Student1:I live in South Asia. My country is thousands of years old and now has more than a billion people. Unlike many other countries, our people speak a lot of languages. So we use English, which we got from British rulers hundreds of years ago, to understand our neighbours. Of course, we have our own way of using English. IndiaStudent2:One of my grandmothers speaks French. Her grandmother came from some place in Canada. I like to listen to her talk, although I don’t understand much of what she says. Her English is also hard to understand. She cooks delicious food, so I spend a lot of time in the kitchen with her whenever I visit her. I plan to see her again for a special holiday called Fat Tuesday. We will go to New Orleans, which is near the sea. People will dance in the streets all day and night.USAStudent 3:Well, I don’t live very far from the last student who spoke to you. But I live on a beautiful island where the sun shines most of the year. It’s not the biggest island in the sea but it’s not the smallest island, either. We also got English from British rulers a long time ago, and use it in a different way. I think our English sounds a little like our music, Some people say I speak a dialect of English, but I don’t agree. To us, it’s moue like another language.JamaicaStudent 4:I live on a huge green island in western Europe. Hundreds of years ago my people spoke a very different language from English. Then the British rulers came. Now the language is spoken in only a few villages in the western part of my country. Most of us speak a lovely kind of English that also sounds a little like our music.IrelandStudent 5:My country has more than 7,000 islands. Some of then are very large but most of them are quite small. Hundreds of years ago the Spanish rulers changed the way we live. Much later the American rulers taught their own kind of English in our schools. Nowadays, we speak a kind of English that borrows words from American English but is mostly our own.PhilippinesStudent 6:My country is very small. In fact, it’s really a city. It is in southeast Asia and is very rich. People come from all over Asia to do business here. But our English comes from workers on the street. Some people in my country don’t kike the sound of this English. They would rather speak British English. Today, you can hear our kind of English spoken everywhere in the city and on many ships that come here.SingaporeDiscussion:Why do you think English is spoken in so many places around the world?
