Globalization has led to more than 7,000 languages being spoken around the world. It has facilitated the spread of dominant languages like English and Spanish, while also prompting shifts in language usage and status in various regions. However, this process can lead to both the increase in language exposure and the endangerment of less widely spoken languages.
