English has become the common language of the world. Even Korean executives doing business in Shanghai or German politicians writing laws in Brussels are probably speaking English. Non-native speakers start learning English at a young age to achieve fluency in the language. Primary schools in China offer English lessons in the third grade rather than in middle school. A growing number of parents send their preschool children to local English courses.
There is so much enthusiasm in the English language because of jobs. Back then, only elites like executives needed English for work. Today, it has become a requirement in business, technology, and education. English has been established as the international language and there is little chance for it to change in the future.
