Фрагмент из книги.
You can usually find the definition of an idiom under one of its “full” words (nouns, verbs, adverbs or adjectives, but NOT prepositions and articles), in a section marked, for example, nrrtv So the definition of stick to your guns will probably be given under stick or guns.
Whose language?
How many people can speak English? Some experts estimate that 1.5 billion people — around one-quarter of the world’s population — can communicate reasonably well in English.
Never in recorded history has a language been as widely spoken as English is today. The reason why millions are learning it is simple: it is the language of international business and therefore the key to prosperity. It is not just that multinational companies such as Microsoft, Google, and Vodafone conduct their business in English; it is the language in which the Chinese speak to Brazilians and Germans to Indonesians.
David Graddol, the author of English Next, says it is tempting to view the story of English simply as a triumph for its native speakers in North America, Britain and Ireland, and Australasia — but that would be a mistake. Global English has entered a more complex phase, changing in ways that the English-speaking countries cannot control and might not like.
