ENGLISH: THE NEED OF TODAY’S WORLD

Language is one of the components which frame our feelings into words. Globally, out of many languages English is a well-known language considered as the ladder to develop oneself in this cosmos. Lulia Ene says “Generally people who really have got something to say, whose desire is to share their message or beliefs worldwide are compelled to use English”. (p. 01). I agree with this quote that all of us are largely depending on English language to express ourselves. But, there are many others who are still unaware of the brighter side of the English language. This paper will explore the possible reasons for not adapting English language as part of our societies in Pakistan and will recommend some strategies to overcome these hurdles. This paper will also discuss the causes behind the controversy on adopting English language as part of Pakistani context including cultural constrain, lack of confidence among learners and lack of human resources to teach English language.
