Spanish Lesson,” Christine Marin writes about being raised in an English only household despite being Mexican-American and learning the power of her Spanish language and being bilingual. In the article, “Homemade Education,” Malcolm X describes being street articulate but not knowing how to express himself how he wanted to through letters. Malcolm X and Marin have both overcome learning

Based on the numerous sources of sound data available, U.S. is currently out-educated. On the latest Program for International Student Assessment form 2015, the United States scored an average in reading and science, and below average in math. Results had been unchanged since 2000. U.S. scores are behind global leaders like Finland, South Korea and Canada. It is not a surprise that Shanghai outscored every other country, in all areas tested.

English has respectable place in the society. A person is not a considered educated if he does have the fair knowledge of English. It has an established sociolinguistic fact that no one learns a second language unless there is need for it. English is perhaps best when it is the medium of instruction. This explains why more and more people want English medium schooling for their children. English medium schools have become synonymous with good teaching, better discipline, accountability, etc. So the mushrooming of English medium schools is as much an indicator of the common man’s desire for good teaching of English as ; of quality education generally, there is a social demand for English.
