Too Much English?

[Unkotare]

And interesting article in the economist recently looks at how ubiquitous English is becoming as a global lingua franca. It is now seeing us so essential for success academically and professionally that some non-English-speaking countries are adopting it as the language of instruction in their public school systems. Many of these in African nations. The economist article goes on to look at how it may actually be detrimental to younger students to adult English is the language of instruction at school when their teachers are not native speakers of English and English is not one of the languages spoken in the home or on a native level in the public sphere. It suggests that it would be better For students to be instructed in their native language at least in the earliest years until they have fully acquired that as their first language. This is confirmed by linguistic research and practice as well as pedagogical experience.

In any case, the English language continues it’s March to full global dominance.

No shit Sherlock. I educated you to this months ago when you couldn’t grasp the concept of language dispersal. Remember? The one where you kept mumbling some stupid shit about “bu, but Chinese...”, like some ignorant Sperg.

That’s what you thought last time when you were wrong. Now here you are these months later posting near verbatim what I taught you. You’re a fucking joke. How would you like your quotes on that topic. For posterity and all? Sit the fuck down poser. Better yet... man up and post them, cuz we both know god damned good, and well you remember what I’m talking about.
