What can be a source of attractiveness in English for a learner? Here I present an idea which might be such one.

English is a *real* natural language. That is, in this point English is not like Esperanto or Klingon. Esperanto is an artificial language. Klingon is a fictional language. An extreme analogy of such difference is how a person in a novel and a real person differ. Or how a car illustration and a real car differ.

Every word of English has its real history, whether knowable or unknowable. This sets for it the depth of reality. And it really nicely functions to convey meanings by forming sentences. You may even marvel at this simple fact every time you write out an English sentence. The same, of course, would be said of the Japanese language when one sees this language from the outside as a foreign language.

English is an indispensable component to make up the real English world (the Anglosphere) in which English speaking people live. It is just as Japanese is such for me. By peering into the details and the historicity of the English language, I may make keen the sense of reality that there are English speaking world and its people. That is, it's the sense that English is thus a partial fabric of the fabric of reality.
