Commerce, science and technology, diplomacy, art, and formal education all contributed to English becoming the first truly global language. English also facilitated worldwide international communication.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Most of the USA spoke English before the slave trade, with both England and US slave owners speaking English they could easily strip slaves of their language and dominate power over them. English was always seen as a language of power after colonisation and still is today because of the USA and The UK. &nbsp;<br>Black vernacular English was created in this time through slaves picking up parts of the English language and combining it with their mother tongue. Black vernacular English is a creole language and was created in order for slaves from different parts of Africa to communicate easier without slave owners knowing what they mean.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The article argues that globalization in regards the English language has been beneficial mostly for the upper class. Many people in poverty stricken countries can not afford to get enough education to be fully proficient in English. The article notes that this has a detrimental effect in the realm of science, while a unifying language might seem beneficial for science, it instead mostly creates barriers for entry into scientific fields.While many people see globalization as a positive thing, it is essentially inseparable from colonization. Often times tradition and culture are underplayed or erased in order keep up with the global order. The quote a from linguist (Okoth Okombo) best sums up the effect of this cultural loss: “The death of a language is like the burning of a library.”</div>]]></description>
