Globish is a world language.

Globish is not called English because it is not the whole of the language used in England or America, or even the whole language of any people who are native-speakers of English. Most Globish communicators are not native English-speakers. Globish is not a language: it is an agreed small part of an ever changing and growing language called English.

We talk a lot about international communication, but Globish is also important for national communication. In many countries, people speak several languages that are all important. Swiss people speak German, Italian, French or Romansh. Belgians speak French, German, Dutch or Flemish. The largest countries like India, and Russia, and China each have many local languages. Israelis speak Hebrew or Arabic. In many cases, all those people only know their own language. They cannot communicate together because they know only one language; their own. In some countries, even people who can speak another language try not to speak it.

In all those cases, Globish is the solution. Already, in many of these countries, people try to communicate in English just because it is neutral. It is not the language of any one group. Globish is good for them because it offers a solution and is easy to learn.

«Globish» is a set of English words and ways of using them first defined by Jean-Paul Nerrière as documented by the Globish Foundation. It may include extra words as International and Special words. Globish includes good ways of communicating that makes understanding easier for people who are not first-language English speakers. Globish does not involve any invented words or ways of using them.

Globish is being supported as a universal way to communicate. It is useful in all continents of the world and differs from English only in being just an agreed part of English, with helpful ways of communicating. This makes it easy to learn. Its limits are why it is so good:

• Globish has only 1500 words (1500 is a known number for every day, general communication);
• the words are known to everyone so people can use Globish words and then add others by agreement, defining them in Globish);
• Globish does not include difficult ways of using English (so it is easier to understand, learn and use);
• Globish does not include local examples, local ways of speaking, or anything like this (so understanding is more broadly available);
• Globish uses positive statements and short sentences (so it is easy to understand in other languages);
• Globish allows for different ways of speaking and spelling English words;
• having learned Globish, a person can ’grow’ their communication skills to speak and write English, if required;
• with computers, teachers who are not native speakers of English can teach others to communicate in Globish;
• with computers, people can learn Globish without a teacher;
• English-speaking people who have problems with English communication can use Globish to communicate;
• Globish is better for people who might have different abilities and be disabled.

7. Homework

Teacher: «Read and write in your piece of paper the quotation by J. W. Goethe „He, who knows no foreign language, doesn’t know his own one“ and send your stories to my e-mail zajmidi. yuliya.81@mail. ru».

Teacher: «Well, the last information for you. Different people live on our planet. And they have been speaking different languages. I hope that mutual understanding will never die, will never stop understanding each other. And I hope that mutual understanding on the planet — Earth will be forever».

And I want to return to the legend of Babel and ask the question «What language would help these people to understand each other?».
