Many thanks, Vincient, for the link to the article! It's an interesting research question but one I've not followed to see what research literature is available but I suspect that those with financial means to advance their education would have a better command of English which no doubt opens further educational and career avenues.
Does research show a correlation between the ability to speak English as a 2nd language & economic status of those in non-English speaking countries?
ReplyDeleteGood question, Vincient! I'm unaware of any research on this topic but I imagine that there is some literature focusing on this.
