English somewhen

One my teacher in Bloomsbury International once said: "English will be a multi-version language very soon! All people will have their own pidgin".
As you remember, Pidgin phenomenon is a grammatically simplified form of a language, used for communication between people not sharing a common language. Pidgins have a limited vocabulary, some elements of which are taken from local languages, and are not native languages, but arise out of language contact between speakers of other languages.
For example, there is the "makhabatization" term. It means something like a type of a tricksy love in Kazakh ethnic environment.
Thus, and I feel that this is truth, English as the general environment is a cultural component for everybody on the planet already now. Even for those who "Hm-m-m-m... I DO NOT SPEAK ENGLISH".
Booble gum and Coke, Cossack boots from Texas with cowboy hats above a mongolian phenotipe face and the "attack" term in Friday public discourse about the danger to be attacked by devils from a muezzin in the central Uzynagash mosque...
All of us are while doomed to be in such a universal language environment. English is the Lingva Franca of the world for the nearest centuries while we penitrate in other spaces. Either to other planets or different virtual realities or something else. And only after this, when we will meet different and dominating SPACELY MORE HUGE IDEAS, we change our preferences.
But, don't be fooled. English also will be ostracized, as we are seeing with Russian in Kazakhstan now. Such is human nature. C'est la vie! 
As the actor Raikin (junior) once sang in the musical "Trufaldino from Bergamo": "And I am always for those who win".
But, I want to reassure you, no one of you will see this. Ha-ha-ha.
Pray and repent!
