Why do I write this blog in English?

 

 

            I was asking to myself this question some days ago. My native tongue is French. Why I don’t simply write this blog in French? My thoughts would probably be sharpened by more exact words; by the same time a better understanding of my readers. My first goal, I thought, was to write this blog in English to practice it. What a noble cause for myself. But more I think about it and less it’s the case. It’s sure that it’s helpful and rewarding but I think it’s more then this.

 

            One of the principal characteristic of a blog is the power given to the reader to leave comments on authors’ thoughts. If you check the languages spoken in the world, you’ll see that around 1.3 billions of persons speak English. Most of non English person take English as second tongue. What is interesting with blogs is to get comments from different person, around the world, with different cultures and different point of view. The best tool to achieve this aim is by using English as communication medium to reach the greatest heterogeneous population; to be able to have comments from the widest population possible.

 

            It’s probably why I wrote this blog in English.
