TECHNOLOGY AND ENGLISH
When we talk about technology,
actually we talk about English. The relation of technology and English
is interconnected. The person who is sound in English language can
easily understand technology. In order to understand the terms of
technology, one has to know the language well. He/she has to have the
eagerness of mastering the language. ESL (English as a Second Language)/
EFL (English as a Foreign Language) users find the language sometimes
tough to get in touch with the advancement in language development. The
world is moving faster. In order to keep pace with the trend of the
present world, it is imperative to know English well. Without the proper
knowledge and appropriate use of English, we cannot expect any thing.
So the necessity of learning English is a must. To do well in
technology, we need to sharpen our ability to use English in every
sphere. Internet has opened new windows to learn English. We have the
access to online radio, BBC, CNN programmes online. Many sites give free
learning tips for learning English. The time has come to learn it well
and to prepare ourselves for the present and coming days.
People who are eager to learn English
sometimes do not get the right place or training. In the context of
people whose mother tongue is not English, find it tough to acquire
expertise to learn English. The language of technology is mainly in
English. So without having a good idea of the language people will not
be able to use technology. The foundation of language should start at an
early age. On the other hand, there is a tendency of escapism in
understanding the subject which we find it difficult or tough. In some
cases, it happens to people not to give time to understand the language.
As a result they lag behind day by day. Generally, the language of
programming, software is in English. In order to operate it well, the
necessity of learning the language is inevitable. Newspaper, Journals,
Books, Magazines, Television, Radio are the sources of learning English.
This learning could be utilized in understanding technological terms.
However, to know about technology, there are technological terms. It is
not enough to have the knowledge of English, at the same time,
familiarity with the terms of technology is also necessary to use
technology. There are many sites and books on giving information on
understanding technological terms. Eagerness and willingness to learn
English will facilitate the way of understanding technology.
