Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In this article, entitled "The linguistic empire of English: issues and challenges for scientific communication.", we examine the impact of English as a lingua franca on scientific communication and the dynamics of power and linguistic identity. Researchers perceive English as an indispensable tool for the visibility and dissemination of knowledge, but retain an attachment to their mother tongue. The sociolinguistic framework of the study explores the interactions between languages on ResearchGate, highlighting the duality between the usefulness of English and the preservation of mother tongues.
