If I were given the chance to go on my own Odyssey to three different places the decision would be a difficult one.

I will stay in London for three full days which will allow me to see many of the most popular sights. From London, I will fly to Venice, Italy and stay there for four days.

It is everywhere. About 380 million speak it as their first language and perhaps two-thirds as many as their second. A billion are learning it, a third of the world’s population are in some sense exposed to it and by 2050, it is predicted, half the world will be more or less proficient at it.

This overall aided in developing an extensive research question: In what ways has the globalization of the English language worldwide impacted society? Through exploratory research, the views of English language globalization is widely debatable; although a majority of linguists and
