The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its present-day importance as a world language. Besides serving the indefinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native speakers.

It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological and airport communications, international conferences, and the dissemination of information over the radio and television networks of many nations.

It is a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multi-lingual populations and need a language for internal communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for international communication and for access to the scientific and technological developments in the West.

对英语的广泛需求的主要原因是它作为一门世界语言在当今的重要性。除了满足母语者的无限需求外，英语是一门正在产生科学、技术和其他领域一些重要作品的语言，而且并不总是由母语者完成的。

它被广泛用于气象和机场通信、国际会议以及通过许多国家的广播和电视网络传播信息。

对于许多发展中国家，特别是前英国殖民地来说，英语是一种更广泛的交流语言。这些国家中有许多是多语言人口，需要一种语言来进行政府、商业、工业、法律和教育等事务的内部交流，以及进行国际交流，并了解西方的科学技术发展。
