- Abstract
English not only is the most widely circulated language, but also the global language in the world. Therefore, the study of the English language is enduring. However, most of the past studies focused on the language itself, such as the language's pronunciation, vocabulary, syntax, semantics and so on. The studies have emphasized the communicative function of English as an international language, neglecting other influencing factors of language application, hence, the studies in the past somehow lack multidimensional research. Language is not an isolated existence, but is closely related to other disciplines. Therefore, in the study of the English language, integrating with other disciplines to develop further research on English becomes necessary. Without doubt, multidimensional research perspective to comprehensively analyze and sort out the different meanings of the English language is made the research issue.
