Topic: The widespread of English will cause the extinction of lesser-known languages to some extent. Is this positive or negative trend?
Nowadays, in the process of globalization, English is becoming more and more popular all over the world and this language is able to result in losing less spoken languages. From my point of view, this is a negative trend for several reasons
One of the main reasons is that this tendency might make the variety of languages drop remarkably. As a matter of the fact, there exists a large numbers of languages in different countries and some minority merely are known by the local people. For example, Tay ethnics language in Vietnam is spoken by a small proportion of villagers in Hoa Binh or Lang Son. It is easy to realize that if in these provinces, people used English in their daily lives; this minority language would disappear in the near future. Because of that, there would not create various kinds of languages, even a monotonous linguistics
Another disadvantage which this trend brings is that traditional values in each area might be persevered and developed. Viewed from different angles, the widespread of English means that the British culture is learned and understood widely and these other languages are not exceptional. However, it is worth noting that the lesser-known languages are losing their traditional customs and habits by diminishing their ranges. Additionally, young generation might not have deep insights into language their ancestor used.
To put in a nutshell, I am penning down that English plays an important role in our life. Nevertheless, what we do now is to reserve and explore minority languages to maintain the beauty of linguistics.
