most former, current or potential foreign language learners, one the most important motivations doing so involves the languages future relevanceboth as the language is being learned and afterward; other words, the question What will learning this language do me?. course, this varies person personas do the more general, unintended circumstances learning—, some the most common motivations include business competitiveness, immigration, travel, and personal studyimprovement/, others. Recent language growth trends shed some light these motivations, ie.. who they propel learn foreign languagesor—, more importantly, which languages appeal most inclusively the myriad relevancies and learning circumstances. Currently, the three most widely spoken languages are Chinese, Spanish and English, 1.2 billion, 329 million and 328 million speakers, respectively. Trends the Internet, perhaps the most inclusive global communication device, are most useful contextualizing the figures. 2000, there were roughly 34, 187 and 20 million online users Chinese, English and Spanish, whereas 2011 these numbers had risen 509, 565 and 164 million.

The United States is a prominent example: each year, 700 thousand one million people legally migrate the country, and half these come Spanish-speaking countries. the estimated 300 thousand undocumented immigrants that arrive each year, the percentage is even higher. Whether intentional or not, this results a massive rise both English and Spanish the US.., a process not matched Chinese its originating region. Besides, the process inevitably transfers and acquires more than just language: there is the speakers’ community and culture too, which further motivates and gives relevance the learners’ efforts.
Because nations such as the US.., their large populations native Spanish speakers, native English speakers, and bilingual speakers living closely together, some believe that one language the future might be more fully developed variant Spanglish. Considering this alongside the Internets seemingly indefinite growth, its not difficult imagine a sort mutant world language combining not only English and Spanish, also Chinese, others.
What do you think? Will the Internet, immigration, and other forces ultimately homogenize languages, or will the majority popular languages maintain their numbers and continue thrive independently?
