English is a Key for Flourishing Career

Among the most commonly spoken languages around the world, English ranks second after Spanish.  Why is English so common and why does one have to bother about learning the English language but not Spanish, even when it comes before English?

Why is English so important?

To understand this, let us take a little peep at history. English is a West-Germanic language and was first spoken in medieval England – a country that is a part of Great Britain today. However, Ireland, also a part of Great Britain, speaks English too, though their native language is Gaelic. This neighboring country shares it language with England because the English ruled over Ireland for quite some time. As for the rest of the world, in the era of colonization, England forced many of her colonies to learn the language to make administration easy. If we fast-forward to the present time, you will find that the influence of such an attempt has made English a common language all around the globe.

The crux of learning written and spoken English

BAFEL considers learning English is one task and understanding its application is another task, which is equally important. That is because written and spoken English has two different ‘ways’ when used actively in a workplace. Spoken English relies on physical characteristics of an individual’s pronunciation to get the exact tone. And sounding the part of the language is as important as the grammar of the language.

Speaking English today is considered as a sign of social currency; a qualified person alien to the language is naturally considered as an uneducated individual. At BAFEL, we can groom you in mastering the tonalities of the English language along with the right grammar giving you an edge in communicating with others, professionally, both in India as well as abroad.
