English is just a language out of the thousands in the world. If it would not have existed, the world would not have stopped working. Then probably some other language would have been considered as the global language.

If English did not exist, there would definitely be a dearth of one common global language throughout the world, and various other languages would have gotten a chance to rule the world with their widespread use.

If so, you'd be speaking German when you pose this question! The relevance of English as we know it was not guaranteed, even if one ignores the fact that the Germanic tribes that lived in the country that would later bear their name (England) would have developed a language that was a fusion of Saxon...

If so, you'd be speaking German when you pose this question! The relevance of English as we know it was not guaranteed, even if one ignores the fact that the Germanic tribes that lived in the country that would later bear their name (England) would have developed a language that was a fusion of Saxon and Romano-British. When the Dutch were at the height of their power in the 16th and 17th centuries, English was discarded as a minor Germanic dialect. Because of British imperial dominance over the Dutch, we speak English. Logically, a Dutch dialect might have been as prevalent as English is now if the Dutch had maintained their control over international trade (and kept hold of "New Amsterdam aka New York). read less

If the English language never came to exist, the world would be a very different place. English is the most widely spoken language for international communication. It is the language of business, science, technology, and entertainment. If English never existed, these fields would be very different. English is a hybrid language that has borrowed words and phrases from many other languages. If English never existed, these words and phrases would still exist, but they would be scattered across different languages. This would make it more difficult for people to learn about different cultures and to communicate with people from different cultures. It is clear that English plays a significant role in the world today. read less

Humans have always been adaptive if the English language didn't come to exist, humans would have chosen the next most easy and widespread language, some examples would be German, Mandarine, etc.
