English In Business And Commerce

This volume fills an important gap in exploring English in the domains of business and commerce through the prism of sociolinguistics and the sociology of language, as opposed to analyzing business genres or taking a linguodidactic approach. It expands the regional coverage of English in Europe, with several studies based in Central Europe, and also considers contexts which interact with Europe even though they are physically outside of it (Asia, Africa). It addresses English as just one of several languages at play in the ecology of the countries. It focuses not only on the position of languages as declared in documents of various organizations, that is, language policy, but also everyday linguistic practices as observed in business contexts, that is, interactions. The studies are divided into three thematic areas: ideologies and discourses on English in the business sphere, the management of English in business and organizational contexts, and English and other languages on local and international labor markets. It will be of interest to readers concerned with multilingualism in the economic sphere and the workplace and the interplay between macro and micro levels during the management of communication in organizations.

English is one of the most common languages that is used by a majority of the people worldwide. In statistical terms, approximately 20% of the world's population uses the English language as their primary or secondary language. The word 'English' is derived from the word 'Anglisc' which means the speech of the Angles.English has found its use in conducting business, aviation, and computing overseas and in many other areas so that all the people can converse with each other through a common language. In the current times, the economy has started to become increasingly global because of which the usage of Business English has become highly important. Business English refers to the use of English language for conducting business. Business English lays its focus on the English skills that are necessary for one to possess in order to communicate within a global business environment. There are a variety of different subjects that are included within Business English such as Economics, Commerce, E-Commerce, Finance, HR, Insurance, IT, Law, Manufacturing, Marketing, Production, Stock Exchange, Trade, Transport, and many others.Within the field of conducting trade and business, Business English is used for providing training to the delegates, guidance, and counseling, boosting of morale, appreciating a well-done work, imparting instructions, giving the warning and for conveying suggestion, opinion, advice, request etcetera to the people.

The linguistic domains of business and commerce are especially affected by the economic and communicative globalization. Since language use in these domains has an impact on the use of a language in other domains, the future development of the European languages will not mainly depend on language-internal processes, but will increasingly be influenced by the use of English as the international vehicular language. The present development in Europe is discussed in several overview articles and a series of reports on the specific situation in various European countries. In addition, the Lisbon Resolution of EFNIL, pointing at the advantages of multilingualism in international business, is presented in 26 languages including the 23 official languages of the European Union. It calls the EU and its members to acknowledge languages as key factors for economic success, also from the perspective of consumers and workers.
