Do you think 100 years from now, English will still be the lingua franca or will Mandarin take over? (or some other language)
People are saying how the Chinese are taking over the world markets and their global investment strategy is unprecedented. Even if they do become the most influential economic superpower, will they successfully spread their language?
I would imagine that would only be feasible if they adopt the Latin alphabet.
French will become the lingua franca in 50 years. Screencap this post.
English is the language that Jews use to swindle goyim. Once your country finally collapses they will learn Mandarin.
>Do you think 100 years from now, English will still be the lingua franca or will Mandarin take over? (or some other language)
There is no way mandarin becomes a lingua franca. This meme has to stop.
English is easy, and in latin alphabet. Mandarin is extremely complicated considering its writing system.
chinese isn't gonna happen
i would bet higher on other european languages like german or spanish than chinese desu
Tons of Chinese people try to learn English, fuck all anglos can speak Chinese
Also most of the grammatical structure of English has been taken away over the last few hundreds years so its not too hard to start off, even though ive heard once you get over the starting wall of Chinese it gets easier to learn to a high level.
Are you the leafflag retard from /sino/ threads?
From what I hear, Australia is full of white women getting impregnated by Chinese men.
The children grow up speaking Mandarin too.
Haha yeah nice one
No, because while English isn't perfect Mandarin sounds like shit
And China is spending loads of money to get large numbers of their population 'fluent' in English, we aren't doing the same.
If the chinese continues to ruin the environment, mandarin will only be spoken in hell.
Swedish women love Chinese cock.
100 years from now? still English. 200 years from now? could be mandarin.
Maybe we are just Francophiles user.

D-do you love France?
I can’t see English changing unless the US falls hard or some new “super internet” comes out and it’s default language is like french or something.
I do
>brainlet africans are going to learn 3000 characters
Hahahaha no.
Mandarin isn't going to displace English ever. English has become too important. Besiders, Chinese is complicated and sounds like shit.
whole yurop is actually speaking arab. English will here be replaced by that shit in 50 years.
As an Arab. If you believe that you’re retarded. Most Muslims only know some prayers in Arabic and like 2 greetings. That’s it
1. Extremely ugly language
2. People already know the latin alphabet; why would anyone throw that out and learn thousands of antiquated characters?
3. Chinese people are already learning English en masse. No need for us to learn Mandarin.
>Extremely ugly language
not an argument
I hope not, Chinese isn’t a very nice sounding language though it’s characters are pretty cool on paper
Eh, but it's not very hard that to premise that it will become the lingua frinca of Africa, just like mandarin might become a lingua frinca of Asia.
They probably won't supersede english as the global lingua frinca though. Fine by me, english is just wrongly pronounced french.
Or French is just a nasally pronounced yet vulgar version of Latin
amateur futurist guesstimates about economy and culture never take transhumanism into account
you people have watched too much star wars and sci-fi shit, there won't be any borgless humans walking the planet in 100 years lmao
at this point there's a greater chance china will devolve into a civil war and and break up into multiple countries than become the dominant hegemon. when their bubble bursts the ccp will have hell to pay from their people
>Also most of the grammatical structure of English has been taken away over the last few hundreds years
Try a thousand. Fuck Fr*nce
It's shirty writing system will stop it from becoming the lingua franca
>at this point there's a greater chance china will devolve into a civil war and and break up into multiple countries than become the dominant hegemon. when their bubble bursts the ccp will have hell to pay from their people
You're repeating a common talking point that's been said for many years.
No respectable economist is predicting that either.
Mandarin is terrible on ears.
I would hope more like Japanese to become Lingua Franca rather than Mandarin.
At least Japanese sounds nice. But is probably very difficult to learn.
No, English is simple and somehow related close to most European languages (transparent words, similar structure,... ) mandarin is way to complicated to learn also, America is the first cultural power, Poeples consume media in English and thus learn it, China makes fuck all and has no culture to export.
English will probably keep on degenerating with a lot of loanwords from spanish, mandarin and french, also less grammar to become even more of a global common pidgin.
fuck I hope now
Welp, don't be shy, come over
