Englanti on maailman levinnein ja opetetuin kieli. Englantia puhutaan äidinkielenä mm. Britanniassa, Yhdysvalloissa, Kanadassa ja Australiassa. Yhteensä englantia osaavia on maailmassa reilusti yli miljardi. Englannin kielen taito on hyödyksi mm. työelämässä, matkailun saralla ja ihmisten keskinäisessä kanssakäymisessä. Englantia käytetään yhä enemmän myös tieteen ja tutkimuksen aloilla.
