The Topic:
The topic of the talk is that there are about 2 billion people who speak bad English, but the problem is that when they speak English in a room with native-English speaking people, they can become insecure – But when five times more people speak “bad English” than “good,” how do we decide which language is best?
The Circumstances:
In this talk, global communication specialist Heather Hansen takes a look at the other side of English, where two billion voices have created a flexible, adaptable and accommodating space for global English communication.
What can we learn from the 2 Billion voices when we really listen? What happens when the natives suddenly become the foreigners – not in their own land, but in their own language?
For every 1 person born into English, there are 5 who migrate to this language when communicating internationally. On a global scale, this quite literally means that there are more voices that stand out, than fit in.
