Should a country have an official language?
Official language of any country is part of its culture in my view.
Having a specific official language provides people of country an
opportunity to feel pride. Therefore, I am of the view that a country
must have its own official language.
Are some languages are more important than others?
Due to multicultural settings these days, some languages have
assumed more importance than other languages. The political and
economic dominance of certain countries have also made some
languages more important. For example, English language has
become an international language due to the fact that the countries
where this language is an official language has gotten more influence
in the world matters as compared to the other countries. Same is the
case with Chinese and Hindi language these days.
Should English be the main 'international language', if so why in
America people judge people by their fluency in English?
English language has all the attributes to be an international
language. It is well spoken and understood almost in the entire
world. American people judge other people by the fluency of English
probably due to the fact that they are well versed only in one
language in comparison with the other people.
