KSK. Respected Teacher and my dear class fellows Assalam O Alaikum. Today the topic of my speech is ‘’Should english be our national language’’. What is a language? A language is the proper and systematic way of communication between individuals. It is the tool or a medium, with which a person conducts his business in the society.So he must know something of the structure of his language, its position in the world. Importance of English language should kept in mind. It is spoken by more than millions of the people in the world.It is the highly developed language which has the ability to express ideas and it is the means of revelation of modern civilization. Importance of English language is due to its international use.In this modern age when electronic media has widely spread all over the world, it is necessary to have the knowledge of this language because it is the medium of communication and a person, lacking the knowledge of this language can’t get awareness of the universal knowledge so it’s worth can’t be lessened. we cannot deny its importance in our life. Over the years,English language has become a tool to establish our viewpoint. We can present our theories among the international audience and readers. We can make use of English to promote our worldview and spiritual heritage throughout the globe. Yes, other languages are important too, but not for the same reasons as English are important. English is important because it is, maybe, the only language that truly links the whole world together. If not for English, the whole world may not be as united as it is today. The other languages may be important for their local values and culture. When British came in sub-continent for trade but ultimately they invaded it. Muslims opposed them but Hindus favored them. Hindus got the English education whereas Muslims due to hatred feelings for British did not learn English. Hindus took benefit of it and came closer to the British due to convenience in communication. It was also clear in history that ignoring the leading language would prove harmful to us so it is now. Sir Syed never emphasized on turning culture and changing norms of our society but simply said that learning English would prove beneficial. This was right afterwards. No one can refuse the importance of English in modern world.It is due to the great importance of this international language that our government make it compulsory subject in the course of students. Besides its academic importance a person is characterized as illiterate who can’t speak English well.It is also the language of internet and international media. Although Urdu is the official language of Pakistan but English is the language which is formally used in all private and government officials. Now Job is an important matter to be discussed here. Skill of English language helps students in finding a high quality job. In business life the most important common language is obviously English. In addition to this, especially high-quality jobs need good understanding ability and speaking skills in English. Therefore companies can easily open out to other countries and these companies generally employee graduates whose English is fluent and orderly. For example, a student, who is graduated from a university which takes English as a major language will find a better and high-quality job than other students who don’t know English adequately. In other words, the student who knows English will be more efficient in his job because he can use the information from foreign sources and web sites. He can prepare his assignments and tasks with the help of this information. In addition many high quality jobs are related with international communication and world wide data sharing. People working in an international company have to know English in order to communicate with foreign workers.English is the International Language and is one of the most popular and most spoken in the technology world. The latest and the most advanced discoveries and inventions in science and technology are being made in the universities located in the United States of America where English language is the means of scientific discourse. We need to know English language in order to study any science subject or any computer language. It is said that China is developing its own resources in the fields of science and technology without learning any foreign language including English. But foreign countries put blame on it that all such formulas had been stolen by it and these are not China’s own inventions. So without understanding the foreign science that is in English language, China prefers to copy out the things. But now we can see that china is also trying to learn English as a secondary language in its country.For many journalists today, English is the main language used for newspapers or magazines, radio, television or the internet. A journalist has to take interviews from foreign leaders on their visit to Pakistan or if that journalist has to take interviews from them by going abroad himself; for this purpose, English is a great necessity to be known by journalists. Radio channels FM 91 and FM 89 are well known radio channels in Pakistan which allow many of their programs to be on air in English. So, radio and TV channels welcome preferably those people, who can write and speak English very well.It is quite clear that English has become a necessity today. We should remove the remedies rather than criticize them. At the end Iconcluded that the matter of fact is we should have to improve our spoken skills and english language must be compulsory in every school.Focusing on child education at the grass root level will help more effectively.Adopt English as a language but not English culture as a trait. At the end I conclude that by adopting English language as national language will help us to achieve more progress in it so it can be useful for us to understand the international developments and aspects.It will surely help to prove us among the nations of the world.
