The global lingua franca has already been established. Don't get so assblasted over it
Owen Howard
but chineses are sellers you are buyers, youre the one to speak their langage.
Ryan Murphy
too bad they have their own side of the world xd
Jace Allen
Not assblasted, just thinking that your standards must be really low to count "I no speek gud engrish" as "English Speaking".
John Hill
Do you understand that the point of a lingua franca is so many people of different languages can communicate together? If we all decide to change the lingua franca randomly, then communication breaks down pointlessly
Juan Hall
yeah but if we use that logic to justify which language we should all adopt, then it wouldn't even be english, spanish or mandarin is more spoken in the world.
Jace Hall
And then what will happen if we learned Chinese you retard? "Me no spek gud Chinese. No kanji please". You would somehow magically count broken speech as Chinese?
Samuel Harris
but you actually did randomely changed the linga franca because of american eugenism tho, now its asian century, deal wit it

>spanish or mandarin is more spoken in the world.
But the 2 billion people know English. The smartest thing to do is to take the language most people know, even if they aren't speaking it 24/7
Levi Rodriguez
>asian century
18 years out of the 100 to 2100 are already done. So much for "Asian century"
Gabriel Martin
2 billion people do not know English enough to be considered fluent. the number of native speakers compared to spanish and mandarin is smaller.
knowing a few phrases in English does not qualify as 'knowing the language'.
Thomas Lee
look china gdp in 2001 and now..
Josiah Johnson
WHY DONT WE ALL SPEAK THE SAME FUCKING LANGUAGE??? HUMANS MAY AS WELL BE FUCKING RETARDED.
Ethan Reyes
It'll take them til 2060 to get even close to USA
Julian Cruz
Well user, if that's what you want to tell yourself then fine by me
Brayden Murphy
by 2030-2040 the country will have a bigger economy then the united states. per capita, they probably won't reach american levels since 1.4billion people consuming the same standard of living as an average american would probably destroy the world.

Wtf kind of garbage growth rate are you using here?
Ethan Kelly
kek, keep believing this, during that time, china will make business with russia, japan and korea while western countries will slowly die from low birth rate and high migration ;)
Brody Reyes
its reasonable. i don't consider japan a 'english speaking' population. they learn it in their curriculum but the actual number that retain the knowledge and fluency of a native speaker? pretty small. that goes for a lot of the world. english is the majority language spoken by the richest portion of the world but certainly not the most popular in the world.
