Today English is spoken all over the world. It is spoken by more than 400 million people. For some people English is a native language, in several bilingual countries it serves a second language and lots of people learn English as a foreign language, which they need for education or for a job. The spread of English in the world began in the 17th century, when thousands of British people went overseas to North America, Australia, New Zealand, etc. In Shakespeare’s time only a few million people spoke English and they were British. In those days the English vocabulary had 60,000 words and the great English playwright used 30,000 words in his plays and poems. He enriched the English language enormously.
At present English has the world’s largest vocabulary: more than 600,000 words and about 500 words are added to the English language every year. English also borrows words from the other languages. Nowadays English is an international language of science, technology, medicine, aviation, business, and
sports.
