********S OF BUSINESS
English is by no means the only ******** in global business. DAVIS (2003) observes:
While English in a major ********, it only accounts for around 30% of the world Gross Dometic Product (GDP), and is likely to acount for less in the future. Negglecting other ********s means ignoring quite significant potential markets.
