Scientists say that in the future humanity will speak the same language. Do you think this is a positive or negative social development?
It is predicted that only
one
language
will be spoken all around the globe in the future. While
there are certain drawbacks of

to
this
development, I would argue that it is more beneficial for our society. On the one
hand, the fact that humans will only speak one
language
can lead to inevitable consequences. When people around the world use the same language
on a daily basis, this
would lead to the disappearance of a great number of other languages. As a result
, there would be a great loss in terms of cultural and traditional values. Take Vietnam as an example. Due to
the increasing popularity of English, this
country is currently being greatly affected by Western cultures, especially through Western media such
as films and books. For instance
, young Vietnamese individuals nowadays tend to celebrate Western special occasions such
as Christmas or Valentine's Day even more than traditional Vietnamese festivals. However
, I believe that the increasing use of only one
language
is a positive development. The first advantage is that it would allow people from different parts of the world to communicate with each other in a much easier way. This
would help to facilitate many areas including business transactions, tourism and global cooperation. Another benefit is that it would be easier for people to research and acquire new knowledge when everything is written and published in the same language
. For example
, university students can easily look for materials produced by authors all around the world instead
of only being able to read what is written in their native language
. In conclusion, I believe that the benefits of speaking the same language
globally are much greater than its drawbacks.Submitted by nothingspecial898989 on
