ENGLISH AS A NATO LANGUAGE AND THE LEVEL OF COMPETENCE
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2005, Vol 16, Issue 3
Abstract
Due to the advancement in science and technology and to the increased use of computers and the Internet, English has become an international language that connects east and west. After WW II, English was used as a means of communication within NATO countries. It was important that the military personnel should have a common language that would help them communicate in multinational operations. English was first chosen because of its apparently easy structure and usage even if later its ostensible simplicity seemed to be hiding cultural discrimination and resentment.
