A Visual Approach to Globish English Differences

A picture speaks a thousand words! What a wonderful cartoon depicting the differences between Globish and the English language. We’d better practice for better cross-cultural communication.

   Globish reminds me of another project called “Basic English” Unfortunately this failed, because native English speakers could not remember which words not to use 🙂

   So it’s time to move forward and adopt a neutral non-national language, taught universally in schools worldwide,in all nations.

   As a native English speaker, I would prefer Esperanto
