Title: English for Media Literacy and Global Communication during Covid-19 and beyond  

We all agree that language, like any living being, undergoes constant change and evolution in order to adapt to the needs of its users. Therefore, the English Language being a Lingua Franca is not an exception, and more than other languages in the world keeps pace with cutting edges developments in all areas of human life with its primary function of effective communication in professional as well as ordinary real-life situations. Development of English as an International Language has become more noticeable since the beginning of globalisation and more vividly after digitalisation, in which its significant role and existential function are now unquestionable. Moreover, it is the best communication tool for global citizens, individuals equipped with 21st century skills uniting under one common goal of making the world a better place to live via sharing and exchanging knowledge and expertise, as well as collaborating and cooperating more than ever before, through the use of this powerful weapon connecting us all – English.
