*You need to have these two (2) books for this assignment: Images of English: Cultural History of the Language (2009) by Richard W. Bailey and English as a Global Language by David Crystal.*
Based on your opinion, experience, reading, and reflection, is English being corrupted by forces such as email and texting language habits, or by the influence of pop culture or of other languages, such as maybe Spanish, or even others? Is corruption of a language possible? Is this a real threat to English? (Do not underestimate the subtlety and complexity of this question.)
