    Uploaded by

    English has become a global language due to its use for international communication in various contexts such as military, politics, economics, technology, and education. As English speakers around the world have increased, English now belongs to anyone who speaks it. This has implications for how English is taught and viewed, with traditions reconsidering concepts like native speakers and standards, and recognizing new varieties of English emerging from expanding circles where English is learned internationally rather than as a first language.
