Globish!

Do you know what Globish is?  Go to the link on right and tell me what you think.  Is this a good idea? Who could benefit from learning Globish?  Should we as English teachers promote this idea? 
Would love to hear your opinions.

  1. Globish may be easy and convenient for people to communicate with each other all over the world.I think we teachers can promote this idea for the fluent communication. As for linguistic study, I think we should focus on English language itself.

  2. Globish: the blending word from “global English”, initiated for people from different culture, different language to communicate more easily. It is a new idea and I think young people should be encouraged to try it. It will be more convenient for people to know each other. But if we want to learn further about the English language, it is not sufficient. Anyway, it can not substitute English.
