- Abstract
This study explores the anthropologic implication of linguistic system, scrutinizing its historical implications of English dominance under colonial influence. It aims to provide a discourse into time to unveil the impermeable layer of colonial hegemony and cultural oppression to open a discussion on the social and historic manifestation of linguistics. It adopts the “Pecking Order” philosophy within the ecology to create analogy of English hegemony, hence emphasis its persistence in language suppression and highlights a social trajectory.
