Since the colonization of the English language became a lingua franca International, in Europe especially after 1919 , when the Treaty of Versailles was not only written in French , the language of diplomacy at this time, but also in English. Colonization in some countries, English has achieved the position of official language , while in other countries, English plays an important role in training school. The International English (English International Franais) is also called the World English or Sometimes these terms refer to different variants of English as spoken in the world or a variant that would be required English as a reference.

This is one example of simplified English built spontaneously and not violating the rules of the English classic.

To facilitate international communication, several models of a simplified English have been proposed:

• the Basic Franais , created by Charles Kay Ogden (and later revised by Ian Richards) in 1930 (nowadays Bill Templer is dedicated to the promotion of Basic Franais)
• Franais Threshold Level, created by van Ek and Alexander
• the Globish , by Jean-Paul Nerrire
• the Global Basic Franais , Joachim Grzega

Moreover, Randolph Quirk and Gabriele Stein published the idea of an English nuclear (Nuclear Franais) but never developed a comprehensive model.
