As most of us know, English is one of the worlds most global languages. It is used not just as a natioanl language in English-speaking countries, but as a tool bridging the gap of communication cross cultures. As International English is described as a class studying the English-speaking countries, trying to understand the processes behind the enormous and continuous globalization of the language, my expectations for this semester are many and high. This is a wide theme with a lot of interesting directions that I would like to follow an study in dephts. I hope to learn a lot about how English effects different societies and how the language has developed within different cultures all over. At the same time I would probably catch up a few things about cultures in general all over the world (exciting!). English is a powerful language with enormous influence and importance. I am very much looking forward to study it further and to also improve my English skills, both in writing and orally. I think this will be a good one. Picture found on flicr
