Abstract

English has become a global language used for communication in education, business, science, and international relations. It helps people from different countries to connect and share their ideas. However, the global spread of English also creates challenges for many reasons. Local languages and cultures may be weakened, and non-native speakers may face inequality or discrimination. While English promotes global understanding, it is important to protect linguistic diversity and respect cultural identities. The present research paper focuses on the cultural implications and challenges of English as a global language. It also tries highlighting the need to balance global communication with the protection of cultural diversity.
