English Language Used in Indian Media
Prof. N Shantha Naik
Abstract: English was a language of power, and hence maintained some distance from the regional languages, but, the novelists like Raja Rao, Mulk Raj Anand and R. K. Narayan, gave a new bent to the language and they introduced native words to retain local flavour in their writings. Since then English language opened the door to all possible words and retained in its vocabulary. This receptivity made it an epicenter of all sort of communication in the world. Sanskrit was believed as divine language, retained purity, never goes with regional languages and common people: only one community people were familiar with Sanskrit. Hence, it is considered to be a dead language. English is a learner friendly language as Deborah Comeron pointed out.
