English includes new words that reflect the state of the times. The English language continues – more than another language – to evolve and absorb new words derived or branched – we close it being translated – from other languages.

Its dialects are different around the world

Another, more recent development in the development of the English language is the emergence of distinct dialects among the countries in which English is the mother tongue. The English language differs in pronunciation and dialect between the United Kingdom, Australia and America, as well as in spelling and speech, as it is affected by the cultures and historical events that have shaped its development.

Varieties in other languages

The English language has a long and fascinating history that stretches between wars, invasions and influences from around the world. The cultures that helped shape modern English are the Roman, Viking and French. For this reason, it is a hybrid language made up of Latin, German and Romanian elements.

English language business and international trade

With the presence of the headquarters of the main business often in the financial centers in the United Kingdom and the United States, it has always been English the official language of trade. This led to the domination not need English speakers to learn another language, while speakers of other languages had to find common ground communication with people from different parts of the world.
