English, suitable for International language

    Do you think that Chinese will become the international language in the future, because of the large number of population or other reasons? In my opinion, English is more suitable than others as an international language. More than many countries speak English; the other reason is that it is neither the most beautiful one, nor the most rigorous one.

  Human languages have most developed now, and people can use them flexibly in any parts of their life. In general, languages are developing to two extremes. One is beauty. For example, Chinese is one of the most beautiful languages in the world. Chinese poetry is famous for beauty—it is meaningful. On the other hand, the disadvantage of Chinese is that it is ambiguous. The other one is rigor. For example, the international laws are written in French, because French is one of the most rigorous languages in the world. It is hard to find a different meaning of the article. On contract, the disadvantage of French is that it has many grammar rules.

    Therefore, one of the reasons why people choose English to be the international language is that, it is neither too beautiful nor too rigorous. People will not feel hard to express laws in English. They can also use it conveniently without many rules. In my view, English is most suitable to be the international language, and it will not change in the future.
