This article is investigating the development of the
English language and its influence on global communication in the world.
Globalization has both positive and negative effects on existing languages,
integration between countries and cultures as it involves changes. Survey and
interview methods are applied for the determination of various people’s level
of foreign language knowledge and opinions about globalization. Practical
implication in this work is to inform society about globalization through the
foreign language expansion, the language transmission through lexicon or
vocabulary, and the grammar.
