A working language (also procedural language) is a language that is given a unique legal status in a supranational company, society, state or other body or organization as its primary means of communication. It is primarily the language of the daily correspondence and conversation, since the organization usually has members with various differing language backgrounds.
Most international organizations have working languages for their bodies. For a given organization, a working language may or may not also be an official language.
Originally English and French were established as working languages at the UN. Later, Arabic, Chinese, Russian and Spanish were added as working languages in the General Assembly and in the Economic and Social Council. Currently, Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish are the working languages of the Security Council.
The International Criminal Court has two working languages: English and French; all Secretaries-General of the UN, therefore, are required (unofficially) to be fluent in both. The Council of Europe and NATO also have English and French as their two working languages.

Sign Language theatre has recently come to the forefront of commercial theatre through the acclaimed Broadway production of Spring Awakening which is performed simultaneously in American Sign Language and spoken English. However, beginning with vaudeville acts in deaf clubs (in the early part of the 20th century) to the work at National Theatre of the Deaf and Gallaudet University, deaf actors and creative team members have produced incredible theatrical experiences for both deaf and hearing audiences. Follow members of the cast of Spring Awakening, Gallaudet University, and others as they explore the creative process, the history, and the joy that comes from sign language theatre. American Theatre Wing's Working in the Theatre series is nominated for a 2016 #Webby Award for Documentary: ...

Read your free e-book: http://appgame.space/mebk/50/en/B00A9YHAPA/book Even as Anglophone power wanes in Asia, and China and India rise, the role of the English language in the region continues to develop. How are students in Asian nations such as Vietnam, Malaysia and China itself being taught English? This much-needed overview analyzes the differing language education policies of selected countries that also include Indonesia, Japan and Sri Lanka. Noting Aseans adoption of English as its sole working language, it traces the influence of globalization on English language education in Asia: in many systems, it pushes local languages off the curriculum and is taught as a second language after the national one.informed by a comprehensive review of current research and practice in English tea...

One discernable legacy of the rise of identity politics in the 1980s, and the debates in the academy that began at that same time about Orientalism, postcolonialism, and reflexivity has been an increased reticence for researchers to "speak for the Other". In practice, this entails a reluctance to study groups to which one does not belong oneself. This epistemological and political squeamishness, combined with the neoliberal reformulation of university education that pressures departments and students to finish higher degrees quickly, makes it difficult for graduate students pursuing studies in disciplines like anthropology or sociolinguistics to spend much time learning foreign languages -- especially small, poorly (or un-)documented languages, or non-western-European languages. During t...
