Question

Online,English has become a common language for users from all over the world. In the process,the language itself is changing.

61      Some people say that within 10 years people will use English widely only on the Internet,but in forms it is very different from what we accept and know as English today. Why?

That’s because more people now speak English as a second language. And they use it to communicate with other

non-native speakers,especially on the Internet where they pay little attention to grammar and spelling.

“  62         ，’ says Bill Smith,a professor of language at American University in Washington D. C.

Internet users already create a number of different “ Englishes ” like Hinglish ( Indian English) , Spanglish (Spanish English) and Konlish ( Korean English) 63     

Some words are taken from traditional English. “Blur” ( = “not clear” or “slow” ) , for example,is often  used  in Singlish(Singaporean English) .  64      In Chinglish( Chinese English) , “long time no see” means    “have  not seen

you for a long time”. “In fact,most people speak different languages—It’s less common to speak only one，” says Mr  Smith.  65     

Instead，other languages are pushing them into English，and in the process，creating something new.
