UBIQUITY OF ENGLISH

ENGLISH is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world that other languages adopt many English words, especially the ones related to media and technology. If you look around in cities and towns in Uzbekistan, you will find English everywhere, including internet, meeting, fashion, signs and so on. Moreover, we all surely have a couple of mates or relatives who master English pretty well. Most young people in Samarkand, Bukhora or Khiva are more acquainted with English speaking competence as those places are considered tourist centers in Uzbekistan. Even some school-aged children are able to explain directions in easy language and have good idea about price expressions and shopping in general. A lot of public transportation, economy and finance English words or expressions like play, parking, sale, super market, attention, warning, please, push, pull, caution, crisis, budget, auction, exchange, money or payment are undoubtedly known for people of any age in Uzbekistan. English has also become the language of world travel. For an Uzbek tourist visiting Italy or Turkey or France, it would be excellent if he or she can speak Italian or Turkish. However, if she can’t her best choice is English. So if you use English in your everyday life you will be an excellent speaker of English.
