Abstract

Alastair Pennycook, in his article entitled "English in the World/The World in English" (in Burns and Coffin et al. 2001: 78) expresses that what is missing from the transcendent worldview of examination concerning English as a worldwide language is a wide scope of "social, historical, cultural and political relationships." He goes on to contend that it is critical to comprehend the connection between the English language what's more, its situation on the planet so that "neither reduces it to a simple correspondence with its worldly circumstances nor refuses this relationship by considering language to be a hermetic structural system unconnected to social, cultural


and political concerns." Critical systems utilized to inspect the English language in a worldwide setting regularly depict its spread as common, unbiased and gainful and some way or another free of financial, political and ideological requirements. In the article exhibited underneath the worldwide spread of English and its radical effect on other dialects and societies will be analyzed as will its job in the improvement and support of 'society' and 'culture' in the nations where it is utilized.


The dominance of one language on speakers of other languages is known as linguistic imperialism. It is otherwise calledlinguistic nationalism, linguistic dominance, and language imperialism. Presently, the worldwide extension of English has regularly been refered to as the essential case of linguistic imperialism.
