If you are learning English at a college , school or further education institution , you join

approximately one billion other people around the world who are involved in the same

pursuit . However , because you are trying to memorize proper grammar , and try to avoid

the common mistake for students learning English , you might be wondering why you can

learn English in the first place .

Language plays an important role in human life . One seeks to acquire , learn and use the

language as a means of communication , and social as well as a symbol of humanity . By

using the language a person can make statements , convey facts and knowledge , explain or

report something , and maintaining social relationships between the users of the language .

This shows that by using language , people can express their ideas , feelings , etc. of

information through communication .

In developing countries such as Indonesia , the UK has a vital role in all aspects of life ,

especially in science and technology . Furthermore, it can be used to develop relationships in

international forums , to read English books ( especially for students from elementary school

to college / university ) , to strengthen the relationship between the nations of the world , etc.

As students , we learn English intended to acquire a variety of knowledge , to understand

and comprehend textbooks in English learning , to acquire knowledge and skills , and ready

to go to university , as one of the requirements of the test for senior high school students

( high School ) , etc. Given the critical role of the language in , which is why English is very

important to understand and master by every people around the world since the previous

As global or universal language , English is not only enables us to communicate and

interact with everyone around the world , but also can change our lives for the better . In

addition , we also have to realize that the western countries played a remarkable role in

developing and maintaining science and technology . So , if we wanted to be skilled

scientists , linguists , and able to compete with other countries in the world , we have to

understand , master and learn their language , namely English .

Lastly, if you study English at school , college or university , remember that getting an '

A ' in English is almost worthless , in terms of communication , if you can not speak the

language . Spoken English is the best career , the best universities , and is increasingly being

used at job interviews . So like it or not , English is the language that is very important to

learn how to talk .

English is spoken as a first language by around 375 million , as a second language by many

people and as a foreign language by around 750 million . It has official or special status in at

CHAPTER IITHEORY AND DISCUSION

2.1 why should English

English language is referred to as a universal language. That is the language that is often

used to communicate in different countries.In general English is divided into 2 IE, british and

American. And usually people in various countries put on the American version of English. In

addition to communicating in English language also plays an important role in finding a decent

job that two years will face free market of AFTA.Although there is still a language that can be

used as an international language. There are several reasons why the English language is used as

an international language:

1. Historical Factors

United Kingdom known as the country of inmperealis, where in the 17th century – 19

United Kingdom has occupied 2/3 of the Earth. Automated many countries using English as the

official language. In addition, an independent State under British nationality makes the English

as the everyday language.

2. order of the language

Language of the United Kingdom has an extensive language order and tidy, so it is easy

to learn and apply. Indonesia also has the actual order of the language as well as with the United

Kingdom, only returned to the first factor had been the United Kingdom into the community

because the Commonwealth of Nations formed by the United Kingdom.

3. more advanced developing era

United Kingdom is known to have a more advanced civilization. Often new thoughts

emerge from there. The United Kingdom's position is strong in the eyes of International and is

considered one of the main direction of civilization. Logically, if we want to learn from the

expert, of course we have to understand the language that he use.

2.2 english now a days

Nowadays english language holds an important role in the life of the global community.

English langugae has now publicly acknowledged as the international language that has been

domiciled in various industrial fields. Be it politics, economics, or art and culture. English

language has invaded all sectors and dominated the pop culture society, the majority of the

content of the (www) is written in english language. even now In a lighter perspective, we can

see the development role of english language in pop culture society young Indonesia. The

entertainment industry been filled by many English language content.

Thus, it is necessary to realize the importance of education English language for us,

Indonesia, society for future provision and careers that will or are currently living. Now, the

global competition is getting tougher on Indonesia. By employ foreign labor force, population,

we must seek more actively again in order to compete with the expat. Later, the foreign

companies who invest in Indonesia growing a lot, and certainly they opened the opportunity to

work in their company, especially to the people who can speak in english language.

Education industry has realized the importance of the role English language in Indonesia.

International schools started many we see in every corner of Jakarta, and in some other major

cities. English language curriculum in schools nationwide have also been developed and/or

renewed each year for current community needs. Courses of English language from a different

world, or locally owned lots are found in every town. With a price range of different courses,

language learning is available to any English language among the public.We Can’t denied the

role of English language, particularly in Asian countries will continue to grow with over time.

And similarly, in Indonesia, the English language will continue to play an important role in our

daily lives.

2.3 the development of the english language

The ability of English-speaking communities in Indonesia is recognized is still very

minimal. According to a study conducted from 2007-2009, which was held by an institution of

6

the English-speaking communities can be inferred Indonesia world number 34 of the 44

countries that have a mother tongue other than English.

Indonesia still lose much with neighbouring Malaysia which was ranked 9th. Many of

the reasons underlying the community by Indonesia in learning the English language, as it is

difficult to learn or too complicated, feel that English is not too important, or for people who are

old it's too late to learn English. Though English is the language which is very important and

must be mastered by the community and not of age, especially for people who are looking for

jobs or who already have a job.

Many large or small companies or Government agencies that demand a person to be

proficient in English. In the advertisements cover much of the work that lists the applicants

mastered the English language. English should be very overwhelmed because English is an

international language of the world. This language is used to communicate and interact within

the SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY exchanges and cooperation in business with entrepreneurs

from other countries. Job opportunities for someone who mastered the English language is very

wide open received work in companies or private institutions or the Government. It is certain

also can get a good position in the company or the institution. Without English difficult for

someone in getting a good job.

Gradually the country Indonesia will use a system like other developed countries, the

global market is where all people in different countries can work in Indonesia regardless of

profession, because in the year 2012 is still foreign workers in Indonesia are the top position only

example Supervisior, General Manager, Managing Director, etc. Today, able and adept at

mastering English is a plus because every companies requirements which must be owned by

someone of workers or employees of the company especially if international scale.

The importance of new English-speaking consciousness it’s just realized by someone

after searching or finding scholarships info workers requiring English language proficiency

either oral or written. One of the requirements that must be owned by someone to get a job both

on the international and foreign scholarship should have A minimum TOEFL score requirements

that must be achieved is 550

CHAPTER IIICONCLUSION

3.1. Conclusion

English language is referred to as a universal language. That is the language that is often

used to communicate in different countries. The reason why the english language is used as an

international language it’s because historical factor, order of the language, and the united

kingdom itself has more advanced developing era.English holds an important role in the life of

the global community. Such as industrial fields, politics, economics, or art and culture.

English so really important to our life. For example for get a job. As we know that

foreign companies growing a lot in Indonesia, and certainly they opened opportunity to work in

their company especially to the people who can speak in english. For get entertainment, we also

need skill of english language. For watching movies, listen the songs, read the magazine, etc.

The ability of english speaking communities in Indonesia is still very minimal. Many of
