大家都在學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)

來(lái)源:本站原創(chuàng)    點(diǎn)擊率:    發(fā)布: 2011-4-14

由于大部分時(shí)間都待在上海等中國(guó)內(nèi)地城市,所以我總覺得仿佛全世界都在講普通話。中國(guó)以其13億的人口吸引了世界各地的移動(dòng)電話制造商、汽車制造商、消費(fèi)品綜合企業(yè)前來(lái)掘金,似乎也證實(shí)了我的感受。

然而,據(jù)部分觀察人士估計(jì),目前英語(yǔ)人士(無(wú)論是否以英語(yǔ)為母語(yǔ))已超過中國(guó)大陸、臺(tái)灣地區(qū)、新加坡的普通話人士(13.7億人)。有趣的是,不以英語(yǔ)為母語(yǔ)的人群構(gòu)成了其中的主要部分。

如果按照主要使用英語(yǔ)的國(guó)家(美國(guó)、英國(guó)、加拿大、澳大利亞、南非、新西蘭、愛爾蘭等)人口來(lái)統(tǒng)計(jì),有的專家會(huì)說(shuō)以英語(yǔ)為母語(yǔ)的人數(shù)為3.75億。但在中國(guó),學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)的人數(shù)超過3億,將近英國(guó)人口的五倍;全球?qū)W習(xí)英語(yǔ)的人數(shù)大約有20億。

當(dāng)然,不是每個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)的都能視作英語(yǔ)人士。但英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者中符合這一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的群體(除了中國(guó)大陸,還有印度、印尼等國(guó))將英語(yǔ)人士的數(shù)量推升與普通話人士同一水平,甚至有所超越。

如果某種語(yǔ)言的非母語(yǔ)使用者超過母語(yǔ)使用者,意味著什么?

英語(yǔ)已經(jīng)成為機(jī)場(chǎng)、學(xué)術(shù)會(huì)議的主要語(yǔ)言,為空中交通管制員、外交官的正規(guī)語(yǔ)言,是網(wǎng)絡(luò)、國(guó)際體育競(jìng)賽中最為常見的語(yǔ)言。因此,英語(yǔ)已經(jīng)走出了說(shuō)英語(yǔ)的國(guó)家。

在參觀中國(guó)一家英孚英語(yǔ)培訓(xùn)學(xué)校(ef english first school)時(shí),我總是感受到課堂中的熱情和能量,證明他們學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)的熱情絲毫不減。雖說(shuō)語(yǔ)言往往是民族認(rèn)同的一種標(biāo)志,但我覺得英孚的學(xué)員們都在真誠(chéng)地體味著英語(yǔ)的精髓。他們向英語(yǔ)注入的熱情,與其說(shuō)是來(lái)自外國(guó)學(xué)習(xí)者,還不如說(shuō)是一位未來(lái)英語(yǔ)人士所具有的面向全世界的樂觀精神。

當(dāng)然,無(wú)論在西方國(guó)家還是其他地方,漢語(yǔ)熱都已隨著中國(guó)大陸的爆炸式經(jīng)濟(jì)齊頭并進(jìn)。2008年全球金融危機(jī)之后,人們大都認(rèn)為亞洲是帶動(dòng)世界經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)的發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī),所以會(huì)毫無(wú)疑問地繼續(xù)關(guān)注中國(guó)。由于熱衷于向美國(guó)的學(xué)齡少年提供漢語(yǔ)課程,甚至某些美國(guó)學(xué)術(shù)團(tuán)體中以漢語(yǔ)為母語(yǔ)的人士已流失殆盡。

那么,十年后我們的語(yǔ)言將何去何從?普通話人群又將躍居第一,還是英語(yǔ)作為全球通用語(yǔ)獨(dú)占鰲頭?不要忘記西班牙語(yǔ)和印度語(yǔ)人士也很龐大。我只能說(shuō),學(xué)習(xí)外語(yǔ)的興趣只會(huì)有助于彼此順暢溝通、加深對(duì)外國(guó)文化的理解。這必定是一件好事——就像瑞典語(yǔ)所說(shuō),“vi far se”——我們終將見證。



以下為英文原文

since i spend most of my time in shanghai and various other cities in mainland china, it often feels like the world is made up largely of mandarin speakers. considering the sheer magnitude of the chinese population, the 1.3 billion people that have lured mobile phone manufacturers and automobile makers and consumer goods conglomerates to this part of the world, my inclination seems to make perfect sense.

however, some observers estimate that the number of english language speakers, both native and non-native, currently exceeds the roughly 1.37 billion mandarin speakers concentrated in china, taiwan, and singapore. and, interestingly enough, it’s the number of non-native english speakers that helps push the number to the top.

if you count native speakers based largely on the populations of countries that predominantly use english ╟ the united states, the united kingdom, canada, australia, south africa, new zealand, ireland, and the rest ╟ some experts say you’ll come up with a total of around 375 million people. but you’ve got over 300 million people studying english in china, nearly five times the population of the united kingdom. and an estimated two billion people around the world are learning english.

certainly not everyone studying english qualifies as an english speaker. but those that do (not only on the mainland but in india, indonesia, and other countries) propel the total number of english speakers into the same stratosphere as the number of people who speak mandarin, and perhaps even beyond.

so what does it mean when non-native speakers of a language outnumber native speakers?

well, already, english is the predominant language in airports and academic conferences, the language used among air traffic controllers and diplomats. it’s the language most available on the internet, as well as at international sports competitions. so, certainly, the usage of english has not been limited to english-speaking countries.

and when i visit one of our ef english first schools in china, the energy and enthusiasm i consistently witness are indicative that the desire to learn english continues unabated. while a language is usually a symbol of national identity, i think it’s fair to say that our students are sincerely embracing the essence of english itself. they infuse the language not so much with a sense that it belongs to another country, but with an internationally-oriented optimism about what a future successfully speaking english might bring.

of course, in the west and elsewhere, the study of mandarin has certainly grown in tandem with the explosive mainland economy. after the worldwide financial crisis of 2008, asia is largely regarded as the engine powering global economic growth, so the spotlight on china will undoubtedly remain fixed. interest in offering mandarin to young, school-age children in the united states has even resulted in a shortage of native chinese speakers in some academically-focused american communities.

so where will we all be, language-wise, ten years from now? will mandarin speakers come roaring back into the lead? or will english reign as the global lingua franca? and we can’t forget the hefty numbers of spanish and hindi speakers. all i can say is, interest in learning another language only means better communication for everyone, and a deeper understanding of other cultures. that can only be a good thing. and on that note, as they say in sweden, vi far se. we shall see…
