"One language spoken worldwide would lead to better international relations."


Language is a source of our speech, basis of any conversation, a key to communication. You would not survive without speaking any language at all. As we all know, every group of people in the world has their own ways of interaction. They use their own alphabet to write, own signs to show, own grammar rules to make sentences, own word formation laws, own punctuation, own language peculiarities, etc. Language is every country's personal system, which is used by its inhabitants in everyday life. Different languages - diverse minds and inner worlds. But would not it be much easier and more convenient to use only one language? One language - one thinking, one life, one reliable understanding, and... one goal!? Just imagine. Some people have already thought through this idea. However, the opinions are completely different. 

Some people suppose that a sole language would make the whole situation in the world much better than it is. First, using only one conversation tool will help people with money and product exchange. For instance, it will assist people in making successful business deals without any language problems and misunderstandings between each other. Or will make the speeches on international meetings comprehensible. Moreover, one language is a key to travelling easily, because you do not have to visit any language schools, waste money on learning French or Italian, spend time on a 10-year studying Chinese, for example. You will fly to every country with a soothing thought that wherever you go, you'll always be understood! For both these reasons speaking one language all over the world is much more suitable for everyone.


Nonetheless, others consider this idea crazy, awkward and even harmful. To start with, different language show country’s cultural features, describes nation’s mentality, makes the world divided into variable parts to discover. So, with a sole language’s emergence into our world, people will not strive to discover new culture, and some countries can even disappear at all! Furthermore, some professions will just disappear, and millions of people will lose their jobs. First of all, It concerns such professions as: translator, interpreter, language teacher, copyrighter, linguist, etc. That is because their field of knowledge is language. Secondly, polyglots will disappear at all! Maybe that is not a big problem for the whole world, but for those who devoted themselves to languages, it will become a tragedy. So, one language is unsustainable for a mankind.

All in all, people have different thoughts about this issue. Language is a complicated organism! People stretch it, spoil it, break it, repair it.. It is just a person’s instrument, not more. It does not matter how many languages there are in the world, people should communicate using something!
