Good morning

Not getting whiled up on the introduction, I’ll get to the point. I’m here to facilitate on the
significance of spoken English.
When languages are called “commodities,” it suggests the existence of a market or markets
in which languages and language varieties, like other tradable commodities, have an
economic exchange value. The concept of a “linguistic market” is not a new idea;
An Indian student in Harvard university advices the students of India to learn English. It goes
this way
“The lack of knowledge of the English language, and not being fluent, always kept me back from
participating, and from applying for courses. There were times when I felt unworthy, and I had a
very low self esteem. But I learned that, with a bit of goodwill I can do it. There was a point in my
life, when I felt that I was no longer growing. I was relating perfectly to that expression, “If you’re
not growing, you’re dying.” So, I dug deeper in my thoughts and decided that it was never too
late. I won’t let my age stop me from learning. Apart from learning English, I must say that I’m
enjoying the company of my foreign friends. Although the majority of the students are much
younger than I am, they are making me feel I am still that adventurous and challenging person
that I was. The fact that we all are on the same boat helps me go all out, speaking my mind
without any fear at all.”

So guys please get fluent in this language, or commodity, or material of status, or key to your
success.
This need not be achieved by putting down your own language.
Praise your mother language, learn the material language.
Thank you everyone.
