Main Article Content
Аннотация:
English has evolved into the dominant global language, shaping international communication, business, education, science, and diplomacy. Its widespread use is the result of historical colonization, economic globalization, technological advancements, and cultural dissemination. Today, English serves as the primary medium for global discourse, influencing linguistic policies, academic research, and digital communication. However, its dominance also raises concerns about linguistic imperialism, cultural homogenization, and the marginalization of indigenous languages. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of English as a global language, exploring its historical development, socio-economic impact, linguistic characteristics, and future prospects. By examining its role in various domains, we aim to understand the factors that contribute to its global status and assess its sustainability in an increasingly multilingual world.
