The development of tourism contributed to English becoming the most prominent language in the world. Some people think that this will lead to English becoming the only langusge to be spoken globally. What are the advantages and disadvantages to having one language in the world?

In recent times, there has been a significant surge in the travel and tourism industry; which has promoted English as a
language
to prevail in many countries.
Although
it is stated that
this
will have a global benefit, it is often argued that drawbacks associated with English as an only
language
are many.
This
essay will demonstrate both the positives and the negatives of English as the only global
language
, though I personally believe it is a disadvantage because many vivid cultures and languages will diminish. Advocates of the English dialect believe that it has a crucial role to play in the global scenario.
To begin
with, tourists are benefited often when they are travelling to a different part of the world. Communication,
for instance
, is considered to be the most important aspect to understand one another. If English is spoken as a prominent
language
rather than any other dialect,
then
this
may lead to a better understanding

each other.
Although
this
action of promoting one
language
will bring uniformity to the world, it will
also
encourage more tourists to travel

In addition

to the economy.
This
is because tourism is an enormous industry and with the prominence of English more travelling will take place, and
this
will
then
help to bolster the economy. Clearly, if English

it will have several advantages. Others, myself included, believe that
this
promotion of a single dialect may lead to the death of many
culture
and
language
. Primarily, many countries may lose their authenticity if they accept English to be the only spoken
language
.

and

and with if they accept the
culture
of English as the only spoken
language
they would
then
be losing on their native dialects.
Secondly
, even though speaking in English may have many added benefits worldwide, it should not be promoted if another
culture
of a
language
has to be diminished. In short, encouraging English will lead to many disadvantages in relation to
culture
. In conclusion,
although
promoting English as a prominent
language
will boost the tourism industry and help to bolster the economy, I personally believe it is a disadvantage. It will not only make the world a boring place to live but
also
make many cultures lose their vibrant authenticity.
