There are approximately 6800 languages in the world (Brown & Ogilvie, 2009) and english is the most used language, especially in scientific researches. This proved with more than 90% of scientific journals written in english.

There are 3 circle of english user in the world : 
  1. The inner circle user is someone who use english as the first language, the total inner circle english users are 408 million around the world.
  2.  The outer circle user is someone who use english as the second language, the total outer circle english user are 418 million around the world.
  3. The expanding cirlce user is someone who use english as the foreign language, the total of this circle are 306.9 million around the world.

In country that use english as foreign language, people made meaning about language that has relation with social interactions and cultural contexts.
