This essay will be about the prohibition of English words in France by law.
It is quiet a big problem to forbid words only because the government is afraid that it's own language could die. The spread of English all over the world and it's position as global language can't be stopped or disputed and that is why I think that it is irresponsible to outlaw English words. In one or two decades English will be spoken everywhere and nobody will be able to communicate without using English. That is when the trouble for the French will start if they continue with this politic. The French people wont be able to understand the English expressions and words. Once the expansion of English in France is stopped it will be difficult to catch up with all the other countries which have English
Anyway there is still the one or the other good thing to be found in the decision of the French.
I did myself rather hard finding some convincing facts that defend (vindicate) the prohibition of English but in the end I came up with the few above mentioned points.
I would say that the French don't want to realize that English becomes the global language and not French. In earlier times French and English was equally spread and than all at once English is considered as global language. And worse to come English wants to kill French. The Frenchman can't stand this shame and try to prevent the English triumph by prohibiting English in their own country. But I think it is impossible to stop English mixing up with all the different languages but that is only my opinion
