GENERAL BASIS:

1. Current Conditions or situation on the class observed

The concept of communication is the activity of conveying information through

the exchange of thoughts, messages, or information, as by speech, visuals, signals,
writing, or behavior. It is the meaningful exchange of information between two or
more living creatures. The use of the English language in business generally implies a
fundamental need for people to communicate across the globe, at least at a basic
verbal. We can argue about the merits of the situation, but English already is the
language of international commerce.

Nowadays all people that are working in business have to speak English because is
really necessary if we communicate and spread our products and business. In these
days to speak English is necessary even more if we work in a tourism business, The
English language is well-known in business world.

socializing, correspondence, report and a systematic approach.

8. - Arguments Supported by Theorical Literature

English has emerged as the global language of trade and commerce in the past few
decades, affecting many key aspects of business in the modern world. The English
language first spread as the result of colonial expansion, and it has become the standard for
all important official communications in an increasingly large number of countries with a
wide variety of native languages. In the modern world, thanks to the Internet, English
continues to spread as the major medium through which both small businesses and large
corporations do business.

In some industries, such as the airline and shipping industries .English is the official
standard language. Therefore, an excellent command of English is required for key jobs,
such as in the museums, as tourist guide. In addition, English has emerged as a major
language for finance around the world because it helps to communicate with people who
speak English.
