English is spoken as a native language by around 377 million people, and as a second language by around 375 million speakers in the

world. Speakers of English as a second language will soon outnumber those who speak it as a first language. Around 750 million

people are believed to speak English as a foreign language. English has an official or a special status in 75 countries with a total

population of over 2 billion.

The domination of the English language globally is a sure thing. English is the language of international communications, business,

tourism, education, science, computer technology, media and the Internet.

British colonialism in the 19th century and American capitalism and technological progress in the 20th century were undoubtedly the

main causes for the spread of English throughout the world. From the fifteenth century, the British began to sail all over the world

and became explorers, colonists and imperialists. They took the English language to many places. For the last hundred years, the USA

has played a leading role in most parts of the world. The Hollywood film industry also attracted many foreign artists in quest of fame

and fortune and the number of American films produced every year soon flooded the market.
