English is the most unscientific and poorest language of the world;spoken only by 05% of the world; with only collection of 65thousand basic words; In 17th century it was spoken by poor illiterates of the local England dwellers where Latin was the language of the Elites and Nobles. The basic word collection in todays english goes to 65thousand only and in total around 06lakhs where rest are borrowed from other languages. Whereas any damn Indian language is much more scientific because descended from Sakskrit,Pali etc where basic-word collection is minimum upto 60lakhs. And total collection goes into cores because in Sanskrit it goes to infinity. Hindi is spoken by 40% of the world population and in more number of countries than English any day. Hindi is spoken in 26countries whereas English is just in 11 countries .....so English is neither GLOBAL nor GREAT ..its a false-propaganda by the colonizers.

the question is not whether it is poorest or richest. The topic is more useful. It should be encouraged and to be discouraged . If you want , you go to sanskrit site and publish your stuffs.

With English, you can ask directions in at least 100 countries, with Hindi, not even in southern part of India itself. Its not about propaganda but usability.

It's quite used! But there were other pharses which I came across 1st time, with only given option I could manage.
I like these type of Rediff articles where one can kill good time gaining knowledge as well. This Eng test must be a regular feature on rediff. Many thanks
